Professional Hibernate

Hibernate is an object/relational mapping (ORM) tool that also provides
data querying and retrieval functions in a Java environment. Whether
you are using simple objects or collections, Hibernate reduces your
development time by handling most of the common data persistence tasks.
This code-intensive text will take you through Hibernate s major
components and show you exactly how to use it to enhance your current
development practices and toolsets. You will learn how to install
Hibernate, build the development environment, and configure Hibernate
for a variety of databases, including DB2andreg;, HypersonicSQL,
MySQLandreg;, Oracleandreg;, and PostgreSQL. Then you ll learn the
details of connecting to databases using Hibernate, creating persistent
classes and objects, working with SQL and HQL (the Hibernate Query
Language), and managing transactions. Finally, you will take that basic
knowledge into your real-world applications, learning to use Hibernate
with other tools such as Eclipse, Tomcat, Maven, Struts, and Xdoclet.
