I started playing around with Hibernate Search this weekend by following the getting started guide.

Being a maven user, I attempted to use the JBoss published artifacts (from the JBoss repository) to make live a bit easier.

UPDATE: Emmanuel Bernard has commented and pointed out that the updated artifacts have actually been published.

It looks like the Getting Started Guide is referencing slightly incorrect artifact versions.

<dependency>
   <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
   <artifactId>hibernate-search</artifactId>
   <version>3.0.0.GA</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
   <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
   <artifactId>hibernate-annotations</artifactId>
   <version>3.3.0.ga</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
   <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
   <artifactId>hibernate-entitymanager</artifactId>
   <version>3.3.2.GA</version>
</dependency>

Seem to work a little bit better. It looks like there’s only a newer version of the hibernate-entitymanager available and that the hibernate-search artifact has been published with a version of 3.0.0.GA and not 3.0.0.ga.

In the end, not that big of a deal. Just need to do a bit more digging to locate the correctly labeled artifacts.

Thanks Emmanuel for the comment.
