org.hibernate.Query cannot be converted to org.hibernate.query.Query [javac] Query query = session.createQuery(sqlQuery);

Question

i'm updating my project from hibernate 4.3.5 to 5.2.10. i updated the jars but getting below error during ant build.

error: incompatible types: org.hibernate.Query cannot be converted to org.hibernate.query.Query [javac] Query query = session.createQuery(sqlQuery);

i can't understand why? Any help will be appreciated.

Answer 1

The Query object type of query is org.hibernate.query.Query . But the return value of method session.createQuery(sqlQuery) is org.hibernate.Query , not same type of query variable.

Answer 2

Your classpath should contain only single version of hibernate jars, version 5 in this case. Please remove any other version of jars if present.
