Hey folks,

I'm trying to retrieve the DDL for a table. I've generated the class file
Alert.java. It's a simple pojo with a few fields however one of which is an enum. I've had a scour of the hibernate-tools document and can see how to generate ddl using the hibernate-tools task yet it doesn't seem to explain how to generate the ddl from solely the java. Is this possible or am I asking too much? If so is there any restrictions on the use of enums?

Thanks,
Mark

did you annotate the java so its an JPA entity ? then it should work if you use the annotationconfiguration or jpaconfiguration if you have a META-INF/persistence.xml file

To be honest I'm not familiar enough with the various extensions to try this. I'll get onto it today and post back if I can't seem to get it to work.

Thanks.

Hi Max,

honestly all I'm trying to do is to map a reference table containing three entries to a java 5 class containing an enum severity {ERROR, WARN, FATAL}

Is it possible to map java5 enums to reference tables using hibernate?

Thanks,
Mark.

not tool related, ask in the jpa/annotations user forum.
