[FIXED] Eclipse Hibernate.cfg.xml is linking "sys" database from MySQL

Issue

When I use Hibernate to connect to a MySQL database, bookstoredb, in Eclipse, a connection to the MySQL sys database also shows up!

I'm using the following:

• Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS (desktop)
• Eclipse 2020-6 (4.16.0) w/JBoss Tools, Hibernate-Tools plugin.
• MySQL Ver 8.0.21 for Linux on x86_64 (MySQL Community Server - GPL)

Note: this is a local desktop project, I am working through a tutorial. I will NOT be using root/admin with MySQL down the road.

Following is the complete hibernate.cfg.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC
    "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD 3.0//EN"
    "http://www.hibernate.org/dtd/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd">
<hibernate-configuration>
    <session-factory>
        <property name="hibernate.connection.driver_class">com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</property>
        <property name="hibernate.connection.password">admin</property>
        <property name="hibernate.connection.url">jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/bookstoredb?serverTimezone=UTC</property>
        <property name="hibernate.connection.username">root</property>
        <property name="hibernate.dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect</property>
    </session-factory>
</hibernate-configuration>

Am I misunderstanding, shouldn't the connection.url, as given, ONLY connect to bookstoredb? Why is "sys" connecting also?

This becomes even more of a problem when using the tool to reverse-engineer the database tables into java classes. I'm getting not only the bookstoredb tables as java classes but every table in the sys database as well. And there are a lot of them, as I am sure folks well know.

How do I unlink the sys database? Or set things up so I don't link to it in the first place?

Solution

I guess sys is the default schema in your MySQL workbench.

Go to your Mysql workbench and drop the schema/because it is importing all the schemas from your local server.

or

Custom :- Open your workspace(eclipse("run" tab on top of screen->hibernate code genration) -> Go to hibernate code generation( -> click main-> revenge.xml->select new -> select folder-> configure table filter-> (1)select database you want to select-> import all table-> apply -> Run .

Now you can see all the tables in the location you have selected. If you want to customer export you could also do so after (1) step above
