Re: OSUser and Hibernate: couple of questions

Sorry, but I really don't understand anything from your code, can you
give me a more concrete and simple example?

First of all: do I need to change hibernate mapping files if I want to
add new properties?
Second: when I retrieve a user through the UserManager will it
automatically retreive this custom properties as well?
Third: how do I set these properties in a simple manner, ie:
user.setSex("M"), user.setLocation("Netherlands") etc... and the opposite
for retreiving

How do I let osuser know which properties are required on top of the
default ones?

Sorry for asking, but osuser really lacks any documentation for this,

Ilja

ps: are osaccess and osuser being worked on or is this project standing
still?
