我正在使用Hibernate最新版本4.3.5.Final。

我的hibernate.cfg.xml文件内容：

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC
    "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD 3.0//EN"
    "http://hibernate.org/dtd/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd">
<hibernate-configuration>
<session-factory>
    <property name="hibernate.connection.driver_class">com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</property>
    <property name="hibernate.connection.url">jdbc:mysql://localhost/Test</property>
    <property name="hibernate.connection.username">pankaj</property>
    <property name="hibernate.connection.password">xxxx</property>
    <property name="hibernate.dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect</property>

    <mapping resource="employee.hbm.xml"/>
</session-factory>

</hibernate-configuration>

创建SessionFactory的实用程序类：

package com.example;
import org.hibernate.SessionFactory;
import org.hibernate.boot.registry.StandardServiceRegistryBuilder;
import org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration;

public class HibernateUtil {

private static final SessionFactory sessionFactory = buildSessionFactory();

private static SessionFactory buildSessionFactory() {
    try {
        // Create the SessionFactory from hibernate.cfg.xml
        Configuration configuration = new Configuration();
        configuration.configure("hibernate.cfg.xml");
        System.out.println("Hibernate Configuration loaded");

        SessionFactory sessionFactory = configuration.buildSessionFactory(new StandardServiceRegistryBuilder().build());

        return sessionFactory;
    }
    catch (Throwable ex) {
        // Make sure you log the exception, as it might be swallowed
        System.err.println("Initial SessionFactory creation failed." + ex);
        throw new ExceptionInInitializerError(ex);
    }
}

public static SessionFactory getSessionFactory() {
    return sessionFactory;
}
}

在我的main()方法中使用它时，出现以下异常：
