Q:

to save very basic column values to my order table via hibernate

I am trying to save very basic column values to my order table via hibernate. The columns are Customer no,[enter image description here][1] an integer type.I have created my order class and included the annotations. not sure where is the syntax error in my SQL. Please help. 
the main class file looks good.
The DB connection is successful!
not sure when I try to save the object, it throws a SQL syntax error.
thanks! Please find my POJO and relevant mappings/annotations.
this is my Order Class: import javax.persistence.Column;
import javax.persistence.Entity;
import javax.persistence.GeneratedValue;
import javax.persistence.GenerationType;
import javax.persistence.Id;
import javax.persistence.Table;

@Entity
@Table(name="ORDER")
public class Order {

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    @Column(name="Order_no")
    private int _OrderNo;

    @Column(name="Customer_no")
    private int _CustomerNo;

    public Order() {

    }

    public Order(int CustomerNo) {

        this._CustomerNo = CustomerNo;
    }

    public int get_OrderNo() {
        return _OrderNo;
    }

    public void set_OrderNo(int OrderNo) {
        this._OrderNo = OrderNo;
    }

    public int get_CustomerNo() {
        return _CustomerNo;
    }

    public void set_CustomerNo(int CustomerNo) {
        this._CustomerNo = CustomerNo;
    }

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return "Order [_OrderNo=" + _OrderNo + ",  _CustomerNo=" + _CustomerNo + "]";
    }

}  

this is my actual object saving file.
public class CreateOrder {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        SessionFactory factory = new Configuration().configure("hibernate.cfg.xml").addAnnotatedClass(Order.class)
                .buildSessionFactory();

        Session session = factory.getCurrentSession();

        try {

            System.out.println("Creating the Order Object.......");

            Order tempOrder = new Order(123);

            session.beginTransaction();

            System.out.println("Saving the Order ");
            session.save(tempOrder);

            session.getTransaction().commit();
            System.out.println("Done!!");
        }

        finally {
            factory.close();
        }
    }

}

A:

The problem is with your Table nam @Table(name="ORDER")
ORDER is reserved keyword in MySQL (you probably heard about ORDER BY?) thus it cannot be used directly as table name in in INSERT. The simplest way will be to change table name to somethig else, eg ORDERS 
One workaround is to include quotemarks in table name like this
@Table(name="`ORDER`") 

or for JPA2
@Table(name="\"ORDER\"")

but those may break RDMBS compatibility. IMHO tables should be named in plural form.
