hloader 0.7 released – easy object loading for Hibernate3

Hloader is a tool for persistent object instances, expressed in XML, into a database using Hibernate. It is a Hibernate loader, thus the name.

It can be used for:

  • loading reference data
  • loading bootstrap data
  • loading test setup data

More than anything, hloader extends an near zero cost of change to this data, thus supporting the Agile approach of evolving your database design along with you code.

This version brings support for Hibernate 3 and much comprehensive documentation.
