I'm using hibernate 2.0.3.

I have an error
Caused by: net.sf.hibernate.PropertyAccessException: exception setting property value with CGLIB (set hibernate.cglib.use_reflection_optimizer=false for more info) setter of org.astri.ims.ccs.pes.dataobjects.Firmware.?

I would like to set cglib.use_reflection_optimizer=false. I know this is a system level setting, so I would like to set it in hibernate.properties

I could do it before, but when I moved the code to a new project, i don't know why the file hibernate.properties cannot be read, no matter where I place it (from the document, it should be ok as long as it is in the classpath, but still it cannot be reached). I tried to set it in hibernate.cfg.xml in the following line

<property name="cglib.use_reflection_optimizer">false</property>

The previous problem still exists.

Could anyone give hints for solving this?

Be sure to put hibernate.properties to be seen from the same classloader that load Hibernate classes.

Or try the -D way to set
