SchemaExportTask not working with annotated classes

dimo.velev · **Posted:** Sun Apr 17, 2005 5:33 am

Hi,

I use the schema export ant task in order to export DDL for some annotated classes. Now there is no way (or am I wrong?) to specify that the task should use a AnnotationConfiguration instead of the normal one. I have modified the file so now it works only with AnnotationConfiguration. I just wanted to make sure you know of the problem. If you already have a solution I would surely be interested in it.

Thanks,
Dimo

Hibernate version: 3.0

The ant task supports it AFAIK

Thanks, but where do I find the class? Which package?

I am also trying to figure out how to use SchemaExport along with Hibernate Annotations.

I ran accross several mailing list posts that mentioned these new tools:
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/h ... /tool/ant/

I was able to download the HibernateExt project from CVS, switch into the tools subsirectory, and build (via ant) the hibernate-tools.jar file which contains the new org.hibernate.tool.ant.HibernateToolTask. However, I have not figured out how to run it succesfully.

I tried the following ant config:

Code:

        <taskdef name="hibernatetool" classname="org.hibernate.tool.ant.HibernateToolTask" 
            classpathref="my.classpath"/>
        <hibernatetool destdir="target">
            <classpath refid="my.classpath"/>
            <annotationconfiguration/>
            <hbm2ddl drop="true" outputfilename="schema.sql"/>
        </hibernatetool>

and that resulted in the following output from ant:

Code:

[hibernatetool] 1. task: hbm2ddl (Generates database schema)

BUILD FAILED
java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError

Any help would be appreciated.

I also had problems running the cvs version, so I wrote my own task. If you cannot figure how to do this, i can send you the ant tasks java source file.

Sure, I'd like to see your ant task source code. If it isn't too long, why not just paste it here as a reply so others can see it too. Thanks!
