Hibernate tool to use synonym in database

Does hibernate tool have the ability to connect to synonym tables in the database? I was asked about this by my the DBA this question.

Solution

  • yes, just enable the property 'hibernate.synonyms' in your persistence.xml

        <properties>
        <property name="hibernate.synonyms" value="true"/>

    </properties>

    And annotate your entity class with

        @Entity
    @Table(name = "<repalce with synonym name>")
