but none of the hbm.xml changes are not reflected in the console
What are you getting in the console that makes you feel lazy loading isn't working? Can you post your console output please?
Can you also post you code between the session open and close. I would like to see every single line of code
including any system.out.println()s you have... I mean do not modify anything in the posted code. I am telling you this because even a sysout of your core entity can initialize the collection within the core entity. So please post the complete code between session open and close.
