Hello,
I would like to use dom4j session. But it looks like support for XML mapping was removed from Hibernate in version 4.1.
I could not find the XML Mapping documentation section in Hibernate 4.1+.
The newest version that has support for xml mapping is 4.0 (https://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/core/4.0/manual/en-US/html/xml.html ).
Any ideas why ?

UPDATE.
I have just found that the functionality was removed as a part of HHH-6330 (https://github.com/hibernate/hibernate-orm/commit/4a4f636caf9ecc62fe0d230f422ad3eab2517db0).

Is there any other way to retrieve the data from DB in XML output format using Hibernate ?
Thanks! Michal
