I am recently back in Javaland from Ruby and Activerecord and was wondering if there were any database solutions that do not require me to set up XML files to use them, and if possible supply any configuration in pure Java?

If you like ActiveRecords in Ruby, you might be interested in jOOQ (Java Object Oriented Querying, a database abstraction library that I wrote). jOOQ requires only little configuration for its source code generator. Your database schema is mapped 1:1 to Java classes, which can then be used in a fluent API very similar to SQL itself.
Also, jOOQ doesn’t manage transactions, sessions, caches, etc like JPA or Hibernate might do. So there is no additional runtime configuration required.
