Hey all,
After the recent fiasco involving converting a jboss application
that utilized Hibernate over to Geronimo, Viet Nguyen and I dove
into the samples residing in the Geronimo 1.0 wiki to try and get a
hold on the issues that were at hand, only to find not only
inherent issues with getting it to work as advertised on Geronimo
1.0, but also that it desperately needed updating in order to be
usable as a viable example for migrating an application utilizing
hibernate to Geronimo 2.0.x. Yesterday and into the night we
managed to get a new version of the hibernate Online Brokerage demo
app up and running, as well as documented on the Geronimo 2.0 wiki
here:

migration.html
Cool. Can't step through it at the moment, but hope to soon.
I wouldn't say it was a "fiasco". There was a Hibernate scenario that
hadn't been worked through for 2.0. Now it's worked through... :D
Now that this has been completed, we are currently working on
taking this the next logical step and getting all of the migration
examples that exist in the Geronimo 1.0 wiki updated and
functioning fully as examples for Geronimo 2.0, as well as
verifying that they examples do in fact work on the latest official
JBoss release as well (4.2.3.. blasphemous, I know).
Hopefully this will help to fill what has shown itself to be
somewhat of a large hole in our migration assistance and
documentation.
We will use this thread to update everyone on our progress.
That's great. Thanks a lot for the help...
