Whew, man, things start to get complicated with all these friggin frameworks.

I’ve got application A and application B, both web applications.

They both use, let’s say, Customer and Receipt and ForSale objects. All from a database. They also haev some of their own objects.

So I’ve converted application A to hibernate. Great.

Now I’m trying to convert the shared part, which was just straight up Java Beans that had some JDBC in them.

Problem is, there is project C which doesn’t actually execute in any way.. it’s just classes that are shared. It’s a POJ project… nothing fancy. I JAR it up, and my web applications use it.

Now I want to convert this common collection to Hibernate.

How do I go about this? I can’t convert it to a web app because A) It doesn’t make sense to and B) I need ME to automagically export my JAR for me when I deploy.

Wrapping my mind around it is.. well, perhaps too much to ask of my brain on a friday morning. I figured there’s lots of good Java brains here so I’d ask 😉

Thanks,
Greg

Greg,
Even though it’s a plain Java Project, you should still be able to right click on the project root > MYEclipse > Add Hibernate Capabilities to it.

Would this not include all those JAR’s inside my project JAR that ME creates? Making the JAR file huuuge?

We will eventually move over all project capabilities to a library-based solution that adds the files to your build path without copying them into your project, but for the time being unless you create a user library, MYEclipse will copy all the hibernate files in.
