See here http://onjava.com/pub/a/onjava/2005/12/14/hibernate-class-generation-with-hbm2java.html

See here for the download link for Hibernate Tools

Answer 2

The Hibernate Tools include an Ant Task allowing to generate Java code from mapping files (amongst other things). Check the section 4.4.2. POJO java code exporter (<hbm2java>) in the documentation.

The Hibernate3 Maven Plugin also supports this (with the hibernate3:hbm2java goal).
