I’m eager to try out Hibernate/JPA support with Able. Does anyone have experience using either of these and want to help take a stab at building it out? I’d want to use annotations and conventions as much as possible. Other nice to have features would include:
- Minimal or zero XML configuration
- If XML configuration is used, a nice way to reload the Hibernate session/configuration when changes occur (such as we do with iBatis)
- Extensive use of annotations
- Ideally I’d like to link the WebWork validation/type conversion rules in with the ORM rules
Let me know if you’re interested in this.

Pat,
You know my love afair with Hibernate runs either hot or cold… but I think I can do two of the three above mentioned tasks whith Hibernate… I’m not sure about dynamic reloading… but im sure its nothing a little research can solve. Let me know if you want me to take on the Hib. aspect.
