将对象保存到数据库时发生Hibernate Unknown Entity异常

Question

I've been trying to work with hibernate to read and write to a mysql database, but I keep getting a Unknown entity error when I attempt session.save() to save a Dept object to the dept mysql table. I've been looking for days for a solution and I have tried many different things, including annotating my code, changing the mapping xml file, the hibernate config xml file, etc. Most of the other people getting this error are using spring but I am not, so a lot of the other answers arent applicable. I feel like theres something small that I'm missing.

Launcher Class:

final StandardServiceRegistry registry = new StandardServiceRegistryBuilder()
                .configure() // configures settings from hibernate.cfg.xml
                .build();
        try {
            SessionFactory sessionFactory = new MetadataSources( registry ).buildMetadata().buildSessionFactory();

            System.out.println("sessionfactory made, now creating session");
            Session session = sessionFactory.openSession();
            System.out.println("made session");
            session.beginTransaction();
            System.out.println("making first dept");
            session.save( new Dept(1, "Math",  "CORE"));
            session.save( new Dept(2, "Science", "CORE"));
            System.out.println("commiting transaction");
            session.getTransaction().commit();
            session.close();
            System.out.println("SUCCESS");
        }
        catch (Exception e) {
            // The registry would be destroyed by the SessionFactory, but we had trouble building the SessionFactory
            // so destroy it manually.
            e.printStackTrace();
            StandardServiceRegistryBuilder.destroy( registry );
            System.out.println("exception, destroyed registry");
        }

What do I need to do to fix this and be able to save objects to the database?

Answer 1

Fixed, I had to make the sessionfactory a different way, like this

private static SessionFactory buildSessionFactory() {
    try{
        Configuration configuration = new Configuration();
        configuration.configure("hibernate.cfg.xml");
        StandardServiceRegistryBuilder ssrb = new StandardServiceRegistryBuilder().applySettings(configuration.getProperties());
        SessionFactory sess = configuration.buildSessionFactory(ssrb.build());
        return sess;
    } catch (Throwable ex) {
        System.err.println("SessionFactory creation failed." + ex);
        ex.printStackTrace();
        throw new ExceptionInInitializerError(ex);
    }
}

I'm not entirely sure why this worked but im guessing it wasn't reading the hibernate.cfg.xml the other way
