Please use http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/annotations/3.5/reference/en/html_single/ link for reference. But if you will tell what specific you are looking for I might be able to help you better. Here is little detail about @GeneratedValue annotation… I love this blog post on same topic http://elegando.jcg3.org/2009/08/hibernate-generatedvalue/. He has done good job explaining.
