Hi all,

Think that i have member field mSomeValue in an Object. I am generating code from hibernate config file via ant tasks and it names the setter and getter as:

getmSomeValue
setmSomeValue

i supposed this is a bug play a bit with BasicPOJOClass.java to make some changes for generatiing the code as our project requires (method parameters starts with a, for example),

anyway now hibernate complains that cant find a getter for member xxx,

Even more interestingly Idea does the same thing while auto-generating the accessors but Eclipse not.

So is this a bug or is there something more I dont know about Javabean naming conventions.

Sorry for taking your time with strange topic, I dont like the convention, but whatever.

This has been discussed quite a bit in the past. You need to read up on Java Bean standards as there are some minor (My words) Quirks.

The issue with this users problem is that he want us to generate mSomeValue when the property name is MSomeValue which require a concept like a "namingstrategy" for code generation since it is not as simple as just lower casing the first letter since that would be wrong in case of e.g. URL.

Yep,

I agree with Max in some cases we are forced to make the first letter to LowerCase.

What will be the ideal solution?

have a naming strategy or something similar, but this is *really* minor in my book - has to be user/community contributed.
