I'm currently hitting a known bug in Hibernate 3.1.3:
http://opensource.atlassian.com/project ... e/HHH-1560
I can't workaround since my application hosting provider maintains the System.properties file and I don't have control over it. They must have recently added a non-String value to that to trigger this Hibernate bug. This is a showstopper and my app is dead in the water without a fix.
I want to switch to a version of Hibernate that fixes this. Either 3.2CR3 or a prerelease of 3.1.4 (the final 3.1.4 isn't released yet). What do you recommend? I prefer stability over speed/features.
I've already had to fix a few minor issues when trying out 3.2CR3 and it's not yet running. How stable is it?
