hi,

I am trying to use hibernate 3 from tomcat but I am running into problem reading my mapping files. I deployed my application as a war into tomcat. I want to use entitymanager so I use the following code:


When attempt to add hbm files into my configration, the server is not able to find them. I added a print statement to see where tomcat is looking for the files:



which is a path relative to the tomcat install. My app is deployed at C:\Program Files\Tomcat 5.5\webapps\myapp

I tried to change the format I am passing to the Ejb3Configuration but it always try to look in the bin directory of tomcat. Short of using absloute path, I can not think of anything else. Any suggestions?

I would appreciate any help on this. It seems that my hbm files have to go under my Tomcat 5.5\bin\ but I am sure that there is a way to place them inside my war. Any suggestions?

Khalid

Use some other form of adding a persistent class.
For example: cfg.addClass(User.class);

That would work if I annotate the entites. However I still need to use the hbm files for my hql queries so I need to figure out how to include them using the relative path in my war.

Khalid

Why don't you simply add mappings through cfg file?

since I am using the entitymanager, I thought that I need to use persistence.xml file to list my hbm files. Last I checked listing hbm files within a persistence.xml was not supported. So I am back at trying to use Ejb3Configuration and trying to add files to it.

thanks,

Khalid

Add this to your persistence.xml


And then simply add mappings into cfg.
