Hi, I just started to play with the Auction example in the hibernate-2.1.6 package.

I did ant eg and ran the example successfully. What puzzles me is, I don't seem to find any table creation code/script, yet three tables were created. I noticed all String values are VARCHAR(255) and NUMBER(19) (I am using Oracle). How do I control this table creation process?

Thanks a lot in advance!

sure, if configured to do so. it is based on the hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto config property. It uses its SchemaExport class to generate the DDL statements based on the mapping files. If you want to alter the way something about the table definition, its just a matter of adjusting the mapping files appropriately.

Thanks. I found the sql-type as well as the property you mentioned and that should be it.
