hibernate-annotations: Relational persistence and query service

Name:	hibernate-annotations	Vendor:	JPackage Project
Version:	3.0	License:	LGPL
Release:	0.b2.1jpp	URL:	http://annotations.hibernate.org/

Summary

Hibernate, like all other object/relational mapping tools, requires metadata that governs the transformation of data from one representation to the other (and vice versa). In Hibernate 2.x, mapping metadata is most of the time declared in XML text files. Another option is XDoclet, utilizing Javadoc source code annotations and a preprocessor at compile time. The same kind of annotation support is now available in the standard JDK, although more powerful and better supported by tools. IntelliJ IDEA, for example, supports auto-completion and syntax highlighting of JDK 5.0 annotations. The EJB3 specification standardizes the basic APIs and the metadata (using JDK 5.0 annotations) needed for any object/relational persistence mechanism. Hibernate EntityManager for EJB3 implements the programming interfaces and lifecycle rules as defined by the EJB3 persistence specification. Both Hibernate EntityManager and Hibernate Annotations are available in standalone preview releases, however, they require Hibernate 3.1 and JDK 5.0. If you are not using EJB3 persistence, please continue using Hibernate 3.0.x (with any JDK supported). The Hibernate Annotations package provides annotations for Standard JSR-220 defined O/R mapping Hibernate O/R mapping extensions Data validation via the Hibernate Validator framework
