hibernate-3.0.5 - tools 3.1 alpha 5

Hibernates create composite keys like EmployerId, EmployeeId. How can I change the default naming strategy? Ie...I would like the composite keys to be called EmployerPK or, perhaps, EmployeeOid.

I checked pojo.vm and a couple of other .vm and reveeng.xml, but nothing popped out.

Please help!
Thanks,

what happens when you set composite-id[@class] to "EmployeeOid" in x.hbm.xml ?

3.3 Custom strategy
It is possible to implement a user strategy. Such strategy must implement org.hibernate.cfg.reveng.ReverseEngineeringStrategy.

It is recommended that one uses the DelegatingReverseEngineeringStrategy and provide a public constructor which takes another ReverseEngineeringStrategy as argument. This will allow you to only implement the relevant methods and provide a fallback strategy.

Example of custom delegating strategy which converts all column names that endswith "PK" into a property named "id".

public class ExampleStrategy extends DelegatingReverseEngineeringStrategy {

public ExampleStrategy(ReverseEngineeringStrategy delegate) {
super(delegate);
}

public String columnToPropertyName(TableIdentifier table, String column) {
if(column.endsWith("PK")) {
return "id";
} else {
return super.columnToPropertyName(table, column);
}
}
}

you cant control that at the moment. Add a jira request for it.

We should have a getCompositeKeyClassName(<something>)

I read the piece below, but it said nothing about class name. Ie...SubscriberOid instead of SubscriberId. Also, I could not find any java API doc :)

I'll add it to JIRA. It will be about a param to control the class name of the composite key class.

Thanks,
