Hi,
I am using hibernate with spring. I dont want to use pojo so I am defining entity-name in hbm.
following are my entries.
config file
.
.
.
<bean id="sessionFactory"
class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.LocalSessionFactoryBean">
<property name="mappingResources">
<list>
<value>Rate.hbm.xml</value>
</list>
</property>
<property name="hibernateProperties">
<props>
<prop key="hibernate.dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.H2Dialect</prop>
<prop key="hibernate.connection.pool_size">10</prop>
<prop key="hibernate.show_sql">true</prop>
<prop key="hibernate.default_entity_mode">dynamic-map</prop>
</props>
</property>
<property name="dataSource">
<ref bean="dataSource"/>
</property>
</bean>
.
.
.

Rate.hbm.xml file is...

<hibernate-mapping>
<class entity-name="Rate" table="Rate">
<id name="id" column="id">
<generator class="assigned"/>
</id>
<property name="name" type="string"/>
<property name="createdDate" type="timestamp" column="createdDate"/>
</class>
</hibernate-mapping>

I am getting exception...
org.hibernate.MappingException: must specify an identifier type: Rate

However if I use <class name="beans.Rate" table="Rate"> it works fine.
Is there something wrong with the way I am defining entity-name.

I would appreciate if someone resolve the error.

thanks,
Lico
