We have developed a reporting process that only needs to run once a month and depends on the creation of some data in another system. We are planning to have the job which creates the data we need kick off another java job which generates the data for a web report.

The code we've developed works just fine in a web application. When we try to execute the same code from a main method we run into issues with hbm files being found. I suspect this is because the initialization which is done by the server isn't occuring in the batch mode we are attempting to use.

Can anyone point me to a resource or suggest how we can overcome these issues?

Thanks,

Chris

You must configure your classpath to include the root directory for package which contains hbm. For example, if you have the following directory structure:
classes/com/company/project/model/

"classes" dir must be in your classpath.

Kind Regards.

The hibernate files all live within a jar which is referenced in the buildpath of the batch project set up in WSAD.

The references within that jar point to files that are in the referenced places within the jar's components.

Do Elaborate us to help you out.
I run hibernate code in WSAD and don't see any problem.

Show us the code and error traces etc.....

It actually turned out to be an issue in a hibernate utility class and how it was setting its self up to reference the hbm files. Basically it was appending the whole project path to the package on to the reference tot he hbm files in the jar and of course those files in a package with a path that looked like that did not exist.

Thanks for the help.

Are hbm.xml and .class together at the same directory? I never used hbm files into a .jar without put them together with .class.

Kind Regards,
