Hello,

Is it possible to have the discriminator-value for a class be an SQL or PL/SQL function? for instance instead of saying discriminator-value="44", I would like to say discriminator-value="creditcard.getId()" so I don't hardcode the type IDs for my objects into the XML. my discriminator element looks like this:

<discriminator column="TYPE_ID" type="long" not-null="true"/>

and I am using class hierarchy per table mapping.

I read on the roadmap that Hibernate 3 will support more complex discriminators. What exactly is that referring to? Any idea when it will be out? :-)

Thanks a lot,

Calin
