I have added the hibernate capabilities for hibernate 2 some time ago but did not actually start using hibernate. Now as i actually want to start using it there is the new version hibernate 3 out. I tried to upgrade it manually but I get strange Errors like “cannot convert session to session” in the class SessionFactory. So i thought the easiest way might be to over install hibernate 3 with your “add hibernate capabilities” feature. but this does not show up once you have installed hibernate 2. Is there a way to reactivate that feature?

Peter,
We would suggest creating a new project, and moving all your files into the new project and then re-activating the Add Hibernate Capabilities on that new project. There is a manual way to remove HIbernate capabilities, but I think it’s easier to use my first suggestion.

Hi!

It would be nice to support removing capabilities too. Is it possible to implement this in future releases?

greetings
Martin

Martin removing capabilities is on our todo list for the 5.0 release series because we are completely reworking capabilities.

We just upgraded ide to eclipse3.1/myEclipse4.02. We are using hibernate 2, and we want to upgrade to hibernate 3. We’d like to keep our current project. Would you please tell us the manual way to remove Hibernate capabilities? We already have those <hibernatedoclet> …. in buildfile.

To manually remove Hibernate capabilities you need to:

** BACKUP your project just incase **

1) Switch to your navigator view
2) Erase the .myhibernatedata file in the root of your project
3) Edit your .project file and remove the hibernate nature if one is in there.
4) Remove the HIbernate libraries from your build path and WEB-INF/lib directory. These files may be locked by Eclipse so you might need to restart to get them to erase.

Now you should be able to re-add Hibernate capabilities now, specifying Hibernate 3.0

I did the following, but still couldn’t Add Hibernate Capabilities because it is grayed

2) Erase the .myhibernatedata file in the root of your project
3) Edit your .project file and remove the hibernate nature if one is in there.
4) My project is ejb. I remove the HIbernate libraries from the lib and .class
5) I also removed hibernate related stuff from .xdoclet and xdoclet-build.xml(my buildfile for ejb project)

I restarted eclipse, and still couldn’t select “Add Hibernate Capabilities”

Thanks
Julie
