Question

I create a small java class for hibernate but its gives an exception.I'm using Hibernate 5.0.2 and java 8 on ubuntu 14.04. My classes and Hibernate configuration files is as follows.Hope someone can help me to find a solution to this.

This is the exception that occurs.

java.lang.NullPointerException

at com.gim.gimpro.HibernateTest.main(HibernateTest.java:18)

Here is my code

import org.hibernate.Session;
import org.hibernate.SessionFactory;
import org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration;
import com.gim.hibe.UserDetails;


public class HibernateTest {

    private SessionFactory sessionFactory;

    public static  void main(String[] args){
        HibernateTest hibernateTest=new HibernateTest();

        try {
            hibernateTest.setUp();
            hibernateTest.save();
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }


    }


    void save(){
        UserDetails userDetails=new UserDetails();
        userDetails.setUserId(1);
        userDetails.setUserName("Gihan");
        Session session = sessionFactory.openSession();
        session.beginTransaction();
        session.save( userDetails );
        session.getTransaction().commit();
        session.close();
    }


    protected void setUp() throws Exception {

        sessionFactory = new Configuration().configure() .buildSessionFactory();
    }
 }

UserDetails class

import javax.persistence.Entity;
import javax.persistence.Id;
import javax.persistence.Table;

@Entity
@Table(name = "USER_DETAILS")
public class UserDetails {

@Id
private int userId;
private String userName;


public int getUserId() {
    return userId;
}

public void setUserId(int userId) {
    this.userId = userId;
}

public String getUserName() {
    return userName;
}

public void setUserName(String userName) {
    this.userName = userName;
}

}

"Hibernate Configuration DTD 5.0" FYI.. that DTD doesn't exist and never did, that may be part of the problem — Alkanshel

This Exception can occur because of below 2 reasons:

Please check if package com.gim.hibe for UserDetails class is correct.
Also see if Hibernate libraries are properly included in the classpath.

I checked that two things. But that's also correct. @shankarsh15

check also if hibernate.cfg.xml is at the root of your classpath.

Gihan Over a year ago

Yes hibernate.cfg.xml is also is in root. @shankarsh15

No i'm using eclipse IDE(mars) .

add your Hibernate libraries as User libraries and not system libraries which I think is the issue.
