program using hibernate does not terminate
I met this problem also today, and I found the solution is, in the end of your main method (or thread), you should close your Session Factory, like:
sessionFactory.close();
And then, your program will terminate normally.
If You use JavaFX 8 in main method add:
@Override
public void stop() throws Exception {
sessionFactory.close();
}
This method will close session factory and destroy thread on program exit.
I had the same problem today, but I found another similar solution:
I inserted at the end of my code the following line:
StandardServiceRegistryBuilder.destroy(serviceRegistry);
And Ta-dah! the program ends.
