He buscado publicaciones similares con SessionFactory y falta Main (). Mi problema no está relacionado con ellos. No estoy seguro de si alguna jarra no coincide. Estoy probando un ejemplo Spring4.2.6 con código Hibernate5.2 usando JDK8 y obtengo esta excepción:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.hibernate.Session.getFlushMode()Lorg/hibernate/FlushMode;

Fragmento de código DAOImpl:

import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.orm.hibernate5.HibernateTemplate;

@Component("customerDAO")
public class CustomerDAOImpl implements CustomerDAO {
    @Autowired
    private HibernateTemplate hibernateTemplate;

    public CustomerDAOImpl() {
        System.out.println("___Created CustomerDAOImpl() object");
    }

    @Override
    public void save(Customer c) {
        hibernateTemplate.save(c);
    }
        ...
}

Mi archivo de configuración se ve así:

<bean class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer">
    <property name="locations">
        <array>
            <value>bin/connection.properties</value>
