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: http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC20/jboss-to-geronimo-hibernate-migration.html
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. Thanks -- Erik B. Craig
