POJO generation should have full contructor as an option -------------------------------------------------------- Key: HBX-970 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HBX-970 Project: Hibernate Tools Issue Type: Bug Components: hbm2java, reverse-engineer Affects Versions: 3.2beta9 Environment: Hibernate3, Oracle 10g Reporter: Alberto A. Flores When using hbm2java (for reverse engineering the database to generate POJOs), there is no real way to declare full constructor generation as an option (which is not required in Hibernate anyway). In a large table, I found the error of "can't create a constructor with more than 255 parameters" (which could easily grow if you use inheritance). We had to fix the PojoContructors.ftl code to never generate that full contructor. Potential fixes: - Find a way to initialize the BasicPojoClass to initialize the needFullContructor using <property> in the hbm2java - Using the <property> feature within hbm2java, fix the PojoConstructor.ftl to check for a variable that is (optionally) visible by virtue of the <property> tag instead of always checking for "pojo.needFullConstructor" - Provide a way to replace BasicPojoClass as part of the hbm2java task. By default, this uses the hardcoded code to always use this template. -- 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
