Where to put named queries when using Annotations?

Are there any best practices where to put named queries when using annotations?

I'm a little bit lost here: As I don't have any <class>.hbm.xml anymore, I thought about creating a separate queries.hbm.xml and add it to the configuration.

But neither the hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd, nor the hibernate-configuration-2.0.dtd contain the query element - so where shall I put my named queries?!

cheers

what about putting it in a NamedQueries.hbm.xml ?

Sorry, I got a little bit confused, I looked into the wrong dtd: The queries are specified in hibernate-mapping-3.0.dtd, not in hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd.

yes, I just made up a NamedQueries.hbm.xml with my queries and added it to the configuration. Works fine.

thx

I'm not sure putting named queries in annotation is a good practive. It will be possible however.
