Hibernate Console perspective - getting Sessionfactory error

Hibernate version:Tools 3.1 beta 4

First time tring to use the Hibernate Console perspective and I cant get the console to create a sessionfactory.

The Error says Hibernate tools Sessionfactory error: entity class not found com.portal.model.TBLProperties

I think I have included this directory for my POJO and the one Mapping file correctly becuase I can visual see the class in the Hibernate Configuration Perspective ...under Configuations and I can also see the Database attribues as well.

What do you think could be the problem?

Thanks inadvance for your thoughts!

ever thought about adding the model classes to the classpath of the console configuration as specificed by the docs (and btw. autodetected if you start a wizard when a java project is selected) ? :)

Max,

I did do this, both manually entering the directory location and and using the wizard. Note... when using the wisard it did auto populate the directory in which my POJO exists. However, I still get the error when the sessionfactory is being created.

and the project is actually built so the classes are inside that directory ?

Hi Max,

The Class file for this java code gets built and resides in the same folder as the POJO code which is com/portal/model and I have confirmed that the class file is there.

Inventory of files in the follwoing folder...

HibernateSandbox/com/portal/model/TBLProperties.java
HibernateSandbox/com/portal/model/TBLProperties.class
HibernateSandbox/com/portal/model/TblAppProperties.hbm.xml

Hibernate Console Configuration Classpath includes ....
"HibernateSandbox/com/portal/model/"

Should this work?

no - a classpath does not work that way.

the entry in the classpath should be HibernateSandbox/ since the class name is com.port.model.something

Hi Max,

I did select that value early on but when I got the following error "Lazy Tree Error (Error while fetching childern) - Java.lang.NullpointerException".... and still do get that error

What I have currenly done is to configure Eclipse to build my project in a sepeate build directory..... and I now see that my sessionfactory has started!!!!

Thankyou for your help.
