SQL script execution on deployment?

[samdoyle]

Did I miss it or something in your examples? How are you getting your *.sql scripts executed on deployment?

Thanks

The import.sql file on the classpath is automatically executed when you have

<property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" value="create-drop"/>

in persistence.xml

So I take it this will not work if I'm using TopLink for the persistence provider?

Right. This is a hibernate property.

I don't see anyway to do something similiar with TopLink. I've always used TopLink since it is the default provider with GlassFish. Is it trivial to use Hibernate in place of TopLink in GlassFish? This is certainly a useful feature.

Yes, it is trivial to use Hibernate as the persistence provider in Glassfish. You only need to add one line in persistence.xml and put the Hibernate jars on classpath.

Thanks, I'll try it out.
