hibernate repository

In this section, you will learn how to use maven repository in your Hibernate project.

Given below a simple example to demonstrate you how to use Maven repository using pom.xml :

Example

In this example, we are going to generate simple java Hibernate project using Maven project builder.

For creating the project inside folder workspace , execute the below command in command prompt :

C:\workspace>mvn archetype:generate

In workspace folder, you will see the following structure, which is auto generated :

Create folder resources , put Hibernator's XML files inside resource folder as follows :

Adding dependencies for Hibernate and MySQL in pom.xml

Inside HibernateTutorial folder, you will get pom.xml file, add support for Hibernate and MySQL. Hibernate is required dom4j, commons-logging, commons-collections and cglib as dependency library, add it as follows :
