[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HBX-929) Enable base class generation

Enable base class generation ---------------------------- Key: HBX-929 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HBX-929 Project: Hibernate Tools Issue Type: New Feature Components: datagen, hbm2java Affects Versions: 3.2beta9 Environment: Hibernate 3.2.3 Reporter: Norman Franke Fix For: 3.2beta10 Using the reverse engineering features, I'd like to be able to have it generate base classes (e.g. TableNameBase) and yet tell Hibernate to use the parent class, e.g. TableName. I read that one can add a meta attribute "generated-class" to do this but (a) there is no way to make this happen via the Eclipse Plugin and (b) even if one modifies the template to add it, it doesn't seem to pick it up (it does end up in the resulting hbm.xml files.) The Run... GUI can't seem to generate Java files from the hbm.xml files either, so one must reverse engineer anyway, which is another annoyance.
