I've used the Hibernate reverse engineering tool to generate mappings and java code for an existing underlying database (schema cannot be changed) but when I attempt to load the HAR archive on my JBOSS server I get:

2006-09-26 10:32:57,619 DEBUG [org.hibernate.jmx.HibernateServiceMBean] Error was
org.hibernate.PropertyNotFoundException: Could not find a getter for parentDocument in class com.sugarcrm.DocumentRevisions
at org.hibernate.property.BasicPropertyAccessor.createGetter(BasicPropertyAccessor.java:282)

I have been banging my head against the wall here - I googled for anything related to this error but have only found posts about the lettering convensions for JavaBeans (ie: dont use aBa for a name) which does not apply here. I have tried writing the hbm.xml file manually and get the exact same results... gahh!

The underlying database does not have any relationships between tables defined, this appears to be due to the design of the business layer (PHP based).

Hibernate version:
3.2.0.cr2 (via JBOSS 4.0.4.GA

Mapping documents:
--- DocumentRevisions.hbm.xml ---
<hibernate-mapping>
<class name="com.sugarcrm.DocumentRevisions" table="document_revisions" catalog="sugarcrm">
<comment></comment>
<id name="id" type="string">
<column name="id" length="36" />
<generator class="assigned" />
</id>
<many-to-one name="parentDocument" class="com.sugarcrm.Documents" fetch="select">
<column name="document_id" length="36">
<comment></comment>
</column>
</many-to-one>
</class>
</hibernate-mapping>

--- Documents.hbm.xml ---
<hibernate-mapping>
<class name="com.sugarcrm.Documents" table="documents" catalog="sugarcrm">
<comment></comment>
<id name="id" type="string">
<column name="id" length="36" />
<generator class="assigned" />
</id>
<many-to-one name="documentRevisions" class="com.sugarcrm.DocumentRevisions" fetch="select">
<column name="document_revision_id" length="36">
<comment></comment>
</column>
</many-to-one>
<set name="allRevisions" inverse="true">
<key>
<column name="document_id" length="36">
<comment></comment>
</column>
</key>
<one-to-many class="com.sugarcrm.DocumentRevisions" />
</set>
</class>
</hibernate-mapping>

--- Documents.java ---
public class Documents implements java.io.Serializable {

private String id;

private DocumentRevisions documentRevisions;

private Set allRevisions = new HashSet(0);

public String getId() { return this.id; }

public void setId(String id) {this.id = id;}

public DocumentRevisions getDocumentRevisions() {return this.documentRevisions; }

public void setDocumentRevisions(DocumentRevisions documentRevisions) {this.documentRevisions = documentRevisions; }

public Set getAllRevisions() {return this.allRevisions; }

public void setAllRevisions(Set allRevisions) { this.allRevisions = allRevisions; }

}


Code between sessionFactory.openSession() and session.close():
None - this is a JBOSS .HAR archive using the hibername mbean

Name and version of the database you are using:
MySQL 4.1.14

Oops - forgot the code for DocumentRevisions:


public class DocumentRevisions implements java.io.Serializable {

private String id;
private Documents parentDocument;
private Set documentses = new HashSet(0);

public String getId() { return this.id; }

public void setId(String id) { this.id = id; }

public Documents getParentDocument() { return this.parentDocument; }

public void setParentDocument(Documents parentDocument) { this.parentDocument = parentDocument; }

public Set getDocumentses() { return this.documentses;}

public void setDocumentses(Set documentses) { this.documentses = documentses; }

}
