Hi,

I'm new to Hibernate but figured after reading the draft EJB 3.0 I should learn a lot more about it!

It's been pretty easy to get going, and seems a lot faster at higher loads than EJB 2.0 entities :), but there's a level of automation in development that I sorely miss.

I'm using JBoss 3.2.x and up to now was using CMP/CMR. What was very useful with JBoss CMP was to be able to exclusively use XDoclet, and completely ignore the schema during early development, and just let JBoss CMP create/drop the tables.

Since I've got Hibernate 2 configured for JCA, I can't figure out how to set the hbm2ddl.auto property to create-drop (I am guessing it really does do the same job) since that's not a supported attribute of the hibernate JMX service.

The basic structure of the app deployment is:

I tried dropping a hibernate.cfg.xml in both hibernate.sar and hibernate.sar/meta-inf to specify the additional hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto property I think I need, but with no success.

Any pointers would be most welcome.

Thank you

Am I missing something from the docs/forums? I have scanned for the answer for 2 days but found no answer. I can't believe I'm the first person to try to do this. If I'm being dumb I'd accept that. Does anyone have any kind of pointer would help me!

This is probably not really supported in JCA adaptor at the moment.

Usually, its better to use JMX for JBoss integration.

I just moved to JBoss 3.2.6 (using a HAR instead) and all my prayers were answered.
