Hibernate Last Updated Date

How would I configure my hibernate hbm file to have a last updated date column? I'm trying to add a lastUpdated column to a legacy database structure. My DBA dislikes triggers and there are many places in the application which saves to the database.

Is there any lastUpdated property that I could add to my hbm or POJO which would automatically enter the time whenever hibernate insert/updates the object?

Thanks!

You should be able to add @PreUpdate and @PrePersist (from JPA) and set up a listener.
