Hibernate Mapping two tables in one hbm file with same class name?

Question

I have 2 tables:

CREATE TABLE "LOCATION"   (
    "ID"              NUMBER(19,0) NOT NULL ENABLE,
    "VERSION"         NUMBER(19,0) NOT NULL ENABLE,
    "DELETEULD"         NUMBER(1,0) DEFAULT 0 NOT NULL ENABLE,
    "INBOUND"           NUMBER(1,0) DEFAULT 0 NOT NULL ENABLE,
    "AAENABLED"         NUMBER(1,0) DEFAULT 0 NOT NULL ENABLE,
    "WSUPLDTOOL"        NUMBER(1,0) DEFAULT 0 NOT NULL ENABLE,
    "CISDEST"           VARCHAR2(7 CHAR),
    "REVRECOVERY"       NUMBER(1,0) DEFAULT 0,
    CONSTRAINT "LOCATION_ID" PRIMARY KEY ("ID")  ENABLE  )

CREATE TABLE "TSLD164"."FTP_SCAN_EVENTS"
  (
    "HOSTNAME"    VARCHAR2(200 BYTE),
    "DIRECTORY"   VARCHAR2(200 BYTE),
    "USERNAME"    VARCHAR2(20 BYTE),
    "PASSWORD"    VARCHAR2(20 BYTE),
    "LOCATION_ID" NUMBER(19,0) NOT NULL ENABLE,
    CONSTRAINT "FTP_SCAN_EVENTS_LOCATION_FK1" FOREIGN KEY ("LOCATION_ID") REFERENCES "LOCATION" ("ID") ENABLE
  )

Tables related with FK and PK (Location_Id column and Id)

I have a form with all the above columns as fields. But, the columns from table FTP_SCAN_EVENTS are hidden and by selection of a checkbox (REVRECOVERY) they show up in the form. And user can add rows dynamically If he wants.

<td><form:checkbox path="revRecovery" onclick="showMe('div1',this), showMe('i1',this)"/>
            <input type="hidden" value="1" name="_revRecovery"/>
            FTP Scan Events</td></tr><tr><td colspan="4">
                    <table id="div1" style="display:none">
            <tr><td><input type="text" value="hostname" onfocus="if(this.value == 'hostname'){this.value =''}" onblur="if(this.value == ''){this.value ='hostname'}" size="30" maxlength="200"/></td>
            <td><input type="text" value="directory" onfocus="if(this.value == 'directory'){this.value =''}" onblur="if(this.value == ''){this.value ='directory'}" size="30" maxlength="200"/></td>
            <td><input type="text" value="username" onfocus="if(this.value == 'username'){this.value =''}" onblur="if(this.value == ''){this.value ='username'}" size="20" maxlength="20"/></td>
            <td><input type="text" value="password" onfocus="if(this.value == 'password'){this.value =''}" onblur="if(this.value == ''){this.value ='password'}" size="20" maxlength="20"/></td></tr>
                    </table>
            </td></tr>
            <tr id="i1" style="display:none"><td><input type="button" onclick="addRow()" value="+"/>
            <input type="button" onclick="removeRowFromTable();" value="-" />
            </td></tr>

my hbm file for Location:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-mapping PUBLIC "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Mapping DTD//EN" "http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-mapping-3.0.dtd">
<hibernate-mapping package="ca.ups.tundra.model">
    <class name="Location" table="LOCATION">
        <id name="id" access="field" type="long">
            <generator class="native"/>
        </id>
        <version name="version" access="field" column="VERSION" type="long"/>

        <property name="cisDest" type="string" column="CISDEST" length="7" not-null="true"/>
        <property name="revRecovery" type="boolean" not-null="true"/>
        <property name="deleteUld" type="boolean" not-null="true"/>
        <property name="inbound" type="boolean" not-null="true"/>
        <property name="aaEnabled" type="boolean" not-null="true"/>
        <property name="wsUpldTool" type="boolean" not-null="true"/>        
        <property name="locationType" type="string" column="LOCATIONTYPE" length="2" not-null="true"/>
        <set name="groups" table="LOCATIONGROUPS" cascade="save-update" access="field">
            <key column="LOCATION_ID"/>
            <many-to-many class="LocationGroup" column="GROUP_ID"/>
        </set>
    </class>
</hibernate-mapping>

Model class for Location is just setter and getter methods.

I need to map my second table in the same mapping file as above and need to use the same model class for getter and setter methods.

Based on your clarification, you want to look at <join/>. However, as you gave no specifics I can only help you in general terms. Basically <join/> (same functionality as JPA @SecondaryTable) allows you to treat the joined columns between the 2 tables as one combined row to define the basic types for your entity. There are some caveats to that such as expecting "shared primary key" (aka a true one-to-one) set; see the documentation for full details. Anyway, assuming you have a secondary table named location_supp with a PK named location_id that refers back (FK) to Location.LocationId, you would say:

<class name="Location" table="Location" ...>
    <id name="id" column="LocationId" .../>
    <property name="name" column="name" .../>
    <!-- mappings for other columns from Location table -->

    <join table="location_supp">
        <!-- 
            key defines the pk column of that joined table which is assumed to 
            also be the foreign-key source column referring back to Location
        -->
        <key column="location_id"/>

        <!-- mappings for columns from location_supp table -->
    </join>

</class>
