- How to setup and start Hibernate sample application. So I can learn Hibernate Tutorial and basic understand. Actually, when I search through internet there are many versions of Hibernate + need to download different jars + Configuration.

What is ideal solution to learn and setup tutorial? I am planning to buy book so at least strict with concept.

- My project has hibernate modules but till now could not understand the purpose of hibernate.


Appreciate your response and idea if you can provide to me links of hibernate or tutorial which contains code.

Can anyone suggest?

I think it's easier to do with Maven.

Hi,
in the Hibernate ORM documentation you should be able to find all the information and a tutorial the should help you to get start.
http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/orm/4.2/quickstart/en-US/html/

You will find more documentation related to all aspects of hibernate on the official documentation page: http://hibernate.org/orm/documentation/

Hope this help,
Davide

What is Maven?

Thanks David. I have downloaded version 4.3.6 of Hibernate.

Will start with tutorial.
