[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HBX-1000) Problem with PostgreSQL using uppercase letters in tables

[Manfred Moser (JIRA)]

    [ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HBX-1000?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=32216#action_32216 ] 

Manfred Moser commented on HBX-1000:
------------------------------------

I am pretty sure this has to do with a problem I am encountering at the moment (unrelated to hibernate but should help anyway). In order to access uppercase table or view names via sql in postgres you have to have the schema name added when using it. So if you use the public schema you have to use something like

SELECT * FROM "PUBLIC"."MYTABLE" 

Maybe the hibernate dialect does not know about that "feature".

>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: reverse-engineer
>    Affects Versions: 3.2.beta11
>         Environment: Hibernate 3.2.5.ga, Hibernate Tools 3.2.0 beta9a, PostgreSql 8.2, postgresql-8.2-506.jdbc3.jar, Eclipse 3.3.0, all running on Windows XP at the moment (including PostgreSql)

> I have problems using Hibernate tools when using upper case letters in a PostgreSQL database.
> I can configure Hibernate Tools for my local PostgreSql installation without any problems. I can access the table structure in the view Hibernate Configurations and do reverse engineering by creating XML mappings and beans. No problem.
> But when I'm using upper case characters in table names Hibernate Tools can't access the table structures any more. Hibernate Configuration shows the tables, but when I want to see the columns, it doesn't show anything. Reverse engineering also doesn't work any more.
> So, the following works:
> TABLE cms_clusterMessage
> pk_clustermessageid
> fk_clusternodeid
> messagetype
> messagedetail
> The following doesn't work:
> TABLE cms_clusterMessage
> PK_ClusterMessageId
> FK_ClusterNodeId
> MessageType
> MessageDetail
> I tried to use different JDBC drivers because I thought it could be a bug of the driver. But it wasn't.
