[Hibernate] Metadata Annotation commit

[Emmanuel Bernard]

Since Joshua and Max did commit yesterday, I can't resist to commit JSR-175 annotation for hibernate soon :-) For now (and I think in the future), it is a pure extension of Hibernate core and Hibernate won't require JDK 1.5. So I'll create a new project in CVS (say HibernateMetadata) that will depend on Hiberate3.jar. This project will be tighly coupled with Hibernate core (any update to the Binder class or any class of the mapping package will have an impact on it), so they should keep the exact same versioning and release day. It is not really external to Hibernate so putting it in HibernateExt is not really appropriate, I think. I won't embed (commit) Hibernate3.jar since I consider it to be a bad thing, I'll keep the hiber8ide way to link with Hibernate core, I was intend to use Maven but people here are not really big fans of it and I want to keep the same subset of tools that Hibernate depends on. My first commit won't be alpha: for now I can map a small subset of what Hibernate can do. I'll commit on HEAD since Hibernate will move v22branch into HEAD soon (won't it ?) Any comment welcome, I planned to do that in the middle of the week. -- Emmanuel Bernard [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.hibernate.org
