Hello All,

2) contact.hbm.xml
3) com.test.contact.java Mapping class
4) com.test.TestHibernate.java

Package name is com.test

After comilation xml files kept in com\test\ *.xml

But when i execute the application using TestHibernate.java it saysan error "hibernate.cfg.xml' cannot be found.

Where these xml files to be placed.

To keep it simple for learning, keep all your configuration files
along with your class files (i.e. your classpath)

This will definetly work. Later on once you master the basics you
may organize your configuration files into different folders.
