Hi everyone,

I have define two table views in my Oracle database and I have primary keys define for those views. I am trying to use Middlegen to generate the hibernate xml files but I cannot find a way to define primary keys manually in middlegen. Is there anyway that I can define primary key manually through middlegen so that I can include my table view with primary key?? Thanks

Vivian

To point thinks out a bit. So you run middlegen and it is not able so see the primary keys ? Should be a warning on startup. Then I would suggest to get a JDBC3 driver for Oracle. should be on the OTN. If only the views doesnot contain the primary keys then just generate the mapping files and modify theses. Should be straight forward if you read the hibernate documentation carefully. Btw using Middlegen for generating two mapping files is like in german called: "Mit Kannonen auf Spatzen schiessen".

best regards

Middlegen uses the meta data from the JDBC driver for the field properties. You cannot (currently) tell Middlegen that a field is a primary key.

Hi everyone,

I have found a solution. When you download the new Middlegen version from CVS, you can use pkcolumnsoverride attribute in table element and this attribute can declare primary key for table view. Thanks for all the inputs. :) :)

It is true the CVS version has more support in this area. Glad to see you reading the info.
