+## Seminar 01 Tasks 
+This first seminar tries to be as minimalistic as possible. You will work with in-memory database and just one Main Class (MainJavaSe.java). You will be asked to implement parts of methods. Then you will run the method by modifying the Main method. For example if I want to try method corresponding to task07(), then I will modify the main method this way:
+  ```java
+		emf = Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory("javaSeUnit");
+		// BEGIN YOUR CODE
+		task06();
+		// END YOUR CODE
+		emf.close();
+  ```
+
+**Task 01** Your first task is to locate and download JPA 2.1 specification (JSR 338). It is a PDF file. 
+   
+**Task 02** Try to run cz.fi.muni.pa165.MainJavaSe from NetBeans 
+
+**Task 03** Run the main method also  from command line (using Maven exec:java 
+target) see documentation for Maven here http://mojo.codehaus.org/exec-maven-plugin/java-mojo.html
+
+**Task 04** Add configuration property to persistence.xml so that Hibernate writes all generated SQL statements to console. See A.2 section of
+https://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/orm/4.3/devguide/en-US/html_single/ . Rerun **Task 03** to confirm that you can now see the SQL
+
+**Task05** Put call to a method 'task05' under line "// BEGIN YOUR CODE". Implement TODO in task05 method. If you do everything correctly, you will see the following output "Succesfully found Electronics and Musical!" after you run the Main Method. If not you should debug your solution and find out why it doesn't work.
+
+**Task06** This task requires you to work with a detached entity. To start working on a task, just add call to task06() method into your main method. Then implement the task06() according the comments in there.
+
+**Task07** This task is associated with method task07. Parts of the method are commented out, because the implementation of entity Product is not complete yet. Look into comments in task07 and then uncomment the "testing code" in the task07. 
+
+**Task08** This task requires you to correctly implement equals and hashcode methods of Product entity. Note that you should use business equivalence. Look into the method comments for more instructions. 
+
+**Task 09** Quiz. You can check your answers after you take the quiz in file answ-s1.md 
+ 1. What is the main configuration file for JPA in your application?
+ 2. Where is the following text used and what is the effect of it (use Hibernate dev guide to find answer)? "hibernate.format_sql"
+ 3. What is hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto property in persistence.xml file?
+
+**Task 10** This task requires more investigation from you and work with Hibernate documentation. For the rest of the seminar you can try to configure your persistence unit to use database in your Netbeans. First you will have to create new database in netbeans (Derby) then reconfigure the persistence unit to connect to this database on localhost and set username and password.
