Re: Getting "association error" when reverse-engineering an existing schema with Hibernate tools

Thanks for the response.

 

The reveng.xml file is shown a few posts above, but I will repeat it here:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!DOCTYPE hibernate-reverse-engineering PUBLIC

  "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Reverse Engineering DTD 3.0//EN"

  "http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-reverse-engineering-3.0.dtd" >

 

<hibernate-reverse-engineering>

      <schema-selection match-schema="MY_SCHEMA" />

</hibernate-reverse-engineering>

 

 

Note that if I modify reveng.xml to remove the table BAZ (see post #1 for relationships between tables) then the reverse engineering succeeds:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!DOCTYPE hibernate-reverse-engineering PUBLIC

  "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Reverse Engineering DTD 3.0//EN"

  "http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-reverse-engineering-3.0.dtd" >

 

<hibernate-reverse-engineering>

      <table-filter match-schema="MY_SCHEMA" match-name="BAZ" exclude="true"/>

</hibernate-reverse-engineering>

 

I can also create another reveng.xml that will only reverse engineer the table BAZ. I thought that might solve my issue, but then I get other problems to do with mixing nullable and non-nullable columns when the session is created (or: when the generated classes are loaded), which I assume is a consequence of reverse-engineering one schema in two separate stages.
