Last week I attempted to reverse engineer a 6.2 Teiid VDB with Hibernate in JBoss Tools.
In the latest release Hibernate tools added Teiid as an option in the Hibernate Tools UI.
However, the Teiid dialect is not included in any release of Hibernate, so the Tooling
doesn't work. I'm still looking for a better way, but as of now the only way I
have found to get the dialect discovered in Tools is to put it in the global classpath.
I'm of the opinion that the Teiid dialect should be 'built into' Hibernate by
default in order to ease the path for our existing users to use other JBoss technologies,
as well as easing adoption of Teiid by existing Hibernate users. Does anyone have an
opinion pro or con about trying to get the Teiid dialect into Hibernate?
