What's the easiest way to amend the file name of pojos during hbm2java generation

Question

I'm using hbm2java via maven to generate pojos, it will produce files such as Table.java, but what I want is AbstractTable.java

Is there an easy way to do this?

From my pom.xml:

Answer 1

custom templates do seem to be the way to go to achieve this. In the end I extracted the pojo template files out of the jar so I could modify them and then used hbmtemplate on the pojo templates and filepattern to do this. It's a bit annoying that you can't just use the filepattern with hbm2pojo.

Here's my pom if anyone's interested:
