title: How to integrate LiquiBase + Spring + Hibernate without using hibernate.xml configuration file
body: <p>I already read a lot of posts regarding integration between LiquiBase, Spring and Hibernate, but none of them apply to my situation witch is:</p>
  
  <p>I'm starting a new project that uses Spring and Hibernate, so I was looking into a way to manage the database changes during the project lifetime. First I started using hbm2ddl but then realized that people say that this isn't a very good idea in production environments, so I came to the conclusion that LiquiBase was the way to go (so I think).</p>
  
  <p>The problem is that I'm not using a hibernate.xml config file (and all the examples I found using LiquiBase use a hibernate.xml), since I'm using java annotations in my POJO/DB classes and my hibernate configuration is made like this</p>
  
  <pre><code>@Bean
  public LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean entityManagerFactoryBean() throws ClassNotFoundException
  {
      LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean entityManagerFactoryBean = new LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean();
  
      entityManagerFactoryBean.setDataSource(dataSource());
      entityManagerFactoryBean.setPackagesToScan(environment.getRequiredProperty(PROPERTY_NAME_ENTITYMANAGER_PACKAGES_TO_SCAN));
      entityManagerFactoryBean.setPersistenceProviderClass(HibernatePersistence.class);
  
      Properties jpaProterties = new Properties();
      jpaProterties.put(PROPERTY_NAME_HIBERNATE_DIALECT, environment.getRequiredProperty(PROPERTY_NAME_HIBERNATE_DIALECT));
      jpaProterties.put(PROPERTY_NAME_HIBERNATE_FORMAT_SQL, environment.getRequiredProperty(PROPERTY_NAME_HIBERNATE_FORMAT_SQL));
      jpaProterties.put(PROPERTY_NAME_HIBERNATE_NAMING_STRATEGY, environment.getRequiredProperty(PROPERTY_NAME_HIBERNATE_NAMING_STRATEGY));
      jpaProterties.put(PROPERTY_NAME_HIBERNATE_SHOW_SQL, environment.getRequiredProperty(PROPERTY_NAME_HIBERNATE_SHOW_SQL));
      jpaProterties.put(PROPERTY_NAME_HIBERNATE_HBM2DDL_AUTO, environment.getRequiredProperty(PROPERTY_NAME_HIBERNATE_HBM2DDL_AUTO));
  
      entityManagerFactoryBean.setJpaProperties(jpaProterties);
  
      return entityManagerFactoryBean;
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I also found posts from 2 years ago saying that this option would only be available in version 2.0 (the current one), and I was wondering if this is already implemented. If so, how do I use it in a ANT script?</p>
  
  <p>I need to create the original database DDL and the following database change logs and import them into the production DB.</p>
  
  <p><strong>EDIT :</strong> I'm using:</p>
  
  <p>Liquibase 2.0.5</p>
  
  <p>Liquibase Hibernate 2.0.0</p>
  
  <p>Hibernate 4.1.4</p>
  
  <p>Spring 3.1.1</p>
  
  <p>Spring Data JPA 1.1.1</p>
