To reverse engineer the hibernate mappings and objects from the schema some additional setup is required.
Install Hibernate Tools Eclipse plugin
- The update URL is http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/stable/
- The installation procedure is the same as that described for the SVN plugin at FFL2:FFL2 Main/Dev_Environment/Install_Subclipse_Eclipse_plugin except that only the 'Hibernate Tools' component under 'JBoss Tools' is required. Don't install the full 'JBoss Tools' suite.
Create a Hibernate configuration in Eclipse
Open the Hibernate perspective then right-click and choose 'Add Configuration...' in the Hibernate Configurations view as shown below
When creating the database connection under 'Main' using the 'New...' button, the JAR file for the driver to use needs to be specified by clicking the triangle next to the 'Drivers' drop-down
Finally, click 'Test Connection' to check it is ok.
