 If you have completed 2 versions of your product and the
product is now stable , working great without any mess up
and then
one day your user ask you to remove mySQL from
backend and use Oracle as I am thinking that this is
more good and efficient
2
Everyone knows that this will be like a bomb on the head of developers
Because it is possible but while doing this developers can suicide due
to extreme bugs in code, massive conversions of queries and may be
DB design
(For instance oracle supports foreign key but mySQL doesn’t).

 So , there should be a mechanism or a smart API which
provide us a layer between Database and code
 This layer purpose is to interact with DB and our logical
layer should have no concern or have no direct interaction
with Databases.
 So when we want to change our backend then nothing will
be changed and we can save our a lot of time.
3

 Basically Hibernate purpose is to cater this
 But not only this , Hibernate also provide us ORM

 While working with hibernate , you can bump with these
words which are the basic part of Hibernate
ORM
Mapping
Persistence
And may be
HQL
5

 Data management tasks in object-oriented (OO)
programming are typically implemented by manipulating
objects
 consider an address book entry that represents a single
person along with zero or more phone numbers and zero or
more addresses. This could be modeled in an object-oriented
implementation by a "Person object" with attributes/fields to
hold each data item that the entry comprises: the person's
name, a list of phone numbers, and a list of addresses
 Simply We can say that we are talking about Domain model
 So ,the mapping of domain model into entity relationship
model is called Object relational mapping or ORM
6

 For ORM , We map JAVA classes into database tables
 It is accomplished through the configuration of an XML file
or by using Java Annotations
 Hibernate can use the XML file or the annotations to
maintain the database schema
 Facilities to arrange one-to-many and many-to-many & all
other relationships between classes are provided
7

 Hibernate provides transparent persistence for Plain Old
Java Objects(POJOs)
 The only strict requirement for a persistent class is a no-
argument constructor, not necessarily public
 Collections of data objects are typically stored in Java
collection objects such as Set and List
 Hibernate can be configured to lazy load associated
collections. Lazy loading is the default as of Hibernate 3
8

 Hibernate provides an SQL inspired language called
Hibernate Query Language (HQL)
 It allows SQL-like queries to be written against Hibernate's
data objects
 Criteria Queries are provided as an object-oriented alternative
to HQL
9

10
 A “virtual object database” is created that can be used from
within the programming language

 Previous diagram shows minimal architecture of Hibernate
 It creates a layer between Database and the Application
 It loads the configuration details like Database connection
string, entity classes, mappings etc
 Hibernate creates persistent objects which synchronize data
between application and database
 Let see this architecture in detail diagram
11

 The above diagram shows a comprehensive architecture of
Hibernate
12

 In order to persist data to a database, Hibernate create an
instance of entity class (Java class mapped with database
table)
 This object is called Transient object as they are not yet
associated with the session or not yet persisted to a database
 To persist the object to database, the instance of
SessionFactory interface is created. SessionFactory is a
singleton instance which implements Factory design pattern
 SessionFactory loads hibernate.cfg.xml file (Hibernate
configuration file) and with the help of TransactionFactory
and ConnectionProvider implements all the configuration
settings on a database
13

 Each database connection in Hibernate is created by creating
an instance of Session interface
 Session represents a single connection with database
 Session objects are created from SessionFactory object
 Hibernate also provides built-in Transaction APIs which
abstracts away the application from underlying JDBC or JTA
transaction
 Each transaction represents a single atomic unit of work
 One Session can span through multiple transactions.
14

 Before starting any example , We should know about some
configuration files
 These files are needed for mapping and to load many other
properties and create database connection
 Hibernate provide following type of configurtions:
hibernate.cfg.xml – A standard XML file which contains hibernate
configuration like database connection, class mappings etc and which
resides in root of application’s CLASSPATH
hibernate.properties: A Java compliant property file which holds
key value pair for different hibernate configuration strings
Programmatic configuration: This is the manual approach. The
configuration can be defined in Java class
15

16
<hibernate-configuration>
<session-factory>
<property name="hibernate.connection.driver_class">
com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</property>
<property name="hibernate.connection.url">
jdbc:mysql://localhost/EmployeeDB</property>
<property name="hibernate.connection.username">root</property>
<property name="hibernate.connection.password"></property>
<property name="hibernate.connection.pool_size">10</property>
<property name="show_sql">true</property>
<property name="dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect</property>
<property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto">update</property>

<mapping resource="contact.hbm.xml"/>
</session-factory>
</hibernate-configuration>

