HbnContainer is a data connector for Vaadin based on the popular Hibernate ORM from JBoss. It is distributed as a Vaadin Add-on and it is used for binding entities with database records to feed components like tables, forms and trees.

If you make changes to the code, either bug fixes or enhancements, please be a good open source citizen and contribute enhancements back to the community. You can submit enhancements (patches, code), bug reports or feature requests using the bug tracker on GitHub and I'll consider them for future releases.

Community support is available for HbnContainer on the Vaadin forums. There has been a fairly large adoption of this project within the Vaadin community so there are a lot of people who can provide assistance. I will try to monitor the forums and answer what I can but I don't have a lot of time to be active on the forums.

Origins

HbnContainer originated with Matti Tahvonen at Vaadin who created it for an article explaining how to use Hibernate with Vaadin. I took over as maintainer in 2012 when Matti found that he didn't have time to maintain this project along with all the other work he was doing for Vaadin and for the open source community. Matti continues to advise and consult on this project occasionally, as needed.
