Hi Karel,

Thank you for your quick reply.

We use Geoserver/Geotools together with our own application. Our own
application is heavily using Hibernate. For this reason we would like to use
the Hibernate DataStore to add to Geotools in order to serve Geoserver. 

Why did you decide to abondon Hibernate DataStore? Was this because you do
not use Geotools anymore? Any information is welcome to us, we are in the
starting phase of the project. 

Kind Regards,
Andrea & Erik 
 












Hi,

I'm working on something along those lines: Hibernate Spatial. It's  
an extension on Hibernate so that it can work with JTS Geometry  
classes (which is the geometry used in GeoTools feature model).

Here is the project page: http://www.cadrie.com/projects/majas- 
hibernate/hibernate-spatial/introduction.html

NOTE: in the next couple of weeks the project will be moved to a new  
home (http://www.hibernatespatial.org/)

Hibernate Spatial was developed in part during the MAJAS project.  
There we worked for while on a Geotools datastore that used the  
Hibernate Spatial as backend. This code can still be found on https:// 
www.cadrie.com/svn/majas/trunk/majas-hibernate-datastore/.  I do not  
know how useful this code is at present. We abandoned development of  
the Hibernate DataStore because working directly with Hibernate  
Spatial was easier for us. If you're interested in this, I'll try to  
revive development.

Regards,

Karel Maesen
