Adding Hibernate Support

PowerDesigner uses a Hibernate Extended Model Definition (or profile) to generate Hibernate files.

1. Verify that the current model has the target language Java or Java 5.0
2. Select Model > Extended Model Definitions .
3. In the List of Extended Model Definitions, click on the Import tool.
4. Select Hibernate in the O/R Mapping tab and click OK.

• Defining the Hibernate Default Options
  You can define these options in the model or a package property sheet.
• Defining the Hibernate Database Configuration Parameters
  Hibernate can support multiple databases. You need to define database configuration parameters. The database configuration parameters are stored in the configuration file, hibernate.cfg.xml .
