After upgrading to Hibernate 3.5.1 the Hibernate3 maven plugin and the ant export ddl task blows up on me.

Is there an alternative?

We got it working by adding depencies to the plugin config..

<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate3-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.2</version>
<configuration>
<components>
<component>
<name>hbm2ddl</name>
<implementation>annotationconfiguration</implementation>
</component>
</components>
<componentProperties>
<configurationfile>/src/main/resources/hibernate.cfg.xml
</configurationfile>
<outputfilename>schema.sql</outputfilename>
<export>false</export>
<update>true</update>
</componentProperties>
</configuration>
