I've got a project which requires both Jersey and Hibernate. Problem is they both use incompatible versions of a Jar file (asm.jar) under the covers. I've looked around Google and it appears that it's possible to get Hibernate to use another facility called Javassist, but when I try to follow the instructions it falls flat. I still get the incompatibility between these Jar files.
Obviously, from the stack trace the asm.jar that I'm using for Jersey is not compatible with the one for Hibernate. If I switch back to the asm.jar for Hibernate then my Jersey code fails.
Has anyone gotten this to work? Or am I just stuck in a permanent "Jar Hell"?

P.S My stack trace from running one of my Hibernate test cases looks like this:
