NoClassDefFoundError: org/hibernate/cache/access/AccessType

Trying to make it works following documentation i've found a problem:

Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'transactionManager': Cannot resolve reference to bean 'sessionFactory' while setting bean property 'sessionFactory'; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'sessionFactory': Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/hibernate/cache/access/AccessType

This is hazelgrails 0.1 with hibernate4 ... are you aware about any problem with this configuration?

Same problem with HazelGrails 1.0.2. Used dependency hazelcast-all is only for hibernate3.
To fix the problem, you must include hazelcast-hibernate4. As the plugin currently uses hibernate-all, you must exclude it, as it already contains com.hazelcast.hibernate.HazelcastCacheRegionFactory for Hibernate3, so unexpected results may occur based on the class loading order.
Therefore, add to your build.gradle:

  compile("org.grails.plugins:hazelgrails:1.0.2"){
    exclude(module:"hazelcast-all")
  }
  compile "com.hazelcast:hazelcast-hibernate4:3.6.2"

TODOS for the plugin:

• replace hazelcast-all dependency with hazelcast depencency (base).
• Improve the documentation to explain to add the needed hazelcast hibernate lib, based on the used Hibernate version (4 or 5). I think it's better than implementing some dynamic logic to choose the hibernate-hibernate version dependency automatically (since we have now Hibernate 4, and 5 for Grails 3.2.x).
• Improve the example Grails3 project to use Hazelcast as 2nd level cache (currently it is used for Objects, only)
• Implement integration test application within the plugin

Will provide a PR when I find time.
