RunSchemaExport does nothing

Hi,

I'm trying to generate a ddl with the Hibernate tools plugin from within Eclipse by right clicking on a hibernate configuration and then choosing "Run Schema Export". Yet nothing happens afterwards; no errors, no warnings. Has anyone used this feature? My Hibernate config and mapping files should be okay because I can use other features of the tools (generate POJO, etc.) and I actually did manage to create the DB by by using the autoddl feature in the cfg file but I can't use it interactively.

I am using the following components:
Eclipse 3.2 (WTP 1.5)
Hibernate 3.2
Hibernate Tools Plugin 3.2 beta 9
MySQL 5.0
Tutorial example supplied with Hibernate 3.2

Thanks in advance.

Did you try generating the sql doing using the Hbm2Ddl code directly to identify the problem?

Something like:

Code:

public static void createDDLScript()
{
   SchemaExport schemaExport = new SchemaExport(getConfiguration()).setHaltOnError(true);
   schemaExport.setFormat(true).setDelimiter(";");
   schemaExport.setOutputFile(OUTPUT_FILE).create(true, false);
}

To create a configuration object, just point to the hibernate.cfg.xml file.
