When you reverse engineer the Hibernate HBM files from the database (in the MyEclipse database perspective), how do you control what Generator class is used (increment vs. identity, for example)?

I had a case where I had three HBM files where the generator class was identity and they weren’t adding records to the database until I changed the generator class to increment.

That seems obvious … now…. four hours later.

Is there a way to specify what generator class is used? I didn’t see it.

Even if I look at the Hiberate mapping files in the cool MyEclipse viewer, there doesn’t seem to be a way to modify the generator class except to do it manually.

This should be an option right in the Reverse Engineer dialog. Maybe it is and I just don’t see it?

Please let me know.

Thanks,

Mork,

You can choose the Generator class in the Reverser Engineering wizard itself. Here is the screenshot for your reference.

If there is no selected value for the Id Generator, it takes “assigned” as default.

Let us know if you have any further questions.

Can’t believe I missed that.

Thank you very much.
