具有hibernate.cfg.xml的MappingException

Question

I have a maven project that I am using with hibernate-core 4.2.3.Final . I have followed the advice provided here:

Where to place hibernate config?

Hibernate Tutorial - Where to put Mapping File?

and the config file in src/main/resources looks like this:

<?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration SYSTEM
        "http://www.hibernate.org/dtd/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd">
<hibernate-configuration>
    <session-factory>
        <property name="connection.url">jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/justHibernate</property>
        <property name="connection.driver_class">com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</property>
        <property name="connection.username">root</property>
        <property name="connection.password">12345</property>
        <property name="dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.MySQL5Dialect</property>
        <mapping resource="com/mycompany/app/model/Movie.hbm.xml" />
    </session-factory>
</hibernate-configuration>

while the mapping file is within the package com.mycompany.app.model alongside the Movie class:

<?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-mapping PUBLIC
        "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Mapping DTD//EN"
        "http://www.hibernate.org/dtd/hibernate-mapping-3.0.dtd">
<hibernate-mapping>
    <class name="com.mycompany.app.model.Movie" table="Movies">
        <id name="id" column="id">
            <generator class="native"/>
        </id>
        <property name="title" column="title"/>
        <property name="director" column="director"/>
        <property name="synopsis" column="synopsis"/>
    </class>
</hibernate-mapping>

Exception

The configuration cannot find the mapping file.

Answer 1

Place Movie.hbm.xml under src/main/resources and change path in your config file as follows,

<mapping resource="Movie.hbm.xml" />

Hope this helps.
