Creating the session for Hibernate ORM (newer version with StandardServiceRegistryBuilder)

Intro to Hibernate Session

package hibernate;

import org.hibernate.SessionFactory;
import org.hibernate.boot.registry.StandardServiceRegistryBuilder;
import org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration;
import org.hibernate.service.ServiceRegistry;



public class hibernateUtils {
	private static SessionFactory sessionFactory;
	private static ServiceRegistry serviceRegistry;
	
	static
	{
		try
		{
			Configuration configuration = new Configuration().configure();
			serviceRegistry = new StandardServiceRegistryBuilder().applySettings(configuration.getProperties()).build();
			sessionFactory = configuration.buildSessionFactory(serviceRegistry);
		}
		finally
		{
			
		}
	}
	
	public static SessionFactory getSessionFactory()
	{
		return sessionFactory;
	}
	

}

using Session to open and close

package hibernate;

import org.hibernate.Session;

public class ProteinTracker {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		Session session = hibernateUtils.getSessionFactory().openSession();
		session.close();

	}

}
