Hi!

I am just new to Hibernate Tool for eclipse and I am trying to create a hibernate.cfg.xml file. My problem is that when I am using the Wizard, I choose MySQL as Database dialect and the only option that I can choose for Driver class is org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver. I would like to use com.mysql.jdbc.Driver like driver but I have no clue how to that. If I edit the generated file and add com.mysql.jdbc.Driver manually, when I try to open the Hibernate Code Generation wizard, I get a unable to load driver exception.

Any ideas?

Hibernate version: 3.1.3

Eclipse version: 3.1.1

Hibernate Tools version: 3.1.0-beta4

Name and version of the database you are using: MySQL 5.0.19

you do know that you can just edit the comboboxes directly in the wizard, right ?

And for the driver issue then remember to add the driver to the console configuraiton classpath.

Thanks for the answer!
You comment has suggested me some ideas that I would like to share.

Uhm ... Yes, I have type there the driver that I would like to use: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

These three words, console configuraiton classpath, suggest different things for me:

Do you mean when you run, for instance, ant(console) and you add the library to the classpath?
Or do you mean that there is a Hibernate Console or something similar and I can add my driver just there?

Sorry for the silly answer!

I have found what you said! It was in front of my face! There is a Hibernate Console Configuration that was what I hoped to find!

Thanks a lot
