Hibernate MappingException Unknown entity

Question

I am getting a mapping exception trying to use Hibernate - in a stand alone java application (using netbeans 8). I have configured my hibernate.cfg.xml and setup my hbm.xml file and mapped it, See below on how my app is configured. This is my first time using hibernate.

In my case problem was in incorrect package name: stackoverflow.com/questions/36524202/… — Дима Годиков

Please double check the name garmenttypes.hbm.xml correct.

May be hibernate cannot find the garmenttypes.hbm.xml

Try with the following.

Configuration configuration = new Configuration().configure("hibernate.cfg.xml");
configuration.addResource("garmenttypes.hbm.xml");

Hope this helps.

Try to put @Entity annotation above GarmentType class.

If you are using hbm files. Try to downgrade the Hibernate-core version. I used hibernate-core:4.3.5-Final And it worked for me.
