In following the directions from link <http://www.hibernate.org/152.html> I was amazed how the schema was auto created.

Upon analyzing the build file, and java src, the only place I see where this could occur would be here:

.setProperty(Environment.HBM2DDL_AUTO, "create");
within the configuration area.

If so, does this actually read the classes, or the hbm files to do its job? What is the workflow? I added a field to one of the .hbm files, but it would not create the schema until I added the field into the java src and recompiled?

Any info on this would help out, and also if it is in the book, I cannot seem to find it.

Thanks,

Use the regular user forum, I don't have the time to babysit you here.
