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