Configure the hibernate tool in eclipse 3.4

1. download the latest hibernate tools from the official website of hibernate.org. I use the HibernateTools-3.2.4.GA version.

 

2. decompress the downloaded package. There are two packages: plugin and feasure. Copy the contents in the plugin package to the plug-in folder of Eclipse, copy the content in feasure to the feasures folder of Eclipse.

 

3. Restart eclipse and click WINDOW> show View> on the menu bar to open a new hibernate folder.

 

4. Create a new web project (select Dynamic Web project under eclipse 3.4 ). Add the relevant jar package to the Lib folder (Add the required package and database driver package for hibernate Development)

 

5. select the src directory under the project, right-click New-> Other-> hibernate configuration file (CFG.

They are database dialect, Driver Class, connection URL, username, and password ).

8. Right-click the eclipse toolbar, select customize perspective-> commands-> hibernate code generation, and click OK. In this way, the hibernate icon is added to the toolbar.