 Once the hibernate.cfg.xml file is created and placed in root
of application’s CLASSPATH, the same can be loaded in
Hibernate using following API
SessionFactory sessionFactory = new
Configuration().configure().buildSessionFactory();
17
This above code will load default hibernate.cfg.xml file and
all the configuration mentioned in it
In case you want to override default naming convention and
want to have your own configuration file like
“employeedb.cfg.xml”, following API can be used:
SessionFactory sf = new Configuration().configure("employeedb.cfg.xml")
.buildSessionFactory()

hibernate.connection.driver_class=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
hibernate.connection.url= jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/employeeDB
hibernate.connection.username=root
hibernate.connection.password=
hibernate.dialect = org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect
hibernate.connection.pool_size=1 // C3P0(open source JDBC
// connection pool
//distributed along with
//Hibernate in the lib
//directory)
Note: Both hibernate.cfg.xml and hibernate.properties files can be provided
simultaneously in an application. In this case hibernate.cfg.xml gets precedence
over hibernate.properties.
18

 We can obtain a org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration instance by
instantiating it directly and specifying XML mapping
documents. If the mapping files are in the classpath, use
addResource().
Configuration cfg = new Configuration()
     .addResource("Employee.hbm.xml")
     .addResource("Department.hbm.xml");
19
An alternative way is to specify the mapped class and allow
Hibernate to find the mapping document for you
    .addClass(com.deltasoft.hibernate.Employee.class)
    .addClass(com.deltasoft.hibernate.Department.class);
Hibernate will then search for mapping files named
/com/deltasoft/hibernate/Employee.hbm.xml and
/com/deltasoft/hibernate/Department.hbm.xml in the classpath. This approach
eliminates any hardcoded filenames.

 A org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration also allows you to specify
configuration properties
.addClass(com.deltasoft.hibernate.Employee.class)
.addClass(com.deltasoft.hibernate.Department.class)
.setProperty("hibernate.dialect", "org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLInnoDBDialect")
.setProperty(" hibernate.connection.url ", " jdbc:mysql://localhost/EmployeeDB
")
.setProperty("hibernate.order_updates", "true");
20

 Let see in this example that how can we insert record in
MySQL database using Hibernate
 In this example , We will create a contact objecta and save it
in Database ……
21

public class Contact {
  private String firstName;
  private String lastName;
  private String email;
  private long id; //Contact.java
//This is a POJO class
  public String getEmail() {
  return email;
  }
  public String getFirstName() { //We Can Assume that contact is an entity and these all
  return firstName; // are attributes of contact
  }
  public String getLastName() {
  return lastName;
  }
  public void setEmail(String string) {
  email = string;
  }
  public void setFirstName(String string) {
  firstName = string;
  }
  public void setLastName(String string) {
  lastName = string;
  }
  public long getId() {
  return id;
  }
public void setId(long l) {
  id = l;
  }
} 22

import org.hibernate.Session;
import org.hibernate.SessionFactory;
import org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration;
public class FirstExample {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
  Session session = null;
//FirstExample.java
  try{
  // This step will read hibernate.cfg.xml and prepare hibernate for use
  SessionFactory sessionFactory = new Configuration().configure().buildSessionFactory();
session =sessionFactory.openSession();
  //Create new instance of Contact and set values in it by reading them from form object
System.out.println("Inserting Record");
  Contact contact = new Contact();
  contact.setId(3);
  contact.setFirstName(“Shaharyar");
  contact.setLastName("Khan");
  contact.setEmail(“shaharyarkhan@deltasoft.com.pk");
  session.save(contact);
  System.out.println("Done"); //same as we have update() , delete() methods
  }catch(Exception e){
  System.out.println(e.getMessage());
  }finally{
  // Actual contact insertion will happen at this step
  session.flush();
  session.close(); 23

 In the above configuration file we specified to use the “EmployeeDB"
which is running on localhost and the user of the database is root with
no password. The dialect property is
org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect which tells the Hibernate that we
are using MySQL Database.

It is better to get these jar files like this
 Go to http://sourceforge.net/projects/hibernate/files/
 Click on Download hibernate-search-4.1.1.Final-dist.zip (31.0 MB)
 Now a folder will be downloaded on your machine.
 Extract the folder and in extracted folder you will see a folder
“required” placed in “hibernate-search-
4.1.1.Final/dist/lib/required”
 Copy all the jar files present in “required” folder into your classpath

 <hibernate-mapping> element
The first or root element of hibernate mapping document is <hibernate-mapping> element.
Between the <hibernate-mapping> tag class element(s) are present
28
 <class> element
The <Class> element maps the class object with corresponding entity in the database. It also
tells what table in the database has to access and what column in that table it should use. Within one
<hibernate-mapping> element, several <class> mappings are possible
<id> element
The <id> element in unique identifier to identify and object. In fact <id> element map
with the primary key of the table. In our code :
<id name="id" type="long" column="ID" >
primary key maps to the ID field of the table CONTACT. The attributes of the id
element are:
name: The property name used by the persistent class.
column: The column used to store the primary key value.
type: The Java data type used.
unsaved-value: This is the value used to determine if a class has been made
persistent. If the value of the id attribute is null, then it means that
this object has not been persisted.

