Hibernate version: 3

Hi,

I'd like to verify that a user can log into the Oracle database before they can use the application. I would like to use their Oracle user name and password for the verification. In VB, I would write something like:



However, since hibernate handles the connections for (very nicely) I am not sure how I can verify if a user has a access to the Oracle database.

Does hibernate provide a way to connect programatically? How so?
If not, does it provide a way to dynamically change the user parameters programatically? How so?


Thank you,

Marc
