hibernate4-maven-plugin 1.0.5 released!

Today we released the version 1.0.5 of hibernate4-maven-plugin to Central!

This release mainly fixes a NullPointerException-bug, that was introduced in 1.0.4. The NPE was triggered, if a hibernate.properties-file is present and the dialect is specified in that file and not in the plugin configuration. Thanks to Paulo Pires and and everflux, for pointing me at that bug.

But there are also some minor improvements to talk about:

Package level annotations are now supported (Thanks to Joachim Van der Auwera for that)
Hibernate Core was upgraded to 4.3.7.Final
Hibernate Envers was upgraded to 4.3.7.Final
Hibernate Validator was upgrades to 5.1.3.Final

The upgrade of Hibernate Validator is a big step, because 5.x supports Bean Validation 1.1 (JSR 349). See the FAQ of hibernate-validator for more details on this.

Because Hibernate Validator 5 requires the Unified Expression Language (EL) in version 2.2 or later, a dependency to javax.el-api:3.0.0 was added. That does the trick for the integration-tests included in the source code of the plugin. But, because I am not using Hibernate Validator in any of my own projects, at the moment, the upgrade may rise some backward compatibility errors, that I am not aware of. If you stumble across any problems, please let me know!

Hi,
I’m using as dialect a class which is specified in project where we are using your plugin. Since version 1.4 I’m getting

Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: myDialect.MySQLServerDialect
at de.juplo.plugins.hibernate4.ValidationConfiguration.(ValidationConfiguration.java:36)
at de.juplo.plugins.hibernate4.Hbm2DdlMojo.execute(Hbm2DdlMojo.java:679)

With version 1.3 everything works fine.

Could you guys check it please?

  If you can provide me with some example-code, that generates the error, I would look into it.

  Hi yuxh,
  
  this does not look like a bug in the plugin.
  
  It looks like there is some invalid data in the table, that stops the drop.
  
  I would drop the table manually and give it a retry…

first things first … thanks for the great plugin!!!

my colleague and myself have come across some minor issues:

We do have the following snippets

@ElementCollection @CollectionTable(name = "T2", joinColumns = @JoinColumn(name = "T1_ID", foreignKey = @ForeignKey(name = "FK_T2_TO_T1")))

It seems, that the ForeignKey annotation embedded in the CollectionTable has no effect.

@Table(name = "T1", uniqueConstraints=@UniqueConstraint(name="U_REFERENZ", columnNames="REFERENCE"))

It also seems, that the uniqueConstraint annotation embedded in the table has no effect.

Are me missing some configuration part, is it by intention or have me spotted a minor glitch?
Thanks for a short reply.

Again … thanks for the great plugin
cheers
Klaus

  At the first glance, that does not look like a bug in the plugin.
  
  Under the hood, the plugin is using the official SchemaExport-Tool from Hibernate (see: the offical Toolset-Guide).
  
  Try running the export manualy with that tool.
  If the error persists, it is a hibernate-bug and you should ask that guys.
  If not, please contact me again!
