I'm using MySQL 5.0.8. I'm able to connect to the database using the mysql-connector-java-5.1.6-bin jar and look at the tables. When I try to reverse engineer the tables using the MyEclipse tools, nothing gets generated. I'm really not sure where the problem is. I'm on a tight deadline to generate the hiberate objects and the mapping files, so would really appreciate your help on this.

srinisub,

1) Can you please share your installation details with us from MyEclipse > Installation Summary > Installation Details?

2) Do you see any errors which are of interest logged in the .log file which is located at <workspace dir>/.metadata folder? If yes then paste them here for me.

3) Can you give us steps in detail to replicate it at our end?

Here is a tutorial which explains in detail about Hibernate reverse engineering. Can you go through it step by step and check if the reverse engineering works?

Let us know how it works for you.

I have gone through that tutorial several time at this point, I think you should update that tutorial for version MyEclipse Spring 8.6 .

There are some differences in the screenshots...I re-created the project three times before getting the right combinations...I think it was adding annotatons when I added Hibernate that finally did it.
