Hi

I have just started to use hybernate and reading a tutorial "Road to Hybernate" , i built the first application and i am getting a exception i can't make head or tails out of.

Initial SessionFactory creation failed.java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/objectweb/asm/Type
java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError
at de.gloegl.road2hibernate.HibernateUtil.<clinit>(HibernateUtil.java:17)

it's occuring when i try to load the configuration
sessionFactory = new Configuration().configure().buildSessionFactory();

please help

Thanks

org/objectweb/asm/Type is clas from asm.jar (in hibernate lib) - you have to include this library in classpath

Thank you for that advice, guess i have miles to go before i sleep :)
