Yeah, we thought about that. I dismissed the idea because it was meaning to add 2 triggers for each table in the application. (and so far, we are not using triggers)
One solution was to have it in the mapping so it can be generated. But that's not possible by itself. So that's why we just upgraded the base class. We don't want do generate java, we already have it. We need the hbm. In fact, all the current tools are awesome for a project that starts from scratch with hibernate. But there's not much support for project conversion from as far as I know. I'm trying to fill the hole. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Christian Bauer" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Henri Tremblay" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, January 20, 2004 10:05 PM Subject: Re: [Hibernate] Tools > On 20 Jan (21:52), Henri Tremblay wrote: > > > An existing application is not really easy to convert but it's going pretty well. The first thing that was missing was to be able to create hbm.xml files. I tried class2hbm (and improved it a little) but it wasn't enough. So on my free time I've started a HbmGenerator that creates a hbm.xml file from the class, table and a field mapping between both. It currently goes pretty well. I can map normal fields, user types (that we use a lot) and tonigh I'll try to add associations. So I thought you might be interested to see this app (and possibly add it to the hibernate tool set).
