Hi,
I currently have the following table :

CREATE TABLE CONTACT (
CONTACT_ID BIGINT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
FIRST_NAME VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
LAST_NAME VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
MIDDLE_NAME VARCHAR(255) NULL,
BIRTHDAY DATETIME NULL,
SOCIAL_ID VARCHAR(255) NULL,
VERSION INT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY(CONTACT_ID)
)
TYPE=InnoDB;

I would like to render the datafield VERSION to the following hbm declaration when I use middlegen :

<version name="version" type="java.lang.Integer" column="VERSION">
<meta attribute="field-description">
@hibernate.version
column="VERSION"
</meta>
</version>

I've seen there is a declaration for that in the velocity template (hibernate.vm) but it seems it's not used.
I think I'm missing something, could you tell me what...
Thanks

The hibernate version is 2.1.4.
Middlegen version 2.1

It works fine but the version option is only shown when you have certain types setup for the property. Try setting the type to int, or long and see if that works for you.

Hi,

I've changed the type for the version field in the database to INT(9) which is converted to java.lang.Integer and also to BIGINT(18) which is converted to java.lang.Long and I've also tried with sql type NUMERIC. But the mapping is always Long or Integer. How can I change that to have a primitive int or long.

Thanks.

I was not refering to the database type. In middlegen the GUI allows you to fine tune the type for the mapping. Change it to int or long and the Version option will be available on the Property combo.
