Dear All,

As per my project, I need to display all the column names of a table on JSP.
i.e i need to display fields on JSP dynamically.depends upon user credentials, user should get registration page& the fields on the page should come from database.
My table is like :

Id | First Name | Last Name |
-----|---------------|-----------------
1 | ram | chen |
2 | som | sun |
--------------------------------------

Now i have to get these field names(Id,First Name,Last Name) & should display these fieldson JSP

I am using hibernate3, I am using MySql databse----
How to get column names from database?

[Please note ,i dont want values in that columns,but only column names]

If any one knows please provide me the solution.

One way would be to get the property names and the manipulate

ClassMetadata classMetadata = sessionFactory.getClassMetadata(Test.class);
classMetadata.getIdentifierPropertyName(); --> for the id
classMetadata.getPropertyNames(); --> for the propertyNames[]

Hope this helps and if so please do rate
