Hibern8IDE

The Hibern8IDE is an interactive graphical tool that allows you to

  • load a Hibernate configuration and Hibernate mapping files
  • enter and execute HQL queries
  • enter and execute Criteria (and query by example, QBE) queries
  • browse the result object graph

It uses Swing and can be started standalone, in your IDE, or directly from your Hibernate application. Hibern8IDE is available separately with the Hibernate Extensions package. See Hibern8IDE in action in this flash animation.

Dwight Shih has written a short tutorial about Hibern8IDE.
