We now need to create the Persistent Unit definition. We are going to create a file called persistence.xml in the src/META-INF directory with the following contents:
persistence.xml
<persistence>
<persistence-unit name="examplePersistenceUnit"
transaction-type="RESOURCE_LOCAL">
<properties>
<property name="hibernate.show_sql" value="false" />
<property name="hibernate.format_sql" value="false" />
<property name="hibernate.connection.driver_class"
value="org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver" />
<property name="hibernate.connection.url"
value="jdbc:hsqldb:mem:mem:aname" />
<property name="hibernate.connection.username" value="sa" />
<property name="hibernate.dialect"
value="org.hibernate.dialect.HSQLDialect" />
<property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" value="create" />
</properties>
</persistence-unit>
</persistence>
The Steps
- Expand your **
** - Select the src directory
- Find the src/META-INF directory (if one does not exist, right-click, select New:Folder, enter META-INF and press enter)
- Right click the src/META-INF, select new:File.
- Enter persistence.xml for the name and press “OK” (Note: all lowercase. It won’t make a difference on Windows XP but it will on Unix.)
- Copy the contents (above) into the file and save it
