ReverseEng: Package ignored if class name specified

fisherv · **Posted:** Mon Jun 19, 2006 1:20 pm

Tool versions:
JDK 1.5.0_04
Hiberate Tools 3.1.0beta5
Eclipse 3.1.2

I'm using Hibernate Tools to reverse engineer tables into hbm and java files. When I specify a class name for a table in reveng.xml, the generated HBM and Java files end up in the base directory instead of in the package specified. I've tried specifying the package in the <table-filter> and in the tools reverse engineering run config. Here's a reduced version of the hibernate.reveng.xml:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-reverse-engineering PUBLIC "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Reverse Engineering DTD 3.0//EN" "http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-reverse-engineering-3.0.dtd" >

<hibernate-reverse-engineering>
        <table-filter match-name="SEC_.*"  
                 package="com.teoco.common.security.model" />
   <table name="SEC_ROLE" ></table>
   <table name="SEC_USERS" class="User"></table>
</hibernate-reverse-engineering>

Running the hibernate code generation on this file sends the "User" files to the default package (no package) while the SecRole files are sent to the specified package. Generated files excerpts: [imports removed below]

Code:

// default package
// Generated Jun 19, 2006 1:15:42 PM by Hibernate Tools 3.1.0.beta5

/**
 * User generated by hbm2java
 */
public class User implements java.io.Serializable {

and

Code:

package com.teoco.common.security.model;

// Generated Jun 19, 2006 1:15:42 PM by Hibernate Tools 3.1.0.beta5

/**
 * SecRole generated by hbm2java
 */
public class SecRole implements java.io.Serializable {

Any suggestions? Is this known? Didn't find it in the forum.

Thanks,
Vick

put it in jira - we should allow the package to be appended to the classname if it does not contain a dot.

Instead of attempting to specify a package in the table element filter, plus a class name in the table element, I just specified the fully-qualified class name in the table element "class" property. That does exactly what I need.

Thanks Max!

I put it in as an improvement to Tools. Assigned # HBX-691. Thanks again.
