I am using the Middlegen-Hibernate-R5 plugin to generate hibernate HBM and java classes.

I would like to use a sequence as the generator and each table have its own sequence. For example

Customer uses customer_seq
order uses order_seq

I see that it is possible to set this in the middlegen GUI. It is redundant and tedious to set this for all tables though. Is it possible to set defaults on the plugin in the ant task. For example

<hibernate destination="${hibernate-src.dir}" package="${base.package}.data" javaTypeMapper="middlegen.plugins.hibernate.HibernateJavaTypeMapper" genXDocletTags="true" defaultGenerator="sequence" sequencePattern="{0}_seq"/>

Any thoughts?

Currently you cannot do this via the Ant script (but you can set the generator to native using Ant). You can change the properties by editing the preference file. This is a good idea. I'll consider adding to my todo list.

I'm having the same issue. That would be really cool if you could implement that. By default postgresql uses a pattern of <tablename>_<idname>_seq
