Below is my hibernate-reveng.xml. However, my POJOS are getting Long and Integer and not the primitive long and int.

Anyone knows why?

Thanks,

<type-mapping>
<sql-type jdbc-type="BIGINT" hibernate-type="long" />
<sql-type jdbc-type="INTEGER" hibernate-type="integer"/>
<sql-type jdbc-type="TINYINT" hibernate-type="byte"/>
<sql-type jdbc-type="SMALLINT" hibernate-type="short"/>
<sql-type jdbc-type="VARCHAR" hibernate-type="java.lang.String" />
</type-mapping>

because the tools currently uses type.getReturnedClass() which for primitives will give you the Object version. This was done for consistency across all types including usertypes.

We might introduce the special behavior that if the typename is a primitive name (e.g. int, long, etc.) we will use the primitive version (but need to be a special rule since e.g. binary or big_decimal would not be good ;)

Maybe for the next release ??? :)

contribute a patch that works and you bet ,)

I truly wish I could contribute a patch. Anyway, is it currently possible to use the Ant task and generate POJOs with a name prefix? Like BaseEmployee instead of just Employee and BaseEmployer instead of just Employer?

I am thinking about mucking with java.vm, but not sure how that will mess up the auto-generated mapping files...

currently you can specify it per class with <meta attribute="generated-class">.

i just committed a fix that makes the tool take the literal primitive type, if you really want the object version then write the object version there or use the meta attribute ... i think that will do what people expect.

In which ANT task should I specify this meta attribute? hbm2java or in cfg2hbm or both?

Thanks,

its specified in the hbm.xml file.

I was thinking about something like the below...

codegen.xml:

<codegen>
<generate prefix="Base" renderer="net.sf.hibernate.tool.hbm2java.BasicRenderer"/>
<generate renderer="net.sf.hibernate.tool.hbm2java.BasicRenderer">
<param name="generate-concrete-empty-classes">true</param>
<param name="baseclass-prefix">Base</param>
</generate>
</codegen>

I used to call hbm2java like below:

build.xml:

<hbm2java config="codegen.xml"
output="${build.gen-src.java.dir}">
<fileset dir="${build.gen-src.hibernate.dir}">
<include name="**/*.hbm.xml"/>
</fileset>
</hbm2java>

Is that still possible?

Thanks...

Max,

I really appreciate your efforts. I've asked for help before and you have always been most helpful and always ready to help!

Thanks again!

see the docs on tools.hibernate.org about how the tools work for h3.

I must be thick or the docs need to be updated :)

we dont have the base prefix for everything feature at the moment in the h3 tools.

Hey Max, I am making use of hibernate-tools-3.1.0.alpha5 which was released one month back. It would be great if you can tell me when can i expect this fix in a Distribution.
