java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.objectweb.asm.ClassWriter

Hi I am developping a small application using hibernate2 and I bumped into the exception that reads java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.objectweb.asm.ClassWriter

Here is the stacktrace:

any help please

You need the correct version of asm jar on your classpath

---

you have some conflict with your lib. hibernate uses cglib-xxxx.jar and it uses asm-xxxx.jar. and there is possibility of having multiple version of these jar either in your project or the other libs you are using may also have some dependency on some other version, so it gets conflict with each other.
You need to remove your cglib-xxxx.jar and replace with cglib-nodep-xxxx.jar and use latest asm-xxxx.jar or just try by removing asm-xxxx.jar from your hibernate dependency, as cglib-nodep-xxx.jar will look for another latest asm-xxxx.jar in your project or webserver libs. You can find cglib-nodep lib from the link http://sourceforge.net/projects/cglib/files/
