I am trying to generate SEAM code with the newest version of Hibernate Tools; the error below is what I get. This did not seem to occur with 3.2.0 beta 7; should I regress to a stable release or is this issue known, and a fix has already been worked out?

All help appreciated.

Eclipse version: 3.2

Hibernate Tools version: 3.2.0 beta 8

Full stack trace of any exception that occurs:
org.hibernate.tool.hbm2x.ExporterException: Error while processing template seam/find.jsp.ftl
freemarker.core.InvalidReferenceException: Expression field.value.typeName is undefined on line 45, column 6 in seam/find.jsp.ftl.
freemarker.core.InvalidReferenceException: Expression field.value.typeName is undefined on line 45, column 6 in seam/find.jsp.ftl.

try and disable many-to-many detection....not sure if the seam codegen can handle many-to-many yet.

Max, thank you for the quick reply.

This error occurs even when generating the code for one table with no relationships (1..n, m..n, etc.) defined. Could it be something else?

composite id's are the normal problem.

Max, you are right; I foolishly assumed that there were primary keys defined on the table that I was mapping (but there was not and hbm.xml mapped all rows to a composite key). I will now assign a primary key and run the tools over it again. I will post to the forum if this fixes it.

Thanks again!

Yes, I was able to generate the Seam code without error, but now have some errors in deployment - so over to the Seam forums ;)
