None of the other solution worked for me.
Even if I don't think its the best practice, I Had to add it into the code like this
configuration.addAnnotatedClass(com.myOrg.entities.Person.class);
here
public static SessionFactory getSessionFactory() {
Configuration configuration = new Configuration().configure();
configuration.addAnnotatedClass(com.myOrg.entities.Person.class);
StandardServiceRegistryBuilder builder = new StandardServiceRegistryBuilder()
.applySettings(configuration.getProperties());
SessionFactory sessionFactory = configuration.buildSessionFactory(builder.build());
return sessionFactory;
}
