Could not determine type for: String

初学hibernate，遇到这样一个问题。搞了半天都不知道问题出在哪儿，结果发现是配置文件中的类型写法出了问题。 

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError 
at hib.HibernateUtil.<clinit>(HibernateUtil.java:21) 
at hib.dynamicmodel.DynamicDemo.main(DynamicDemo.java:24) 
Caused by: org.hibernate.MappingException: Could not determine type for: String, for columns: [org.hibernate.mapping.Column(name)]

<property name = "name" column="name" type = "string"/>

开始我写的是 type = "String",正确的因该是上面的，type = "string" 
type指的是hibernate中的类型，不是java中的String类型，必须小写。
