Hibernate buildSessionFactory () is not used for arguments (ServiceRegistry)

Question

I am new to Hibernate and I am trying to create a session manager. Here is the code to create an instance of SessionFactory :

 Configuration configuration = new Configuration().configure(config); ServiceRegistry serviceRegistry = new ServiceRegistryBuilder().applySettings( configuration.getProperties() ).buildServiceRegistry(); SessionFactory sessionFactory = configuration.buildSessionFactory(serviceRegistry); return sessionFactory; 

When I run this in eclipse, I get the following compilation error: The method buildSessionFactory() in the type Configuration is not applicable for the arguments (ServiceRegistry).

Using the latest version of Hibernate, shouldn't buildSessionFactory accept the ServiceRegistry argument?

Make sure you are using the latest version. You can run the following line of code to check the version of Hibernate.

 System.out.println(org.hibernate.Version.getVersionString());
