I was trying to set up a simple project with Hibernate, so I downloaded the latest Final release of 4.1.10. I then started configuring my environment in Intellij but don't have the class called: org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence that I was going to define for my provider in my persistence.xml file. The HibernatePersistence class doesn't appear to come with the download of "Hibernate ORM v 4.1.10", am I correct in saying that? I downloaded an older jar (hibernate-entitymanager.jar v3.4.0.GA) off of the site and can see that the HibernatePersistence is located in this jar in the org.hibernate.ejb package, is this the correct route to go (to use this hibernate-entitymanager.jar in addition to the ORM 4.1.10 jars)? If so, why doesn't the HibernatePersistence class downloaded with the latest "Hibernate ORM v 4.1.10" download? Thank you in advance.

There should be an hibernate-entitymanager-4.1.10.Final.jar in folder hibernate-release-4.1.10.Final\lib\jpa
is'nt it there?



No, don't do that.
This old version of hibernate-entitymanager is not compatible with hibernate-core-4.1.10.Final.jar

Your correct. Thank you very much for the quick response.
