I'm trying a simple Hibernate shard example (Yes, odd, 3.0.0.Beta2 released 4 years ago) using Hibernate Core 4.1.7 and Spring 3.1.2 and hit this issue during session factory initialization:

Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'mySessionFactory' defined in class path resource [shardedspring-config.xml]: Instantiation of bean failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanDefinitionStoreException: Factory method [public org.hibernate.SessionFactory it.sella.lab.crm.sys.persistence.ShardedSessionFactoryBuilder.createSessionFactory()] threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/hibernate/engine/SessionFactoryImplementor

This is how I pick Spring and Hibernate:

<dependency>
        <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
        <artifactId>hibernate-core</artifactId>
        <version>4.1.7.Final</version>
 </dependency>
 <dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-core</artifactId>
        <version>3.1.2.RELEASE</version>
 </dependency>

This doesn't seem like a issue with shards library - it looks like a general issue caused by refactored SessionFactoryImplementor class. Referring to https://jira.springsource.org/browse/SPR-8885, I've also switched to org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.HibernateTransactionManager for bean 'transactionmanager' - it isn't helping.

Is there any functional workaround right now for Spring 3.x and Hibernate 4.x?

I too faced the same issue i searched some other sites and its helped me to resolve this issue.What i done wrong is hibernate version i used 4 in maven for transaction manager but in the maven i am configuring the hibernate transaction manager of version 3, that's incompatibility. I changed the spring configuration file like this.

<bean id="hibernateTransactionManager"
        class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.HibernateTransactionManager">
    <property name="sessionFactory" ref="sessionFactory" />
</bean>
    <!-- <bean id="hibernateTransactionManager"
        class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.HibernateTransactionManager">
        <property name="sessionFactory" ref="sessionFactory" />
    </bean> -->

I see that you are using HIbernate 4 with spring. So seems like spring & hibernate inter-compatibiity issue. So please visit below site for Hibernate 4 compatibility with spring.

http://blog.springsource.org/2012/04/06/migrating-to-spring-3-1-and-hibernate-4-1/

Else as another option try below version.

<dependency>
        <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
        <artifactId>hibernate-core</artifactId>
        <version>3.3.1.GA</version>
    </dependency>

Hibernate core doesn't require any dependency of annotations some make sure your pom does not have any dependency of hibernate-annotation or hibernate-common-annotation.

My working pom is as follows.

<properties>
    <spring.version>4.0.5.RELEASE</spring.version>
    <junit.version>4.11</junit.version>

By remove hibernate-common-annotations I got different error java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.hibernate.engine.SessionFactoryImplementor

This is to with version difference between session factory and transaction manager

here is the link for the solution [http://devjav.com/spring-java-lang-classnotfoundexception-org-hibernate-engine-sessionfactoryimplementor/][1]

Solution from the link above: Using right version Hibernate for transaction manager and Local session factory bean

org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.HibernateTransactionManager
org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.LocalSessionFactoryBean

 <beans:bean id="sessionFactory" name="sessionFactory"
        class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.LocalSessionFactoryBean">
        <beans:property name="configLocation">
           <beans:value>classpath:hibernate.cfg.xml</beans:value>
        </beans:property>
        <beans:property name="hibernateProperties">
            <beans:props>
                <beans:prop key="hibernate.show_sql">true</beans:prop>
            </beans:props>
        </beans:property>
    </beans:bean>
<beans:bean id="transactionManager"
        class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.HibernateTransactionManager">
        <beans:property name="sessionFactory" ref="sessionFactory" />
    </beans:bean>
