How to turn off hbm2ddl?

hbm2ddl, hibernate, java, orm

Solution

Just omitting `hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto` defaults to Hibernate not doing anything. From the reference documentation:

1.1.4. Hibernate configuration

The `hbm2ddl.auto` option turns on automatic generation of database schemas directly into the database. This can also be turned off by removing the configuration option, or redirected to a file with the help of the SchemaExport Ant task.

Setting `hbm2ddl.auto` to `none` (undocumented) might generate a warning, such as: `org.hibernate.cfg.SettingsFactory - Unrecognized value for "hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto": none`
