Apache Maven 3 Cookbook

Chapter 5
Finally, we create the main application to use our entity in App.java:
package net.srirangan.packt.maven.TestHibernateApp.app;
import net.srirangan.packt.maven.TestHibernateApp.domain.User;
import org.hibernate.Session;
import org.hibernate.cfg.AnnotationConfiguration;
public class App {
public static void main( String[] args ) {
AnnotationConfiguration configuration = new
AnnotationConfiguration()
.addPackage("net.srirangan.packt.maven.TestHibernateApp.
domain")
.addAnnotatedClass(User.class);
Session session = configuration.buildSessionFactory().
openSession();
User user1 = new User();
user1.setUsername("hello");
user1.setPassword("world");
session.save(user1);
session.close();
}
}
It's a very simple example that starts a session, creates a user, and saves it in the database.
When you execute this application, the console will show a log of Hibernate starting up and an
insert query to save the User that was created.
If you check your database, a new table named user was created with one record inserted
with the username as hello and password as world while id would be 1.

mysql >> select * from user;
|| *id* || *password* || *username* ||
|| 1 || world || hello ||
