Middlegen will generate mapping files for your schema. hbm2java will create POJO's from the mapping files.

Thanks for your post, is middlegen a part of Hibernate extensions? if not then does hibernate provides any other tool to generate this mapping

Regards

Middlegen isn't part of Hibernate at all, its a seperate product. Hibernate extensions does have something called ddl2hbm which I think does the same. Hibernate's own documentation however recommends Middlegen.

The latest version of FireStorm/DAO generates Hibernate code by reverse engineering the database schema.
