Eclipselink更新现有表

也许我弄错了,但我认为JPA能够更新一个现有的表(通过添加一列更改了模型),但在我的情况下不起作用。

我可以在日志中看到eclipselink试图创建它,但是失败了,因为它已经存在了。它不再尝试更新来添加列,而是继续运行。

<property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.url" value="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/jwrestling"/>
<property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.password" value="password"/>
<property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.driver" value="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"/>
<property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.user" value="user"/>
<property name="eclipselink.ddl-generation" value="create-tables"/>
<property name="eclipselink.logging.logger" value="org.eclipse.persistence.logging.DefaultSessionLog"/>
<property name="eclipselink.logging.level" value="INFO"/>
