Hi,

when I specify abstract=true for the mapping of my class, Hibernate generates a table named like the class.

But, I want to have one table per concrete class (i.e no table for the root abstract class). How could I achieve this ?

Here are some informations :

Hibernate version:3.2.0.cr4

Mapping documents:
<class name="UserProfile" abstract="true">
<id name="id" type="string" column="ID">
<generator class="uuid" />
</id>
<property name="name" />
</class>
<union-subclass name="CfUserProfile" extends="com.tennaxia.t3.common.bo.UserProfile"
table="CF_USER_PROFILES">
<property name="cf" />
</union-subclass>

then just instanciate the session factory with hbm2ddl.auto enabled and go to see the structure of the db

Name and version of the database you are using: mySQL 5.0.18

If you go to see the db (with phpMyAdmin for example), then you will see that there is a table named UserProfile, which is incorrect because I'm using the Table per concrete class with union strategy (so no properties will be stored into the root table).

Am I missing something ?

regards,
chris
