Hi,
I don't require auto generated primary key to save in the database as my records are generated by the layer which is above hibernate and also generates the primary key for the record.
How do I implement this feature through Hibernate in .hbm.xml file

Is it important to have the generator class. Or should I implement something like composite key class.

thanks
regards

Just use the Assigned generator type instead of Identity.
