[b]Hibernate version:[/b] 2.1.6

I would like to know if it's possible to have properties from hibernate.properties or some other location to be subsituted in mapping files.

instead of :

<class
name="my.class.Name"
table="tablename"
schema="schemaname"
...

I want to be able to do:

<class
name="my.class.Name"
table="tablename"
schema="${my.propertyfile.schemaname}"
...

Is this possible to bind this at runtime? I can do the subsitution at compile time using XDoclet and Ant, but I would rather define it in a separate property file and just have to change the value in one place without re-compiling.

Thanks!

Should be possible to write a wrapper/helper-class around configuration to do this.
