+Enabling Debug-Output
+
+ If you are new to <<<hibernate4-maven-plugin>>>, in many cases, the
+ {Configuration-Method-Precedence} may be the source of configuration
+ errors.
+ To solve this problem, you should run maven with the debugging output
+ enabled.
+ For example, by executing:
+
+-------------
+mvn -X compile hibernate4:export
+-------------
+
+ (The <<<compile>>> might be necessary, because <<<hibernate4-maven-plugin>>>
+ has to scan the compiled classes for annotations!)
+
+ Unlike the majority of the maven-plugins, <<<hibernate4-maven-plugin>>> was
+ designed to give a good many hints, when debugging is enabled.
+ Because, if you do not know, what went wrong, you can't fix it!
+
+ <<But be warned:>> <<<hibernate4-maven-plugin>>> tends to be very chatty ;)
