My point might have been discussed previously. I beg your pardon if my message bothers you.
As everybody knows, Hibernate will create very terse and mystic table alias. I often feel frustrated by them when trying to read the SQL Hibernate has produced. There must be many thoughts behind its current design, I think. Could we achieve the goal to avoid sacrificing SQL readability while having our job done? Needless to say, experienced Hibernate user still needs to understand the auto-generated SQL for many reasons (troubleshooting, optimization), and a human-friendly SQL might make for a far better user experience. In terms of implementation, we can simulate human's thinking process when designing a table alias (TBH, sometimes even human is frustrated to think of a most satisfying alias). Many heuristics could be applied (e.g., hufman encoding algorithm) and it would be a good selling point for v6. Any thoughts? Again, pardon me if the point has been discussed previously. _______________________________________________ hibernate-dev mailing list -- hibernate-dev@lists.jboss.org To unsubscribe send an email to hibernate-dev-le...@lists.jboss.org %(web_page_url)slistinfo%(cgiext)s/%(_internal_name)s
