Startup script to create a schema in HSQLDB

Question

I am attempting to use an in-memory database to mock out a teradata database. I need to create a schema before the tables are built, however, it is giving me fits.

If you run your script this way...

...then it is executed before Hibernate does its initialization stuff.

I have tested it again, especially for you. It is run before Hibernate creates the tables. See this log (running the script is in the first 3 lines, Hibernate in the last ones):
