    Enter a description if you want and then save the file

    Now right click on your project and click properties
    Select Hibernate Synchronizer and click on Template and then new
    Select the template from the list and paste ${class.ValueObjectClassName}.as as the Output name
    Browse to the place you want the files created
    Check the overwrite box and click save

    Now when you synchronize your hbm.xml files you will get both java file and AS3 as file generation.


    Cairngorm 2.0

    February 1st, 2006

    The news just got even better.  Along with the release of Flex 2 public beta today we are just got word that the Cairngorm 2 alpha is available for download at http://www.richinternetapps.com/archives/000143.html

    Personally, I have just downloaded the new alpha and will get started with it right away.  The migration path should be very simple and the new version will take advantage of AS3 and the new framework.

    Go get it and post your comments here.
