My questions:
1. If one uses Hibernate Annotations and Spring MVC, is there a need to create the tables manually... does
Code:
<prop key="hibernate.dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.Oracle9iDialect</prop>
<prop key="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto">create</prop>
creates the table automatically?
2. Do i have to ensure that the class containing hbm2ddl exist somewhere in my application path, if so what class is that? if not where does this xml find hbm2ddl?
3. Lastly, for the above to work, do i always need import.sql?
