Just to clarify the clarifications of the previous clarifications ;)
Hi,
Just to clarify the clarification :
> Finally, the licensing issue is either a
huge difference or a doesn't-matter depending on your
company's lawyers
and/or how you intend to distribute the application -- OJB is ASL Hibernate is LGPL.
Just remember to read of license faq which states that Hibernate can be used in any project commercially or not - and without
making your
project opened source!
I was about to say the LGPL is not as simple as that; but having just read the License FAQ, I see that Hibernate have been very clear about how they interpret the LGPL. All credit to the hibenate team for that ! I still think that corporate lawyers may disagree with the "hibernate" interpretation.
Yes, we hear this sometimes. But we have not yet found a license that signals our intent better than LGPL - and we think that with our very clear statement on how it should be interpreted regarding Hibernate all should be safe. Geez - the core developers are using this stuff in commercial systems, so I think everyone will be pretty safe ;)
pretty much
needs to know the JNDI lookup for your DataSource in its
configuration).
ok - did not knew that. I seem to remember using OJB before without requiring
any kind of JNDI!?
Yes, you can do that (not use JNDI). Brian's just saying that with hibernate you (as a hibernate user) can create your own connection and give to hibernate to be used. With OJB, you have to do a bit more work to achieve the same gaol.
Ok.
