I am new to Hibernate Tools, so I'm exploring its features in Eclipse.

I have a mapping like:



When I try the code "from TableC" in eclipe's HQL editor, I get a result, but I can only see the "propertyC" property, and not the composite-id.

On a composite-id that uses an ID class, I can see the IDClass name but can't access its properties (all of this in Eclipse's "properties" area of the Hibernate View).

Is this a feature of hibernate tools or is there a way to access the composite-id attributes on that area?

hmm might be an oversight in the property view implementation.

put it in jira.

note: you can do "select a.id.version, a.id.tableA, a from TableC as a"
if you want

Will do that. I believe I've found another bug:

in Eclipse, autocompletion of the "table" element in .hbm.xml files works. The problem is with capital letters. At least in PostgreSQL, for hibernate to work you need to write the table name in between `` (example, `TableName`).
Unfortunately, auto complete won't add the ``. If you manually add them, you'll lose the column names when writing the properties.

If you leave the table name without the ``, the query won't work (it will say it can't find tablename - with a small "t" and "n").
