<div>Hi all,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Got the breakthru in problem I narrated in my earlier mail. Its because of my ignorance ;-).</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Column annotations are controlled via "<font size="2">XProperty property". Soon I should start thinking about presentation layer modifications.</font></div>
<div><font size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font size="2">Please let me know if you have any inputs.</font></div>
<div> </div>
<div>Regards,</div>
<div>Prasanna<br><br> </div>

<div>Hi all,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I have done the following</div>
<div> </div>
<div>1. Created org.hibernate.annotations.Column.java </div>
<div> (Well, I know its very minor task ;-) )</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>2. Understood code flow from </div>
<div> </div>
<div>AnnotationConfiguration --> AnnotationBinder (bindClass and EJB3Column.buildColumnFromAnnotation)--> EntityBinder(processComplementaryTableDefinitions).</div>
<div> </div>
<div>3. Specifically I understood how org.hibernate.annotations.Table (comment) works</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Hence I tried to add column comment in similar fashion. The first hurdle I am facing is, the ColumnAnnotation class is not available at bindClass().</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Here the code:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>AnnotationBinder.java {</div>
<div> </div>
<div>---</div>
<div>bindClass(..) {</div>
<div> </div>
<div>----</div>
