Hi,
Can we use XDoclet with Hibernate Version 3.0 . Or is there any other tool available for generating XML mapping files for 3.0?

Thanks,
shilpa

jsr 175 annotation is what you need!!
check it if you want to try.
Emmanuel is working on a tutorial, it should be available soon.
you'll love it

I think JSR175 annotation in supported in JDK 1.5. Can I use it with JDK1.3?

It looks to me (observations) that XDoclet support for Hibernate 3.0 (new features etc) might be supported in XDoclet2 http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/xdoclet-plugins/ since it is being worked on and hibernate support is active. XDoclet 1.2.x appears to have slowed to a crawl so I would not expect it. Our focus is forward and thus its Annotations.

How different is 3.0 mapping ?

I just posted a question regarding availability of annotations... are they included in Hibernate3.0a? Do you know when the tutorial will be available?

Thanks a lot, regards
Jose

hi ko5tik,

the best is to download the new dtd (cvs), you'll see that the core is pretty the same but we now have much more mapping features, there will be some work for xdoclet to support this

That's why I'm asking... I'm not sure, whether to start new 3.0 plugin, or just
add another subtask.

How reusable would be the mappings ? ( Better asked, is 3.0 mapping superset of 2.1.7 ? )

some attributes are going to be deprecated but still supported so we can say 3.0 mapping superset of 2.1.7.

Anyway, as it is very important for xdoclet, i think another team member point of view will be appreciated.

Let's wait a little.

There is not much choice though... Folks maintaining and using 1.2 are unlikely to mount an attempt, and there are only 2 ( or 3 ) of us on plugin for 2.0 - but I got about 70% of 2.1.7 features covered. And I'm not against contributions. And it is easy to do - jelly snippet followind dtd, and test cases...
Everybody is welcome.

And as for documenting tags - we got automatic build process which builds / deploys documentation into confluence, so javadoc enhancements for tag definitions are also welcome...

You can find a first draft of tutorial in CVS HibernateExt/metadata/doc...

Very cool. I have a noob question: is this only for EJB entities? Or can I use this stuff for POJOs?

EJB3 Entities are POJOs
