#607 Feature request: Show JPA-mapped classes and properties while navigating, use JPA mapping for navigation

[Boris Melamed]

Here is a fuller description of what I have in mind:

Questions

1. Is this already part of your product? (If so, I could not find it in the documentation.)
2. If not -- is it on your roadmap?
3. If not -- can you suggest and point me to a plugin approach if I wanted to extend your SW by the above capabilities?

Closest to this request is SQuirreL's Hibernate (1) Plugin which comes as an optional Plugin with SQuirreL's installer. If you open a Session with the Plugin is installed the Session Panel contains a Hibernate tab right next to the SQL tab. On the upper right of the tab is a button to open the Hibernate configuration dialog. The dialog has a text field labeled "Information".

With a completed Hibernate configuration you will be able to connect to the configuration by the connect button right next the configuration button. When successfully connected you will be able to navigate through Entity classes and to issue JQL/HQL queries.

(1) It's probably save to say that Hibernate is the prime JPA implementation.
