I'm trying to make work the example from hibernate reference.

I've got simple table Pupil with id, name and age fields. I've created correct (as I think) java-class for it according to all java-beans rules.

I've created configuration file - hibernate.cfg.xml, just like in the example from reference.

I've created hibernate mapping for one class Pupil, and here is the error occured.

<hibernate-mapping>
   <class name="Pupil" table="pupils">
       ...
   </class>
</hibernate-mapping>

table="pupils" is red in my IDE and I see message "cannot resolve table pupils". I've also founded very strange note in reference which says that most users fail with the same problem trying to run the example.

Ah.. I'm very angry with this example.. IMHO if authors know that there is such problem they should add some information about it.

But, how should I fix it? I don't want to deal with Ant here and with other instruments used in example. I'm using MySql 5.0, but I think it doesn't matter.

UPD: source code

Pupil.java - my persistent class

package domain;

public class Pupil {
    private Integer id;
    private String name;
    private Integer age;

    protected Pupil () { }

    public Pupil (String name, int age) {
        this.age = age;
        this.name = name;
    }

    public Integer getId () {
        return id;
    }

    public void setId (Integer id) {
        this.id = id;
    }

    public String getName () {
        return name;
    }

    public void setName (String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

    public Integer getAge () {
        return age;
    }

    public void setAge (Integer age) {
        this.age = age;
    }

    public String toString () {
        return "Pupil [ name = " + name + ", age = " + age + " ]";
    }
}

Pupil.hbm.xml is mapping for this class
