I tried looking around the forum for this, but didn't seem much.

Someone statedt that in order to get the sql and values as executed you would have to use some type of driver wrapper.

Is this stil the case or is there an easier way?

Just interested in getting either:

1) prepared statements with array of parameter values
2) actual sql with values vs '?' placeholders

Thanks

the sql statement could be displayed by set the show-sql property to 'true' in your hibernate configuration properties/xml file.

and the actual value of parameters...well i remember somebody said that you can show it by setup log4j.properties properly, you can give it a search in the forum.
