DB Object builder is a simple tool which can generate a lot of Java source file for you. Each Java source file map to a table in your database. It is like Hibernate, but it is smaller than it and do not use any complex XML configuration files.

The original use for this was to take data out of a set of Hibernate DAO objects and create a variety of XML DOM objects from them. In the project that instigated this work the mapping between the DAOs and the XML DOM was not one for one and encoding the conversion into the DOAs was not a good idea. While at first sight this may seem similar to dozer (http://dozer.sourceforge.net) the primary difference is that this is code generation and does not have the overhead of using introspection at run time.
