I'm the OP.  The manangement has the impression that hibernate makes 
sense for large jobs, with large databases and that hibernate has a 
steep learning curve.

Right now they are looking to move some functionality over from a poorly 
written Java web app for updating and inserting into about a half dozen 
tables in an Oracle db.  The JDBC is unweildy in that the tables have 
many fields and processing each into a PreparedStatement is messy and 
time consuming.    They are thinking that for these few tables it might 
just be quicker to do them by hand, than take time out to learn 
hibernate before they get time to really slow down to learn a new system 
(hibernate).

I don't have any experience with hibernate so that approach makes sense 
if learning hibernate is that involved.

So how about it, time-wise ( put aside issues of future maintenance ), 
for a half dozen oracle tables, are we better off coding some JDBC by 
hand, as voluminous as it may be.........or can hibernate for our 
purposes be picked up in a few days?

Thanks in advance for the opinion.

Steve
