Beginning Hibernate is ideal if you’re experienced in Java with
databases (the traditional, or “connected,” approach), but are new
to open source lightweight Hibernate—the most popular de facto object-relational
mapping and database-oriented application development framework. This book packs
in brand new information about the latest release of the Hibernate persistence
layer and provides a clear introduction to the current standard for object-relational
persistence in Java.
Experienced author Dave Minter and contributor Jeff Linwood provide more in-depth
examples than any other books for Hibernate beginners. The authors also present
material in a lively, example-based manner—not in a dry, theoretical,
hard-to-read fashion. And since the book keeps its focus on Hibernate without
wasting time on nonessential third-party tools, you’ll be able to immediately
start building transaction-based engines and applications.
About the Authors
Jeff Linwood has been involved in software programming since he had a 286 in
high school. He got caught up with the Internet when he got access to a UNIX
shell account, and it has been downhill ever since. Jeff has published articles
on several Jakarta Apache open source projects in Dr. Dobb's Journal,
CNET's Builder.com, and JavaWorld. Jeff has a bachelor's degree in chemical
engineering from Carnegie Mellon University. He currently works for the Gossamer
Group in Austin, Texas, on content management and web application syndication
systems. He gets to play with all the latest open source projects there. Jeff
also co-authored Professional Struts Applications, Building Portals
with the Java Portlet API, and Pro Hibernate 3. He was a technical
reviewer for Enterprise Java Development on a Budget and Extreme Programming
with Ant.
Dave Minter has adored computers since he was small enough to play in the boxes
they came in. He built his first PC from discarded, faulty, and obsolete components,
and considers that to be the foundation of his career as an integration consultant.
Dave is based in London, where he helps large and small companies build systems
that "just work." He co-authored Building Portals with the Java Portlet API
and Pro Hibernate 3.
