I have a web app that's running with Hibernate. One of the requirements is dynamic configuration - that is, I need to have Hibernate add to its existing mappings, new files that are created at runtime. I've looked at the Configuration class, but the documentation seems to indicate that this is only good for the initial configuration. I've also looked at classes like HbmBinder, but it's not clear if this will work, or which of the binding methods to use. Can anyone suggest how I might accomplish this? Your help will be appreciated.

Hi,

I am having similar requirement,Is this Possible ?
Please reply for any other solutions or pointers for this.

You have to re-init the Configuration class and rebuild your SessionFactory, adding to it references to your new hbm.xml files, and somehow get their POJO class implementations into your application.

if your POJO class implementations need to be dynamically generated as a result of new or changed hbm.xml files, you need to perform some java-fu to get them into your application
