HBM2JAVA overwriting existing POJO's

HI
I am able to create a POJO using HBM2JAVA, after it is created I add a custom constructor in the POJO. Some of my database parameters changed so I had to go back and run middlegen again and then created the POJO's again. This in turn overwrote on my existing POJO's. Is there a way that I can append to the existing POJO's without actually deleting the old ones?

why not add the required statements to the mapping-files?

or use <meta attribute="generated-class"> to make hbm2java generate a class you can extend instead of creating the concrete class.

when I create a concrete class, this in turn has to have an abstract, I am already half way thru in creating all the domains, Is there any way I can do it to the existing classes?

what do you mean - do it with existing classes ?
