In Relation To

The second bug-fix release for Hibernate ORM 5.0 has just been published.

It is tagged at http://github.com/hibernate/hibernate-orm/releases/tag/5.0.2.Final

The complete list of changes can be found here.

I am happy to announce the availability of Hibernate Validator 5.2.2.Final.

This release fixes several bugs, including a nasty regression around private property declarations in inheritance hierarchies and a tricky issue related to classloading in environments such as OSGi.

We also closed a gap in the API for constraint declaration which allows to ignore annotation-based constraints for specific methods, parameters etc.:

I’m happy to announce the latest final release of Hibernate Search: Hibernate Search 5.5 Final. We mainly consolidated the features included in the latest candidate release and worked on fixing some bugs.

As a reminder on versions:

Hibernate Search now requires at least Hibernate ORM 5.0.0.Final, and at the time of writing only Infinispan 8.0.1.Final supports real time replication of an Apache Lucene 5.3 index.

The first Candidate Release for Hibernate Search 5.5 is now available, introducing integration with Apache Lucene 5.3 and several nice improvements.

After two candidate releases and a bit of quiet time in waiting for Hibernate ORM 5.0.0.Final, we now published Hibernate Search 5.4.0.Final: the first stable release compatible with ORM 5.

It’s my pleasure to announce the first Alpha release of Hibernate OGM 5!

This release is based on Hibernate ORM 5.0 Final which we released just last week. The update should be smooth in general, but you should be prepared for some changes if you are bootstrapping Hibernate OGM manually through the Hibernate API and not via JPA. If you are using Hibernate OGM on WildFly, you need to adapt your application to the changed module/slot name of the Hibernate OGM core module which has changed from org.hibernate:ogm to org.hibernate.ogm:main.

Check out the Hibernate OGM migration notes to learn more about migrating from earlier versions of Hibernate OGM to 5.x. Also the Hibernate ORM migration guide is a recommended read.

Today I have released Hibernate ORM 5.0 (5.0.0.Final). This has been a long time coming and is the result of the efforts of many folks. Thanks to everyone who helped us get here with fixes, bug reports, suggestions, input and encouragement!

A lot of development has gone into 5.0. Here are the big points:

In the last couple of months we’ve been working to upgrade Hibernate Search to use Apache Lucene 5, to keep up with the greatest releases from the Lucene community.

Today Hibernate Search 5.5.0.Alpha1 is available!

As the version suggests this is the first cut, but we’ll also need your feedback and suggestions to better assess the needed steps to evolve this into a great, efficient and stable Final release.

Hibernate ORM 4.2.20.Final was released 24-July-2015. At the time it was released, SourceForge was out of commission so distributions could not be uploaded. I decided to delay the announcement until SourceForge was back in commission and I was able to release 4.3.11.Final on 5-Aug-2015.
