[hibernate-dev] Problem setting the package name using Hibernate Tools.

Wed Jun 4 02:04:43 EDT 2008

Max, 

Thanks for your reply. Comments inline.

&gt; Secondly, even though I have defined the
&gt;HibernateReverseEngineeringStrategy, why tools is generating pojos and mapping
&gt;files for all the tables in the db ? (Note:I have listed only selected tables
&gt;in the hibernate.reveng.xml).

&gt;Not sure - depends what your customer reverse engineeringst rategy does.

I am using the default reverse engineering strategy. Here is the code:

&nbsp;cfg = new JDBCMetaDataConfiguration();
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; OverrideRepository or = new OverrideRepository();
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Configuration c = cfg.configure(confFile); // hibernate.cfg.xml
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; or.addFile(revengFile); // hibernate.reveng.xml
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; DefaultReverseEngineeringStrategy strategy = new&nbsp; 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; DefaultReverseEngineeringStrategy();
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; settings = new ReverseEngineeringSettings(strategy);
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; settings.setDefaultPackageName(helper.getPackageName()); // sets package name
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; strategy.setSettings(settings);
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; cfg.setReverseEngineeringStrategy(strategy);
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; cfg.readFromJDBC();

And the hibernate.reveng.xml is 

&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&gt;
&lt;!DOCTYPE hibernate-reverse-engineering PUBLIC "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Reverse Engineering DTD 3.0//EN" "http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-reverse-engineering-3.0.dtd"&gt;
&lt;hibernate-reverse-engineering&gt;
&nbsp; &lt;table-filter exclude="false" match-catalog=".*" match-name="HOTEL" match-schema="TRAVEL"/&gt;
&nbsp; &lt;table-filter exclude="false" match-catalog=".*" match-name="PERSON" match-schema="TRAVEL"/&gt;
&nbsp; &lt;table-filter exclude="false" match-catalog=".*" match-name="TRIP" match-schema="TRAVEL"/&gt;
&nbsp; &lt;table-filter exclude="false" match-catalog=".*" match-name="TRIPTYPE" match-schema="TRAVEL"/&gt;
&lt;/hibernate-reverse-engineering&gt;

Only 4 tables are selected as part of the hibernate.reveng.xml. But pojos and mappings are generated for all the tables in the TRAVEL db. Also the selected 4 tables are not dependent on the other tables in the schema.

Is it possible pojo generator/mapping generator is reading all the tables in the schema and ignoring the "selected" tables defined in reveng.xml. And hence creating the additional java and mapping files. 

I would appreciate if you can tell me what I am missing.

Thanks - G
