Hibernal password encryption

Hi,

In Hibernate configuration file, we provide database user password in
<property name="hibernate.connection.password">manager</property> property.

My question is, is it possible to put this password in encrypted form. Or is ther any thing available in hibernate so that i can enter password in encrypted form.

Thanks.

Get your connection from a JDBC DataSource instead, and let the app server handle that side of things. Websphere for instance, stores the user and password as JAAS authentication entries.
