I hope this is an acceptable place to post this question versus another forum.

My Goal: Generate hibernate mapping xml files from my Annotated Entity beans so I can use them in a non web application.

Here is what I've tried. I think I just need to be steered on the right track.

 <hibernatetool destdir="/opt/jboss-seam-1.0.1.GA/examples/dvdstore/build/generated" >
 <ejb3configuration />
 <classpath>
 <!-- it is in this classpath you put your classes dir,
 and/or ejb3 persistence compliant jar -->
 <path location="/opt/jboss-seam-1.0.1.GA/examples/dvdstore/build/classes" />
 </classpath>
 <!-- list exporters here -->
 <hbm2cfgxml ejb3="true" />
 <hbm2hbmxml destdir="/opt/jboss-seam-1.0.1.GA/examples/dvdstore/build/generated" />
 </hibernatetool>
 </target>

Whether I include the <hbm2hbmxml.... /> or not the mappings aren't generated in the hibernate.cfg.xml.

Ant output:

generatehbm:

generated hibernate.cfg.xml file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC
"-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD 3.0//EN"
"http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd">
<hibernate-configuration>
 <session-factory>
 <property name="hibernate.bytecode.use_reflection_optimizer">false</property>
 </session-factory>
</hibernate-configuration>

But there are no actual mappings generated?

Guidance would be greatly appreciated.
