Help Setting Hibernate NamingStrategy

[llowrey]

I need help setting hibernate.ejb.naming_strategy to DefaultComponentSafeNamingStrategy.

From what I've read, this goes in META-INF/persistance.xml, but I don't have one. I am using a Seam managed hibernate session.

I tried putting the following in my hibernate.cfg.xml but it didn't seem to make a difference.

<property name="ejb.naming_strategy">org.hibernate.cfg.DefaultComponentSafeNamingStrategy</property>

I'm running tomcat 5.5/6, Seam 2.2.0 GA, and Hibernate 3.3.2 GA.

My goal is to be able to use multiple instances of an @Embeddable in an @Entity. Right now, the column names are colliding so I have to specify them explicitly. My understating is that DefaultComponentSafeNamingStrategy would make that unnecessary.

Tips / suggestions?

Found the answer myself... the extremely hard way!

In components.xml

     <persistence:hibernate-session-factory
          name="hibernateSessionFactory">
          <persistence:naming-strategy>
               #{namingStrategy}
          </persistence:naming-strategy>
     </persistence:hibernate-session-factory>

     <component name="namingStrategy" class="org.hibernate.cfg.DefaultComponentSafeNamingStrategy"/>

It sure would be nice to add this to the documentation!
