The release notes for build 0.9 state the named sql query support was added. Can somebody please explain what this means to me?

I thought that it meant that direct sql queries were supported but I have read on this forum that calling stored procedures was not supported. So I guess I'm a little confused. It seems important that direct sql queries and sprocs should be allowed for the circumstances that hql does not support.

Thanks for any help.

Thanks for the pointer. Im traveling abroad and do not have an internet connection all the time. Is there anyway to download the complete Hibernate documentation that you pointed me to? Thanks,
