POJO from HBM file

Question

Hi all,

I am new to hibernate and I would create a POJO from the xxx.hbm.xml file.

Is it possible? Please reply.

Answer 1

Hibernate Tools includes an Ant task that allows you to generate Java code from mapping files (among other things). Check section 4.4.2. POJO java code exporter (<hbm2java>) in the documentation.

Hibernate3 Maven Plugin also supports this (c hibernate3:hbm2java).
