ibernate has taken the IT world by surprise with its easy-to-use, high-performance, and sophisticated features for object-relational (OR) persistence. The most recent version of Hibernate (version 3, released on March 29) brings an important new feature to the product API: XML persistence. With Hibernate 3, Java application developers can conveniently persist XML documents into relational databases.
This new feature definitely should appeal to existing Hibernate developers because it follows the same persistence methods as POJOs (plain old Java objects), requiring a minimal learning curve. The convenience of XML persistence should appeal to new users as well. This article describes the Hibernate 3 persistence method.
