Question

I am new to Hibernate. I have finished this tutorial and I tried to ‘generate’ my first
hibernate application.

I created four tables on JDBC, account, course, level, subject.
course have the references key to account, level and subject. Then I tried to generate the revenge.xml by NetBean. In the wizard, the tables are related, but the xml generated does not include any association mapping.

hibernate.revenge.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-reverse-engineering PUBLIC "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Reverse Engineering DTD 3.0//EN" "http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-reverse-engineering-3.0.dtd">
<hibernate-reverse-engineering>
  <schema-selection match-schema="APP"/>
  <table-filter match-name="ACCOUNT"/>
  <table-filter match-name="LEVEL"/>
  <table-filter match-name="COURSE"/>
  <table-filter match-name="SUBJECT"/>
</hibernate-reverse-engineering>

Answer 1

You don’t have associations in the hibernate.reveng.xml file.

Your associations are defined in the mapped classes, if you’re using hibernate annotations, or in the hbm file of every class if your using the classic XML mapping.
