Chris - I just happened to be learning Hibernate and have created an example application that uses Struts 2, Spring, and Hibernate together.
You can download the example application here: http://www.brucephillips.name/struts/Struts2_Spring_Hibernate_Example.zip After you unzip the archive, you'll find a README.txt in the project's root folder that will explain how to run the project. The application was created using Eclipse 3.5 with the Maven 2 plugin. The JDK used was JVM 1.6 on the Mac. You can import this project into Eclipse by using Eclipse's File - Import feature. You can also run the application using Maven. Navigate in a terminal (command) window to the project's root folder (the folder where pom.xml resides). Issue these commands: mvn clean mvn test (All 7 tests should pass successfully). mvn jetty:run When you see [INFO] Started Jetty Server open a web browser and navigate to http://localhost:8080/index.html. To stop the Jetty web server type CTRL-C in the terminal window. In my example application I have my DAO classes extend Spring's HibernateDaoSupport and I also use Spring's @Transactional annotation in the DAO classes. Both the Spring references below explain this technique (Spring Recipes especially provides helpful examples). References: Hibernate Made Easy, Cameron McKenzie, 2008 Spring Recipes, Gary Mak, 2008 Pro Spring 2.5, Jan Machacek and others, 2008 Bruce Phillips I have done a fair amount of reading today on the topic again and developed a few simple classes to support my service, model, and dao architecture for using Hibernate 3.3.2 and Spring 2 with Struts2. The problem I am currently facing is I get a detached error when deleting an object and I get a null pointer exception in SessionImpl.java when I try to locate an object by its id. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Hibernate-Spring-tp26346725p26353559.html Sent from the Struts - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@struts.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@struts.apache.org
