Hi,

I am trying a small hibernate application using Annotations. However, I am getting an exception when I run the app. Even though I have set the hibernate dialect in my configuration file, I am getting the error below.
Can anybody please help me in resolving the error? Thanks in Advance.

Error Details:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError

This is my hibernate.cfg.xml
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?><!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC

Please let me know if you need any details further.
