In the discussion about multiple row insert into the Oracle two approaches were demonstrated:
First: 
insert into pager (PAG_ID,PAG_PARENT,PAG_NAME,PAG_ACTIVE)
          select 8000,0,'Multi 8000',1 from dual
union all select 8001,0,'Multi 8001',1 from dual
Second:
INSERT ALL
   INTO t (col1, col2, col3) VALUES ('val1_1', 'val1_2', ...
            
           
          
            
            Let's say we're having an application which should be able to store all kind of products. Each product has at least an ID and a Name but all other attributes can be defined by the user himself.
E.g. He could create a productgroup Ipods which would contain attributes capacity and generation
E.g. He could create a productgroup TShirts wi...
            
           
          
            
            Is it possible to configure Hibernate to use a javax.sql.DataSource instance?
My application already has an instance of javax.sql.DataSource and I'd rather not re-configure the database url, user, password, driver etc just for hibernate.

            SQL Server 2000 was deployed with English Query. At that time, I was young and new to SQL so I skipped that chapter. Now after years, there is again an idea of making a logical program which can understand simple user questions.
Is there any alternative to that? Where is English Query now?
