Thanks for the response. Meanwhile i have detected that code IS generated. Due to the error there is no refresh of the directory list inside eclipse. A simple refresh revealed the generated code. All classes are there. But due to the error a many2one dependenxy must be missing. I will investigate further and compare the genereted Code with my expectations. Some questions? Is code generated class by class? Or it is generated in turns,e.g.: first all the java code for all classes, then table annotations for all classes, then dependencys ... I am asking because i am missing named querys which are present in the hbm.xml but not in the generated code. Perhaps the error occurs when these querys are parsed.
