How to use hbm2java and cfg2hbm in HIBERNATE

[sheed]

Hi,

I am new to hibernate and need some information. I looked at several examples online and tried them too.
One thing I can't figure out is how to use cfg2hbm and hbm2java, didn't find any docs., can someone point me to some tutorial that explains how to use these.
I see following text on most of the *.hbm.xml files

<!-- 
Auto-generated mapping file from 
the bibernate.org cfg2hbm engine 
-->

and on persistent classes (means I should have hbm.xml files available before I use hbm2java)

/** 
 * generated by hbm2java 
 */

Can some please tell me how to use cfg2hbm and hbm2java a small example will really help. I tried posting on Hibernate forum but no answer. So posting here as most of you
probably have used Hibernate. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Are they part of hibernate distribution? As I know they are not.
