Hibernate 3.6.6.Final is mainly a maintenance release with a couple of improvements.

There were a couple of dependencies that were upgraded:

  • HHH-6322 upgraded to hibernate-jpa-2.0-api-1.0.1.Final
  • HHH-6455 upgraded to Ehcache 2.4.3.

There were several improvements to dialects:

  • HHH-2614 caused LOB columns specified without a length to be exported with length 255 when using a Derby database. With this fix, the length is no longer exported for LOB columns, enabling Derby to set the default length to 2M-1 bytes. If a length is specified it will be ignored, so if you want a LOB column with a non-default length, then you will have to write the DDL yourself.
  • HHH-6386 and HHH-6420 provided improvements to Sybase and SQL Server support, respectively
