JDBC 4.0 and Oracle JDeveloper for J2EE Development
In this section, Java classes are generated from the example Hibernate mapping file (catalog.hbm.xml) and a Oracle database table is generated from the mapping file and the properties file (hibernate.properties). The mapping classes and database table are generated with a Ant build file. The Hibernate API provides the net.sf.hibernate.tool.hbm2java.Hbm2JavaTask task class to generate Java classes from a hbm.xml mapping file and the org.hibernate.tool.hbm2ddl.SchemaExportTask task class to generate a database table from a mapping file. First, create a Ant build file in Jdeveloper 10g IDE. Select File | New. In the New Gallery window select General | Ant. In the Items listed select Empty Buildfile.

In the Create Ant Buildfile specify a File Name, build.xml, and a Directory Name for the build file. A build.xml file is added to the Hibernate project in the Applications-Navigator.

The example build.xml consists of targets for the following:
