can anyone post the step by step procedure to use hibernate in my struts applicatiion

are you too lazy?
it seems you prefer that someone wastes time explaining you what can be found thanks to google...

New too however...

I started by first buying the Hibernate in Action Book.

I think downloaded the caveat example and looked at this

You need to understand the concepts of hibernate before you can worry about your struts application.

Then i looked at Spring support for hibernate this sSimplifys setting up hibernate.

Also would recommend looking at middlegen and the sample applicaiton that comes with that, if you want a tool to write the mapping files for you. see tools sections here.

For your struts application you should have already laid out a DAO layer in the application. this should be independant of hibernate. you might want to look at dao patterns first. Implement this pattern then hibernate should be easy integrate.

Just some thoughts.
