How can I integrate JDBC with Hibernate?

How can I integrate JDBC with Hibernate?

To integrate JDBC with Hibernate, you need to configure Hibernate to use a JDBC connection. First, ensure you have the JDBC driver for your database.

What configuration do I need in the Hibernate configuration file?

In your hibernate.cfg.xml, specify the JDBC connection properties like hibernate.connection.driver_class, hibernate.connection.url, hibernate.connection.username, and hibernate.connection.password.

Do I need to manage transactions manually?

Hibernate can manage transactions for you, but you can also manage them manually using JDBC if needed. It depends on your application's requirements.

Can you give me an example of a simple Hibernate configuration?

Sure! Here's a basic example:

<hibernate-configuration>
    <session-factory>
        <property name="hibernate.connection.driver_class">com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver</property>
        <property name="hibernate.connection.url">jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/mydb</property>
        <property name="hibernate.connection.username">root</property>
        <property name="hibernate.connection.password">password</property>
        <property name="hibernate.dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect</property>
    </session-factory>
</hibernate-configuration>
