    seam-gen and hibernate

    metaphysicist
      Hi

      I am using Dan Allens book (Seam in Action) and have been following the
      instructions to get seam-gen going. I have hit an error in 'seam
      generate' related to Hibernate and I am unsure of how to troubleshoot
      it. If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate it. Find below the output:

          seam-gen uses hbm2java (one of the Hibernate Tools) under the covers for the revengr procedure.


          You need to make sure that in the 'seam setup' task you specify the correct location of the correct driver and the JDBC driver class that Hibernate should use.


          In %SEAM_HOME%\seam-gen\build.properties files, these are the relevant entries that are saved during the 'seam setup' task:


          hibernate.connection.driver_class=com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
          driver.jar=../lib/sqljdbc.jar



          double-check that these exist and are correct for your particular db.

            Thanks for your reply. The entries I had in the build.properties file were in fact correct  but what was causing the problem was a path specified with backslashes instead of forward slashes (I am on Windows). Thanks!
