Ohhhhhh.... if I understand your question correctly, you are wondering
where are the CREATE TABLE statements and so on. Is that correct?

If so, it is actually Hibernate that does all the work, not HSQLDB. On
startup, Hibernate creates your database schema for you from reading
the Java classes that are annotated with @Entity. This is configured
in the persistence.xml file:

<property name="hibernate.archive.autodetection" value="class"/>
<property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" value="create"/>

If you are more comfortable with MySQL, you can change the configuration
in that same persistence.xml file. You'll need to specify the JDBC
driver
class, MySQL dialect, connection url, username and password. Don't
forget
to add the MySQL JDBC jar.

If that is not what you were asking about, my apologies for
misunderstanding again! Let me know.

I think the easiest way is to set up an XML file in the $CATALINA_HOME
/conf/Catalina/localhost directory and make it point to your project.
There is a auto redeploy option (can't remember if it is on by default),
with which the web app will be reloaded when you recompile.

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
Freddy
