Upgrading from Previous Releases

Upgrading from Hibernate integration in Oracle Coherence

The procedure for upgrading to Oracle Coherence Hibernate Integration 1.0.0 in the Coherence Community, from Hibernate integration features in Oracle Coherence versions 3.x and 12.1.2, varies by integration point.

If you want to adopt to the new Coherence-based Hibernate second-level cache SPI implementation, which is targeted to the redesigned SPI released in Hibernate 3.3, then you need to do the following:

• Follow the usage instructions documented for the Coherence Hibernate Second-Level Cache module.
• In your application code, un-configure the old (i.e., pre-3.3) Hibernate second-level cache SPI implementation, i.e. you no longer need to set the Hibernate configuration property hibernate.cache.provider_class.

If you want to adopt the HibernateCacheStore from the Oracle Coherence Hibernate Integration project in the Coherence Community, which was merely moved from the Oracle Coherence product, then you need to follow the usage instructions documented for the Coherence Hibernate CacheStore. Note this implies changes to the Coherence cache configuration files used by your application, as the java package name of the HibernateCacheStore has changed from com.tangosol.coherence.hibernate to com.oracle.coherence.hibernate.cachestore in moving from the Oracle Coherence product to the Oracle Coherence Hibernate Integration project in the Coherence Community.
