Hibernate dialect for Oracle Database 11g?

Question

Is there a Hibernate dialect for Oracle Database 11g? Or should I use the org.hibernate.dialect.Oracle10gDialect that ships with Hibernate?

Answer 1

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
