Hi,

I have implemented the example HelloWorld, and xhen I launch the app I get the following error:

----------------------
Exception in thread "main" org.hibernate.MappingException: Unknown entity: com.presseinfo.netful.model.catalog.product.offer.Offer
----------------------

I use in place annotations and hsqldb database with hibernate 3.2

tx

The Hello World example has no "com.presseinfo.netful.model.catalog.product.offer.Offer" entity, it only has Message.java. Maybe you want to download the working source code from http://caveatemptor.hibernate.org/

Yes,

In fact I have a difficulty generating the schema:
the error is:
-----------------
SessionFactoryObjectFactory - not binding factory to JNDI, no JNDI name configured
-----------------

and I dont know how to configure a JNDI name with hibernate conf

thx

1. This is an INFO message. Ignore it if it bothers you.
2. Follow chapter 2 of Java Persistence with Hibernate step by step.

Hi,

I have read it carefully and I found it very instructive.

But I had a question : what is java:/hibernate/MySessionFactory

Is it, as I suppose, an implementation class of SessionFactory ?
And if so, how should I implement it (I need an advice) ?

Third: I work on a e-gestion application, and we use Sun App server.
Do you better recommand JBoss, and if so for what reasons ?

Thanks for your book, very valuable.
Regards,

JNDI binding of the SessionFactory is explained in the last section of chapter 2 in JPwH. It's nothing you need if you don't know what it is.

Hibernate is best with JBoss Application Server, you get a few extra features (out of the box EJB 3.0 integration, extra deployment options, default persistence engine for other JBoss JEMS products like Portal, jBPM, Seam).

Having said that, Hibernate works fine in all other application servers.
