This is an old thread, but still relevant to T5.1. I think Daniel is completely right; the DefaultHibernateConfigurer always calls Configuration.configure() which always sends Hibernate looking for hibernate.cfg.xml. I know it's not too difficult to create your own implementation of HibernateConfigurer and make it do what you want, but I think at least the case where you just want to read from hibernate config file with some other name is a fairly common scenario and the filename could be just a property of DefaultHibernateConfigurer that by default returns "hibernate.cfg.xml" but which you could set to a different value. I know at least Kristian M. has worked on similar issues, what do people think, should I open an enhancement request for it?
