How to map oracle timestamp to appropriate java type in hibernate?
- by jschoen
I am new to hibernate and I am stumped. In my database I have tables that have a columns of TIMESTAMP(6). I am using Netbeans 6.5.1 and when I generate the hibernate.reveng.xml, hbm.xml files, and pojo files it sets the columns to be of type Serializable. This is not what I expected, nor what I want them to be.
I found this post on the hibernate forums saying to place:
in the hibernate.reveng.xml file.
In Netbeans you are not able to generate the mappings from this file (it creates a new one every time) and it does not seem to have the ability to re-generate them from the file either (at least according to this it is slated to be available in version 7).
So I am trying to figure out what to do. I am more inclined to believe I am doing something wrong since I am new to this, and it seems like it would be a common problem for others.
So what am I doing wrong?
If I am not doing anything wrong, how do I work around this?
I am using Netbeans 6.5, Oracle 10G, and I believe Hibernate 3 (it came with my netbeans).
Edit: Meant to say I found this stackoverflow question, but it is really a different problem.
