54 <h1>Hibernate 4 Maven Plugin</h1>
57 <h2>A simple Plugin for generating a Database-Schema from Hibernate 4 Mapping-Annotations<a name="A_simple_Plugin_for_generating_a_Database-Schema_from_Hibernate_4_Mapping-Annotations"></a></h2>
60 The <b>hibernate4-maven-plugin</b> is a plugin for generating a database-schema
61 from your Hibernate-4-Mappings and create or update your database
63 Its main usage is to automatically create and populate a test-database
64 for unit-tests in cooperation with the
65 <a class="externalLink" href="http://mojo.codehaus.org/dbunit-maven-plugin">dbunit-maven-plugin</a>.
69 The plugin was designed with three main goals in mind:
74 <li>It should be easy to use.</li>
76 <li>It should be maximal unlikely, to erase a producation-database by accident.</li>
78 <li>It should not slow down the development cycle.</li>
82 To achieve the first goal, the convention-over-configuration paradigma
83 was applied and the plugin was stuffed with usefull logging-messages.
84 So, if in doubt, just turn on the <a href="./debugging.html">debugging output</a> with the <tt>mvn -X ...</tt>.
88 To achieve the second goal, the precedence in which the configuration
89 locations are consulted was layouted in a way that makes it possible, to
90 prevent overwrites of the wrong database by accident.
94 Last but not least, in order to not slow down the development cycle, the
95 hibernate4-maven-plugin only executes the schema-export, if the mapping
96 or the dialect changes (or if you force it to do so).
100 For more information about the inspiration to write this tiny plugin,

110 See <a href="./configuration.html">Configuration Examples</a> for Usage-Explanations
111 and simple examples of how to use this plugin.
115 See <a href="./export-mojo.html">hibernate4:export</a> and

117 autogenerated documentation. These are mostly configuration-options
118 of the Hibernate-Tools <tt>SchemaExport</tt> and <tt>SchemaUpdate</tt>, that do
119 the work in the background.
