Hibernate on laptops involves copying the current system state to the hard disk and then shutting down the system. At any point in the future when the system is powered on the previous state is loaded and the system resumes with the same applications running as when it was hibernated.

Advantages:
You can switch off your system without having to save every piece of work you have open AND when you power the system on you don't have to waste time opening all of you applications again.

Disadvantages:
Sometimes it does your system good to get a proper reboot, it frees up blocked resources and generally gets it running a little better. Also, as all the information is loaded from HDD upon resumption, it takes a while before the applications become responsive again.

Hope this helps, I may have misunderstood though as this doesn't seem particularly related to Web Development..

-Neil

Yes Neil you have misunderstood.

"Hibernate is a powerful, ultra-high performance object/relational persistence and query service for Java. Hibernate lets you develop persistent objects following common Java idiom - including association, inheritance, polymorphism, composition and the Java collections framework. Extremely fine-grained, richly typed object models are possible. The Hibernate Query Language, designed as a "minimal" object-oriented extension to SQL, provides an elegant bridge between the object and relational worlds. Hibernate is now the most popular ORM solution for Java."

I thought it was an odd question for the Wed Dev section. I wish people would pick original names for things to prevent me from getting confused!

was the name first introduced by M$ or some other company??

 

by: override_y2kPosted on 2005-06-15 at 11:19:33ID: 14224262

Seeing as it's Java, i don't think MS had anything to do with it :)

Hibernate is also open-source

Thanks

I think that question would take a rather long time to answer. Your best bet is to read on www.hibernate.org where they explain everything about using hibernate.

Also i found this article useful when 1st learning hibernate:

Also, the V3 API is at:
http://www.hibernate.org/hib_docs/v3/api/

"Can anyone let me know how to intergrate Hibernate with Java Files and Databases??"

Essentially that's a 2nd question, as the original question has now been changed. I would recommend starting another topic to ask how to integrate hibernate with Java files and databases.

Original question was:

"Hai All
Can i know what is Hibernate and what is it purpose and the areas of application ,advantages ,disadvantages"

Information was provided to the asker that fully answered these questions. The links provided go above and beyond the scope of the questions asked. As a result i hope points will be awarded.
