Before I saw Gavin's beautifull drawing I also viewed both approaches as legitimate. But I wanted BOTH possibilities, because of two things: 1. I like the codegenerator and the hbm.xml -> java approach 2. I like XDoclet and saw the ability to provide an [EMAIL PROTECTED] approach for the beginner and intermediate user would be GREAT :) But with the beautifuly drawing I saw symmetry (which is good :) The only real "issue" is that if you are doing Middlegen->hbm.xml->[EMAIL PROTECTED] with the purpose of using the [EMAIL PROTECTED] version to do [EMAIL PROTECTED]>hbm.xml, then it seems rather "redundant".... but then again, the XDoclet generation in the code generator would ofcourse be optional....hey, i got to think....with my local version of hbm2java (which the codegenerator is called now :) we got the <meta attribute="description"></meta>, which is an ideal place for MiddleGen to place it's "additional" XDoclet tags...if that is in any way advantageous... /max > > > > > The the only leg of the roundtripping that is not > > fully reproduceable without user interaction is the > > DDL -> hbm.xml (ie.
