Dear all,

I wanted to generate my primary key with GUIDGenerator, but my metadata uses Hibernate Annotation instead of XML. How do I do this? I couldn't figure it out and find related documentation regarding this.

Thanks in advance

The Hibernate book gives an answer, i.e.:

@org.hibernate.annotations.GenericGenerator(
name="hibernate-uuid"
strategy="uuid"
)

Have a look into the docs or the source code of annotations and I think you find what you exactly need.

This is an example from one of our entities.

@Id
@GenericGenerator(name = "generator", strategy = "uuid")
@GeneratedValue(generator = "generator")
@Column(name = "AGMT_CNTRCT_LINE_V_ID", unique = true, nullable = false, insertable = true, updatable = false)
