Hi,

Anyone have tried JDK1.2.2 with Hibernate. I got

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: net.sf.hibernate.persister.AbstractEntityPersister: method getTableName()Ljava/lang/String; not found

with Hibernate 2.1

With Hibernate 2.0.3, I got AbstractMethodError.

For the website, it claims Hibernate works with JDK 1.2+. What's wrong? I have included JNDI classes in my classes path.

Try to recompile hibernate with your JDK and tell if that resolves the problem?

I tried to recompile with JDK 1.2.2. However, the compiler give me compilation errors.

I can compile Hibernate with JDK 1.4.2. Any hints? Thanks.

Leaving to others guessing what these errors were ?

The compilation errors are NOT javax.naming.* not found. ;-) They are about final variable not assigned a value, etc. I think Hibernate will not compile with JDK 1.2.2 anymore.

I fixed the problem. I recompiled Hibernate with JDK 1.4.2 and compiler option target="1.1". In other words, just add target="1.1" attribute in the javac tag of "compile" task of the build.xml.

The new jar is working with JDK 1.2.2.

I think the compatability guide is mislead to just say "Hibernate requires JDK 1.2 or later (some people have run successfully under 1.1.8)". It should include the instructions above so that JDK 1.2 users can fix their problems without spending hours to test and search.
