Problems with hibernate c3p0 netbeans

Question

I'm trying to use C3P0 as conection Provider in hbernate. I'm working with netbeans 8.0 and I added the Hibernate 4.x(JPA 2.0) Library.

This is my configuration:

public Session getOpenSession() {
Configuration pgConf = new Configuration();
pgConf.setProperty(Environment.DIALECT, "org.hibernate.dialect.PostgreSQLDialect");
pgConf.setProperty(Environment.DRIVER, "org.postgresql.Driver");
pgConf.setProperty(Environment.URL, "jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/testdb");
pgConf.setProperty(Environment.USER, "user");
pgConf.setProperty(Environment.PASS, "pass");
pgConf.setProperty(Environment.POOL_SIZE, "20");
pgConf.setProperty(Environment.CONNECTION_PROVIDER, "org.hibernate.connection.C3P0ConnectionProvider");
pgConf.setProperty(Environment.C3P0_MIN_SIZE, "7");
pgConf.setProperty(Environment.C3P0_MAX_SIZE, "53");
pgConf.setProperty(Environment.C3P0_TIMEOUT, "100");
pgConf.setProperty(Environment.C3P0_MAX_STATEMENTS, "50");
pgConf.setProperty(Environment.C3P0_IDLE_TEST_PERIOD, "1000");
pgConf.setProperty("hibernate.c3p0.validate", "true");

return pgConf.buildSessionFactory().openSession();
}

When I call these method it throws the following exception:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/mchange/v2/log/MLog

Java Result: 1

In order to solve this error, I add mchange-commons-java-0.2.8.jar wich contains com.mchange.v2.log.MLog class but still without working.

PS: Apologize me for my English.

The hibernate-core doesn't come with the C3P0 module, so you have to add the hibernate-c3p0 module to your project dependencies as well:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
    <artifactId>hibernate-c3p0</artifactId>
    <version>4.3.8.Final</version>
</dependency>   

If you have it, try adding the C3P0 dependency too:

<dependency>
    <groupId>c3p0</groupId>
    <artifactId>c3p0</artifactId>
    <version>0.9.1.2</version>
</dependency>
