I have an eclipse plugin that is a builder that will take a file annotated with xdoclet2 annotations and create the HBM.XML file from it every time the source file is saved. What I want is the ability to generate table drop and creation code form inside the the plugin. Are there any classes that I can call to make this happen.

(I can not use java5 annotations because this is for a GWT application and the client side of GWT does not support annotations)

I know there is an ant tool to do this. Is there any way I can make calls to the classes to create a schema for a java class?
