Hi there,

I wonder if anyone's interested in the development of an Eclipse plugin for
Hibernate. A couple of weeks ago I sketched the base of such a plugin, which
is able to generate the skeleton of a mapping file for the class opened in
the active editor window. I've discussed quickly with Gavin at that time,
and he basically doubled its functionality, so it detects now relations
too.. I promised I'll develop the code further, but now I clearly turned
out, that I don't have the time for doing further development on that plugin
:( It's particularly useful even in its current state, but sure it could
sport many more features. (We do have ONE known bug too, which needs to be
fixed :)

I do that announcement (or whatever you call it) cos I already passed the
code for a couple of people, who requested it on irc, and they did find it
quite useful.. but it cannot be released without a maintainer, who really
cares about it, and who has some free time which can be donated to this
development - and unfortunately I cannot afford this atm :(

So, if anyone is interested in developing that plugin, I'd love to give the
code over to a new maintainer.. 

It'd also be discussed, whether we should stay on Eclipse's reflection
classes on class' property detection, or rather should drop that, and move
to the track used by the current command line tools..


An old screenshot of the plugin in action can be seen at (check the right
side of the shot):
