Hi all

In Hibernate mapping file (.hbm.xml), we are mapping the table using
<hibernate-mapping>
<class name="roseindia.tutorial.hibernate.Contact" table="CONTACT">
<id name="id" type="long" column="ID" >
<generator class="assigned"/>
</id>

My doubt is what is the usage of giving generator class="assigned" here.

please help me....

Thanks

If you use "assigned", then the application must set the id before saving the object by calling the setter method manually. If this is not your intention and this is not a natural key, you probably want to use "native" instead.

Hope this helps!
