Hibernate Reverse Engineering Tool

Thanks for all the tips for setting my proxy/port for Java apps. Now I just have to try to figure out what the proxy server/port is. I tried to get it yesterday, but everyone only seemed to know the automatic configuration URL. I'm hoping that's a text file with some information in it that I can use.

Jon Lipsky also hooked me up (via e-mail) with the Reverse Engineering Tool for Hibernate. If I get a chance to use it today - I'll report on it's ease of use, etc. I wonder if I can generate my classes, mark them up with XDoclet and then produce my Struts ActionForms. Or possibly, I can generate the classes with Hibernate and create my ValidatorForms by hand. It'd be cool if the Reverse Engineering Tool supported generating an XDoclet-ready class, and also allowed for regeneration. I probably shouldn't be hoping for too much - it might just work as is.

I recommend you have a look at Middlegen, and have it improved to tag the generated code with Hibernate XDoclet tags. It currently does EJB markup, but it would be easy to adapt it to generate the proper Hibernate code/tags.

Sure it "sounds" easy enough, but I don't know if it's worth the time. Actually, I know it's worth the time, but I have a deadline of January 15th, and spending a week to do some source contribution to Middlegen might not be the best use - considering I could probably just use regular JDBC with imbedded SQL in that amount of time ;) Nevertheless, I will look into it - thanks for the tip.

It would be worth a look at Middlegen - I don't follow their code commits... it may very well do Hibernate tags already.
