Max Rydahl Andersen commented on HBX-1042:
------------------------------------------

workaround:

if you set the dialect we don't need to contact the db to detect the database or you can set the connection properties to not be dataSource bound by setting the relevant connection properties on the configuration (for all the configurations supported by hibernate tools we can set a properties file to override these....as far as I remember that is also possible in spring)

> DocHelper calls cfg.buildSettings(). to get the Dialect, default catalog name and default schema name.
> However, cfg.buildSettings() may fail with a HibernateException (example below). 
> It would be nice to have DocHelper handle this more gracefully. Attached is a simple patch that does this.
> (background: I'd like to use the Configuration I'm getting from a Spring LocalSessionFactoryBean, which after initial creation leaves its LocalDataSourceConnectionProvider in a state that yiels a HibernateException when calling 'configure()' on it, which buildSettings() does. Because of this issue, I cannot use the DocExporter for my Spring-based hibernate configurations)
