| Hibernate Example |
| ----------------- |
| |
| WARNING: This example requires Java 5.0 |
| |
| This example demonstrates how a class can be mapped with Hibernate and still be treated as a normal Grails domain class. Including the ability to: |
| |
| - Scaffold the domain class |
| - Validate Against constraints |
| - Access dynamic methods |
| |
| The domain class in question can be found in "src/java/com/recipes/Recipe.java" and is mapped using the Hibernate annotation support. |
| |
| In order for this to work the Grails data source has been configured to use a special GrailsAnnotationConfiguration instance at the line: |
| |
| @Property configClass = GrailsAnnotationConfiguration.class |
| |
| This is only necessary if you use Hibernate annotations, with normal XML Hibernate mapping no extra configuration is needed. |
| |
| The only remaining thing to be done is the "hibernate.cfg.xml" file is placed within the "hibernate" directory and contains a mapping for the class: |
| |
| |
| <hibernate-configuration> |
| <session-factory> |
| <mapping package="com.recipes" /> |
| <mapping class="com.recipes.Recipe" /> |
| </session-factory> |
| </hibernate-configuration> |
| |
| To run the example after installing Grails type: |
| |
| grails init |
| grails run-app |
| |
| And then in your browser go to: |
| |
| http://localhost:8080/recipes/recipe/list |
