Migrating to Hibernate3.2

[Hussein Baghdadi]

Hi.
I'm trying to port my code (and knowledge) from Hibernate2 to Hibernate3.2.2
I read "Hibernate In Action" a couple of times.
Is it a smooth transition ? what obstacles I should expect (except of packages names )?
Is "Java Persistence With Hibernate" a necessity ?

John, I highly highly recommend Java Persistence with Hibernate book.

I know a lot about Hibernate, I have used it for years and have taught it. I learned a lot of insider information about how Hibernate works, teaching the class.

But, I would say I have learned so much more from that book. The book covers every bit of Hibrenate, whereas the previous version Hibernate IN Action covered a lot, but left a lot out. No longer the case.
