In Relation To

Kind of knew people would ask about this... So why did we decide to deprecate CGLIB support in Hibernate? First I want to point out that Hibernate and CGLIB have a very long history (and a largely good history) in terms of working together. This is not an indictment against any of the CGLIB developers. They are good guys and as I stated above for many years Hibernate and CGLIB have worked well together.

Today we have released both 3.5.5 and 3.6.0.Beta3.

The Hibernate team is happy to announce the availability of the 3.6.0.Beta2 release. The major change from Beta1 is the merging of AnnotationConfiguration into Configuration (HHH-5375). AnnotationConfiguration is now completely deprecated.

The Hibernate team is happy to announce the availability of both the 3.5.4 and 3.6.0.Beta1 releases.

In triaging a reported issue I ended up having to once again delve into investigating PostgreSQL BLOB suppport. So for the sake of posterity and for the sake of my swiss cheese memory I decided to record my findings here.

Atlassian and Contegix (who together make the Hibernate JIRA possible) have found evidence that the Hibernate JIRA has been compromised through the recent JIRA exploit affecting numerous Open Source JIRA instances.

For those who were maybe not aware...

3.5.1-Final is a maintenance release of mainly minor bug fixes. Two fixes in particular were non-minor:

Yaay, we made it! :)

We are pleased to announce completion of the first phase of migrating Hibernate.org to what we feel will be a more stable, more collaborative and more friendly experience.
