I'm just starting to learn Hibernate ORM, and the very first paragraph of chapter 1 of the reference documentation says:

It then goes on to say:

So I cloned the project source from Github by doing:

However, the "tutorials" directory does not contain a "web" subdirectory, and there is no "tutorial" directory at all! One paragraph in and I'm finding inconsistencies!

Clearly the documentation is out of sync with the distribution, but does anyone know where I can get these (presumably old) tutorials so I can follow along with the documentation?

I have run into the same problem

I am really curious where are the up-to-date example's source code. Come on fix it!!!!!

Hi,
it seems you have spotted an error in the documentation.
In the latest distribution package (http://hibernate.org/orm/downloads/) you can find the code for the tutorial under /hibernate-release-4.3.8.Final/documentation/quickstart/en-US/html/files/

Other examples and demos are on the github repository: https://github.com/hibernate/hibernate-demos/tree/master/hibernate-orm

I hope this help,
Davide

Yes, it was a great help, thanks!

Unfortunatelly, I also have found some mismatch data in the official doc (that's why I have written) :
http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/orm/4.3/manual/en-US/html/pr01.html
"tutorial is included in the distribution in the doc/reference/tutorial/ directory. " - It seems to be not correct.

http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/orm/4.3/manual/en-US/html/ch01.html
"All code is contained in the tutorials/web directory of the project source. " (OK, but where is that exactly? There is not a files folder under the en-US\html_single\ or en-US\html) And so on.

I would like to get the code of "HIBERNATE - Relational Persistence for Idiomatic Java" not the Getting started part's code.

Sorry, If I am wrong.

And in the Getting started code's, there are using a deprecated method: buildSessionFactory() (For example in AnnotationsIllustrationTest or NativeApiIllustrationTest) - Maybe it needs to review it.

Thanks
this is very helpful,
can you create a ticket with all the errors you have found on our JIRA: https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH/?selectedTab=com.atlassian.jira.jira-projects-plugin:summary-panel

This way it is possible for us to keep track of the changes.

Cheers,
Davide
