Package org.hibernate.service

package org.hibernate.service

Defines a framework for pluggable services, allowing for customization of key components of Hibernate, and abstraction of these components as SPI interfaces.

Services usually belong to a ServiceRegistry, since that's where Hibernate goes to find them.

Libraries may even contribute discoverable service implementations via the Java ServiceLoader facility.
