Source Control Repositories

Starting in March, 2006 Hibernate source is maintained in a Subversion repository hosted by the JBoss Labs project. Note that some of the modules present in CVS were dropped after import into Subversion; namely Hibernate and Hibernate2 modules. If you need access to these source trees, they are still accessible from the SourceForge CVS repository. For anonymous access, use pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/hibernate as the CVSROOT.

For anonymous access, the root repository URL is http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/hibernate/. For developer access, the root repository URL is https://svn.jboss.org/repos/hibernate/.

Package	Developer	Anonymous	Fisheye	ViewVC
Hibernate Core	https://svn.jboss.org/repos/hibernate/core/	http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/hibernate/core/	Fisheye	ViewVC
Hibernate Annotations	https://svn.jboss.org/repos/hibernate/annotations/	http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/hibernate/annotations/	Fisheye	ViewVC
Hibernate EntityManager	https://svn.jboss.org/repos/hibernate/entitymanager/	http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/hibernate/entitymanager/	Fisheye	ViewVC
Hibernate Search	https://svn.jboss.org/repos/hibernate/search/	http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/hibernate/search/	Fisheye	ViewVC
Hibernate validator	https://svn.jboss.org/repos/hibernate/validator/	http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/hibernate/validator/	Fisheye	ViewVC
Hibernate Shards	https://svn.jboss.org/repos/hibernate/shards/	http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/hibernate/shards/	Fisheye	ViewVC

Thus to checkout the latest Hibernate Core source (for example), type

svn co http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/hibernate/core/trunk

NHibernate uses Subversion hosted on Sourceforge. The repository URL is https://nhibernate.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/nhibernate. Using this URL directly will cause all branches and tags of the project to be checked out, transferring a large volume of data. To check out only the trunk (main development line), use

svn co https://nhibernate.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/nhibernate/trunk

You can also browse the NHibernate SVN repository.

Compiling Hibernate

See Maven Guide - applicable for Hibernate Core.

Compiling Hibernate Annotations, EntityManager, Search, Validator or Shards

See Ant Guide

For instructions on the Hibernate 3.2 branch see Compiling Hibernate Extensions in Hibernate 3.2.

Compiling Hibernate Tools

See How to contribute to Tools.

Compiling NHibernate

Go to the top-level directory of the source distribution (the directory containing default.build) and run

nant build

NHibernate can also be built from Visual Studio 2005. Run

nant visual-studio

to (re-)generate AssemblyInfo.cs files adapted for Visual Studio. Then open NHibernate-2.0.sln or NHibernate.Everything-2.0.sln.
