How to configure SchemaExport in Eclipse plugin

I just started using the Hibernate eclipse plugins version 3.2.1.GA. I am able to select "Run SchemaExport" from the "Hibernate Configurations" view and it generates the correct schema in my database. The only question I have is how do I configure SchemaExport to generate a DDL file instead.

Have you read this :

try the latest beta release in jboss tools - it exposes a configurable schema exporter/update.

Ok, I have now installed JBoss Tools 3.2.2.CR1, but I still don't see a way to configure SchemaExport - checked in Eclipse Preferences window as well as in Hibernate Console Configuration window. Can you give me a hint on where I should look?

Run > Hibernate Code generation

select the schema exporter (hbm2ddl)

Ok, did that. I am now getting the following exception:

Code:

org.hibernate.console.HibernateConsoleRuntimeException: Received a NoClassDefFoundError, probably the console configuration classpath is incomplete or contains conflicting versions of the same class
Received a NoClassDefFoundError, probably the console configuration classpath is incomplete or contains conflicting versions of the same class

  org/apache/tools/ant/BuildException
    java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/tools/ant/BuildException
    org/apache/tools/ant/BuildException

I tried putting ant.jar in my project classpath as well as in my Console Configuration classpath, but that didn't help.

P.S. Other code generation (such as java and hbm.xml files) from the console is working fine.
