Pergunta:

Mention two components of Hibernate configuration object.

Resposta:

In Hibernate, the configuration object is typically represented by the Configuration class, which is used to set up the Hibernate environment. Two key components of the Hibernate configuration object are:

  1. Database Connection Properties: This includes settings such as the database URL, username, password, and the JDBC driver class. These properties are essential for establishing a connection to the database. For example:

    configuration.setProperty("hibernate.connection.url", "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/mydb");
    configuration.setProperty("hibernate.connection.username", "root");
    configuration.setProperty("hibernate.connection.password", "password");
    configuration.setProperty("hibernate.connection.driver_class", "com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver");
    
  2. Mapping Resources: This component includes the mapping files or annotated classes that define the entity mappings. You can specify XML mapping files or use annotations in your entity classes. For example:

    configuration.addResource("com/example/model/Employee.hbm.xml");
    // or for annotated classes
    configuration.addAnnotatedClass(Employee.class);
    

These components are crucial for Hibernate to understand how to connect to the database and how to map Java objects to database tables.
