Hibernate dialect for Oracle Database 11g?
Is there a Hibernate dialect for Oracle Database 11g? Or should I use the org.hibernate.dialect.Oracle10gDialect
that ships with Hibernate?
Use the Oracle 10g dialect. Also Hibernate 3.3.2+ is required for recent JDBC drivers (the internal class structure changed - symptoms will be whining about an abstract class).
Dialect of Oracle 11g is same as Oracle 10g (org.hibernate.dialect.Oracle10gDialect). Source: http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/orm/3.6/reference/en-US/html/session-configuration.html#configuration-optional-dialects
According to supported databases, Oracle 11g is not officially supported. Although, I believe you shouldn't have any problems using org.hibernate.dialect.OracleDialect
