But if there is a database connection (which you give when you right click on your entry in the 'Database Connections' view, for example), so that validation is on, this is not validated; I get catalog "sample2" cannot be resolved for table "F" But when I change "catalog" to "schema" then it is validated. So this is OK:   Entity @Table(name = "F", schema= "sample2") public class F implements java.io.Serializable { ... So is reverse engineering in case of MySQL going OK by JPA Tools, or am I doing something wrong? I use the JBoss Tools 3.2 stable.
