customizing hibernate properties in hyperjaxb

Question

The default configuration of hyperjaxb is creating hibernate annotations that result in hibernate annotations that produce incredibly verbose SQL

Answer 1

You can customize default mappings as you want:

http://confluence.highsource.org/display/HJ3/Customizing+default+mappings

Here are the default customizations.

And here's a test project which customizes defaults.

For instance, customizing the default cascade for many-to-one would look like (untested):

<jaxb:bindings schemaLocation="schema.xsd" node="/xs:schema">
    <hj:persistence>
        <hj:default-many-to-one>
            <!-- So what do you think to be a reasonable default mapping? -->
            <orm:cascade>
                <orm:cascade-persist/>
            </orm:cascade>
        </hj:default-many-to-one>
    </hj:persistence>
</jaxb:bindings>

Please check the documentation. You can (but don't have to) customize a lot.
