I am using the middlegen-hibernate plugin.(Middlegen-Hibernate-r4)
Here is a summary of the issue that I am facing.I am trying to use middlegen to read the database schema to autogenerate the hibernate mapping files for me. I am then using hbm2java to convert the mapping files into POJOs.
The schema that I am reading has many tables in it and I have specified the specific tables that I am interested in by using the <table> element tag in the
ant specific build.xml file. The appropriate hbm.xml files are generated,however there is an issue with them.
Some of the columns in the tables that I have specified in the xml file are foreign keys in other tables.Middlegen seems to be generating a seperate <meta / property > tag for each of the tables that it references. So if column X in table A is a foreign key in 3 tables. I have the property for column x thrice in my A.hbm.xml file in class A and hence also correspondingly in my POJO I have the attribute declared thrice.
Is there a setting in the middlegen task that I need to turn on. I tried swithching the genIntegratedComposite key in the hibernate task either ways but that doesnt seem to help.
Please advise /provide solution for the same.
