Even, as a SCJA and SCJP I had to try 3 times to get Hibernate to work under Tomcat 5.0.19.

The example in the Hibernate web site is horrible, which is a shame for this emerging technology.

So I created a very simple example that works under Tomcat 5 and mySQL.

Hopefull this will help others get started.

The JSP page is named index.jsp:

<%@ page import="java.io.*" %>
<%@ page import="java.util.*" %>
<%@ page import="mypackage.*" %>
<%@ page import="org.hibernate.*" %>
<%@ page import="org.hibernate.cfg.*" %>
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<title>Greetings!</title>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<%
org.hibernate.Session hibernateSession = mypackage.HibernateUtil.currentSession();
Transaction tx = hibernateSession.beginTransaction();

Person person = new Person();
person.setMyName("Joe");
hibernateSession.save(person);
tx.commit();
Query query = hibernateSession.createQuery("select p from Person as p where p.myName=:name");
query.setString("name", "Joe");
for (Iterator iter = query.iterate(); iter.hasNext() {
person = (Person) iter.next();
}
HibernateUtil.closeSession();
%>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<table width="400" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="0" align="center" class="tableBox">
<tr>
<td CLASS="bluebanner" align="center"> Greetings, <%=person.getMyName()%></TD>
</tr>
</table>
</BODY>
</HTML>

The web.xml is:

<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.2//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2_2.dtd">

<web-app>

<res-ref-name>jdbc/hibernate</res-ref-name>

</resource-ref>

</web-app>

The Java source is in directory /WEB-INF/src:

package mypackage;
import org.hibernate.*;
import org.hibernate.cfg.*;

public class HibernateUtil {

private static final SessionFactory sessionFactory;

static {
try {
// Create the SessionFactory
sessionFactory = new Configuration().configure().buildSessionFactory();
} catch (Throwable ex) {
// Make sure you log the exception, as it might be swallowed
System.out.println("Initial SessionFactory creation failed: " + ex.getMessage());
throw new ExceptionInInitializerError(ex);
}
}

public static final ThreadLocal hibernateSession = new ThreadLocal();

public static Session currentSession() {
Session s = (Session) hibernateSession.get();
// Open a new Session, if this Thread has none yet
if (s == null) {
s = sessionFactory.openSession();
hibernateSession.set(s);
}
return s;
}

public static void closeSession() {
Session s = (Session) hibernateSession.get();
if (s != null)
s.close();
hibernateSession.set(null);
}
}

package mypackage;

public class Person {

private String myName;
private String id;

public String getId() {
return id;
}

private void setId(String id) {
this.id = id;
}


public String getMyName() {
return myName;
}

public void setMyName(String name) {
this.myName = name;
}
}

The hibernate.cfg.xml configuration files is:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC
"-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD//EN"
"http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd">

<hibernate-configuration>

<session-factory>

<property name="connection.datasource">java:comp/env/jdbc/hibernate</property>
<property name="show_sql">true</property>
<property name="dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect</property>

<!-- Mapping files -->
<mapping resource="Person.hbm.xml"/>

</session-factory>

</hibernate-configuration>

And the Person.hbm.xml file is:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-mapping PUBLIC
"-//Hibernate/Hibernate Mapping DTD 3.0//EN"
"http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-mapping-3.0.dtd">

<hibernate-mapping>

<class name="mypackage.Person" table="Person">

<!-- A 32 hex character is our surrogate key. It's automatically
generated by Hibernate with the UUID pattern. -->
<id name="id" type="string" unsaved-value="null" >
<column name="id" sql-type="char(32)" not-null="true"/>
<generator class="uuid.hex"/>
</id>

<!-- A cat has to have a name, but it shouldn' be too long. -->
<property name="myName">
<column name="name" length="80" not-null="true"/>
</property>

</class>

</hibernate-mapping>

The context xml for this example in Tomcat's server.xml is:


<Context path="/Hibernate" reloadable="true" docBase="C:\eclipse\workspace\Hibernate" workDir="C:\eclipse\workspace\hibernate\work">
<Resource name="jdbc/hibernate" scope="Shareable" type="javax.sql.DataSource"/>

Now just wrap it inside the CODE tags in your post and we can read it better.
