Hibernate is an Object-to-Relational Database mapping tool. It has nothing to do with Web programming per-se, except that it is one method of populating/persisting the domain objects used by the JSP/Servlets.

great statement ! its so clean ! you know, when you open a tutorial, they dont tell you such clean statement at the begining .

ahhh...i am gone now. what is domain object ? no, i have never heard of domain objects in JSP/Servlets before, did you mean simple class instances ? what do you mean by populating that ?


i am getting interested with this.

Thank you

hi, sedj,tim,dian.. can you please calrify my second doubt about domain objects ?

Thanks for the link of the tutorial. i will have a look for the implementation . do you people use this tool ?

Indeed, I'm using Hibernate in one of my 'home projects'.

A 'Domain Object' is an instance of a class which represents some key object/concept specific to the 'problem domain' you are solving with your code. For example, if you were writing an online shopping application, then an instance of a 'Basket' class may very well be a domain object. The individual doing the buying ('Shopper' class?!) could be another. The 'Item's going into the 'Basket' would be some more.
