to tell it don't use a data base, use a xml file to persist my class

<hibernate-configuration>

<session-factory>

<!-- Database connection settings -->
<property name="connection.driver_class">org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver</property>
<property name="connection.url">jdbc:hsqldb:hsql://localhost</property>
<property name="connection.username">sa</property>
<property name="connection.password"></property>
.... etc.

someone know how can i do this

You need to set the entity mode to dom4j. In you .cfg.xml you can set hibernate.default_entity_mode to dom4j, but if you only want some classes to be saved to XML, and the rest save to a DB, then the easiest thing to do is to get a dom4j session from your existing (DB) session. Use session.getSession(EntityMode.DOM4J).
