adding hbm.xml to existing project

Question

I have project that contains hibernate.cfg.xml file and 3 hbm.xml files of 3 different tabels located in MySql each hbm.xml file has a matching .java class. I got all of it as is.

Now I need to create another table and I want to generate its hbm.xml and .java files.

I added to eclipse Hibernate Tools (JBoss) but I can't understand how I do that.

I don't want to create another hibernate.cfg.xml, I want to update it to contain the new table as well.

Answer 1

You don't have to another hibernate.cfg.xml config file (esp if you are just adding another table). Create a new .hbm file, map it to the corresponding model class and add this config to the existing hibernate.cfg.xml .
