A simple example using a one-to-many relationship in Hibernate with an XML configuration to find, save, and update a record.
A Person has a one-to-many relationship with Address.
The jdbc:embedded-database element is used to initialize the test HSQLDB database and
the LocalSessionFactoryBean is used to configure Hibernate. The mappingLocations property is used to set
a list of Hibernate XML mapping files. The Person DAO is configured using Hibernate's session factory.
