Better error logging in IdentifierGeneratorFactory.java ------------------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-2849 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2849 Project: Hibernate3 Issue Type: Patch Components: core Affects Versions: 3.2.4.sp1, 3.3 Reporter: Antony Stubbs Priority: Minor Attachments: IdentifierGeneratorFactory.java.patch When specifying an incorrect id generator class in the hibernate mapping file, the following error messages are produced for the exception: Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: Exception building SessionFactory: could not instantiate id generator Caused by: org.hibernate.MappingException: could not instantiate id generator Caused by: org.hibernate.MappingException: could not interpret id generator strategy: com.x.persistence.sdfhibernate.SomeIdentityGenerator This doesn't show which mapping it's talking about. The patch I submitted slightly improves the message by adding the entity name: Caused by: org.hibernate.MappingException: could not instantiate id generator for entity com.x.persistence.hibernate.EntityClass admitedly I haven't tested it yet, because I am unable to get maven to build hibernate. but i'm working on that now (unable to download org.codehaus.mojo:antlr-maven-plugin:pom:2.0-SNAPSHOT) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/secure/Administrators.... - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
