read moreConfiguring & Adding Primary Key to Collections in Hibernate
In previous article we learnt on how to persist a collection of objects of an entity class in a separate table using hibernate. And below are the following two tables are created in the database. 1. STUDENT for Student entity type object 2. Student_lisOfAddress for Address value type object (The default table name for this table gets generated based on – Entity class name_Name of the embeddable object in the entity class). Here ‘Student_ID’ column in Student_lisOfAddress is the foreign key reference of...

In our last Hibernate article, we learned about Embedding value object into an entity class. In this article we’re going to focus on saving a Collection in Hibernate. Consider a scenario where the student have lots of address. So in this case we need to create more no of embedded object in the student class, which is so tedious at certain point. In such case we can use Collection to solve this problem. This collection can be a list, set, map, collection, sorted set, sorted map. Hibernate provides the facility to persist...
read moreValue object & Entity object in Hibernate mapping
So far we have learnt how to write a model object and we learnt to annotate a model object so that hibernate create a table for us, then we learnt how to save, retrieve, update and delete the entity object in the database. Still now we have created the entity class based on the assumption that each member variable inside the entity class will have a single column in database. In Above table the type of fields of the class STUDENT CLASS is as below. ID is INTEGER type Name ...
read moreComposite Primary Keys In Hibernate
If the table has a primary key then in Entity class we configure that column using @Id annotation. Even when the table doesn’t need a primary key, we must configure one column as id (one primary key is must). Now If the database table has more than one column as primary key then we call it as composite primary key, so if the table has multiple primary key columns , then in order to configure these primary key columns we need to create a new @Embeddable class containing the PK fields: @Embeddable public class...
read moreAuto Generate Primary key in Hibernate
In our early tutorials I have used @Id annotation to mark a particular field as primary key, this Primary key is used to fetch data via get or load method. And we set the value of primary key manually each time when we are about to create a new record. In this article we shall learn to Auto Generate this Primary key value in Hibernate. Before getting into the above topic, let us have a discussion about Natural key and Surrogate key. Natural Key A natural key is a single column or set of columns which are...
read moreDifference Between Update and Merge methods In Hibernate
Often times, you will notice Hibernate developers mix use of session.update() and session.merge() At first look both update() and merge() methods seems similar because both of them are used to convert the object which is in detached state into persistence state, but the major difference between update and merge is that update method cannot be used when the same object exists in the session. Let’s look at those difference with simple example. Example :- Student current = (Student)session.get(Student.class,...
read moreTable per Class Hierarchy Using Annotation
In our previous tutorial we got introduced to Inheritance Mapping In Hibernate, In this article I will explain you about Table per Class Hierarchy Inheritance mapping. By this inheritance strategy, we can map the whole hierarchy in a single table. Here, an extra column otherwise known as discriminator column is created in the table to identify the class. In the table, for each record some columns will be empty; those columns for which the particular Java class does not have fields. The above is the Hierarchy of classes...
