problems with db-objects named "abc$ta_tab"
-------------------------------------------

         Key: HBX-751
         URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HBX-751
     Project: Hibernate Tools
        Type: Bug

  Components: middlegenplugin, hbm2java  
    Versions: 3.2beta7    
 Environment: SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 9
Hibernate 3.1.3
Hibernate Tools 3.2 beta 7
Oracle 9.2.0.6
    Reporter: Ronny Riedel


Problem
-------

I have e.g. 2 tables in my oracle-db: "PDC$TA_ITEM" and "PDC$TA_STATUS", with a foreign key references from "PDC$TA_ITEM" to "PDC$TA_STATUS". In my build.xml-File, I specified

<jdbcconfiguration packagename="com.foo.bar" />

The with hbm2hbmxml generated hbm.xml-Files named "pdc$taItem.hbm.xml" and "pdc$taStatus.hbm.xml". Because of the reference, the file "pdc$taItem.hbm.xml" contains amongst others following code:

<many-to-one name="taStatus" class="com.foo.bar.pdc.taStatus">
   <column name="STATUS_ID" />
</many-to-one>

Because i have a little bit notion of hbm.xml-files, i recognized, that com.foo.bar.pdc.taStatus are wrong. So I changed it to com.foo.bar.pdc$taStatus by hand, the spelling I know from middlegen for hibernate and run hbm2java. The ant-task generated all java-classes without errors. But when i opened the java-files with eclipse, I noticed that hbm2java genereted the following code in "taItem":

import com.foo.bar.pdc.taStatus;


When I change these to "import com.foo.bar.taStatus;, everything was fine in eclipse. But til now I had no opportunity presented itself for real-testing the generated javacode.



Summary
-------
In my mind as long as the names of the db-tables are valid JavaNames, they shouldn't be changed. If the names aren't valid JavaNames, throw an error while reverse engineering like "object name xyz is not a valid javaname. you have to specify a valid javaname in the hibernate.reveng.xml-file for these object."
