Hibernate - ServiceRegistryBuilder

Question

I\'m just trying to learn Hibernate (version 4 final) but I have a problem when trying to create the session factory. Here is some code related to the problem:

Answer 1

Here is the deprecated method from Configuration that still works. It is doing a lot of hibernate specific setup that hibernate users wouldn't really want to do. Things like veryifying properties and copying them from one object to another. I have also been looking for a working example of Hibernate configuration for Hibernate 4 that does not use the deprecated buildSessionFactory() method and have been unable to find one so far. I believe that the intent is to deprecate Configuration entirely.

public SessionFactory buildSessionFactory() throws HibernateException {
    Environment.verifyProperties( properties );
    ConfigurationHelper.resolvePlaceHolders( properties );
    final ServiceRegistry serviceRegistry =  new ServiceRegistryBuilder()
            .applySettings( properties )
            .buildServiceRegistry();
    setSessionFactoryObserver(
            new SessionFactoryObserver() {
                @Override
                public void sessionFactoryCreated(SessionFactory factory) {
                }

                @Override
                public void sessionFactoryClosed(SessionFactory factory) {
                    ( (StandardServiceRegistryImpl) serviceRegistry ).destroy();
                }
            }
    );
    return buildSessionFactory( serviceRegistry );
}
