Reverse engg tool for hibernate with eclipse-wsad? - urgent

Hi
I found this tool "hibernate-tools-3.0alpha1" as a part of JBoss IDE.
It does the reverse engineering(generates mapping files from the database). I tried this plugin with WSAD. It doesn't seem to be working.
Could someone let me know if this tool could be used with wsad.
If NOT so, could you suggest me a tool.

Thanks,
Godhs

I had the same problem with WSAD 5.1.2. It seems to be because WSAD comes with Eclipse 2.1.3.

If you download Eclipse 3.1 M6/M7 the plugins work (although I think there are a number of issues related to the reverse engineering e.g. CHAR fields seem to be mapped to java.lang.Character rather than java.lang.String).

Hope this helps.

you have to use eclipse 3.1M6 (maybe M7) - wsad and eclipse 3.0 doesn't work with hibernate tools

3.1M6 (M7 changed stuff regarding classloaders that can result in some weird results ;(