 <generator> element
The <generator> method is used to generate the primary key for the new
record. Here is some of the commonly used generators :

Increment - This is used to generate primary keys of type long, short or int that are unique
only. It should not be used in the clustered deployment environment.

Sequence - Hibernate can also use the sequences to generate the primary key. It can be used
with DB2, PostgreSQL, Oracle, SAP DB databases.

Assigned - Assigned method is used when application code generates the primary key.
29
 <property> element
The property elements define standard Java attributes and their mapping
into database schema. The property element supports the column child
element to specify additional properties, such as the index name on a
column or a specific column type

 Same like JSF and other frameworks of java , Hibernate also
supports annotations
 Now if we want to transfer our previous contact example
into annotations then we havn’t need “contact.hbm.xml” so
delete this if you want to introduce annotations in your code
 Now our Contact.java would be like this
30

31
@Entity
@Table(name="EMPLOYEE")
public class Contact {
@Id
@GeneratedValue
private long id; //Contact.java with annotations
@Column(name="firstname“)
private String firstName;
@Column(name=“lastname“)
  private String lastName;
@Column(name=“email“)
  private String email;

//getter and setters
}


32
 Now in FirstExample.java just change this line
SessionFactory sessionFactory = new Configuration().configure().
buildSessionFactory();
TO
SessionFactory sessionFactory = new AnnotationConfiguration().configure()
.buildSessionFactory();
And in hibernate.cfg.xml change this
<mappingresource="net/viralpatel/hibernate/Employee.hbm.xml"/>
TO
<mapping class=“com.deltasoft.hibernate.Employee"/>

33
We will discuss some these relations in our this session

34
 Lets take an example that
 Employee has a one to one relation with EmployeeDetail
 So, First we create a Employee class and then EmployeeDetail in which
we map them by annotations

@Entity
public class Employee {

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue
    @Column(name="employee_id")
    private Long employeeId;

    @Column(name="firstname")
    private String firstname;

    @Column(name="lastname")
    private String lastname;

    @Column(name="birth_date")
    private Date birthDate;

    @Column(name="cell_phone")
    private String cellphone;

    @OneToOne(mappedBy="employee", cascade=CascadeType.ALL)
    private EmployeeDetail employeeDetail;

    public Employee() {

    }

    public Employee(String firstname, String lastname, Date birthdate, String phone) {
        this.firstname = firstname;
        this.lastname = lastname;
        this.birthDate = birthdate;
        this.cellphone = phone;

    }

    // Getter and Setter methods
}

 Many Employees have many Meetings
So
 We will Map Employee class with meeting class

42
@Entity

    @Id
    @Column(name="EMPLOYEE_ID")
    @GeneratedValue

    @Column(name="FIRSTNAME")

    @Column(name="LASTNAME")

    @ManyToMany(cascade = {CascadeType.ALL})

                inverseJoinColumns={@JoinColumn(name="MEETING_ID")})
    private Set<Meeting> meetings = new HashSet<Meeting>();

    public Employee() {
    }
    public Employee(String firstname, String lastname) {
    }
}

@Entity
@Table(name="MEETING")
public class Meeting {

    @Id
    @Column(name="MEETING_ID")
    @GeneratedValue
    private Long meetingId;

    @Column(name="SUBJECT")
    private String subject;

    @Column(name="MEETING_DATE")
    private Date meetingDate;

    @ManyToMany(mappedBy="meetings")
    private Set<Employee> employees = new HashSet<Employee>();

    public Meeting(String subject) {
        this.subject = subject;
        this.meetingDate = new Date();
    }

}
43

44
public class Main {


        SessionFactory sf = new AnnotationConfiguration().configure()


        Meeting meeting1 = new Meeting("Quaterly Sales meeting");
        Meeting meeting2 = new Meeting("Weekly Status meeting");

        Employee employee1 = new Employee("Sergey", "Brin");
        Employee employee2 = new Employee("Larry", "Page");

        employee1.getMeetings().add(meeting1);

        session.save(employee1);
        session.save(employee2);

        session.getTransaction().commit();
        session.close();
    }
}

 Hibernate Query Language or HQL for short is extremely
powerful query language
 HQL is much like SQL and are case-insensitive, except for
the names of the Java Classes and properties
 Hibernate Query Language is used to execute queries against
database
 Hibernate automatically generates the sql query and execute
it against underlying database if HQL is used in the
application.
 Hibernate Query Language uses Classes and properties
instead of tables and columns.
45

46
 Subqueries
Subqueries are nothing but its a query within another query. Hibernate
supports Subqueries if the underlying database supports it.

 //Using from Clause

String SQL_QUERY ="from Insurance insurance";

Query query = session.createQuery(SQL_QUERY);

for(Iterator it=query.iterate();it.hasNext();){
Insurance insurance=(Insurance)it.next();
System.out.println("ID: " +
insurance.getLngInsuranceId());
System.out.println("First
Name: " + insurance.getInsuranceName());
}
47

String SQL_QUERY ="Select insurance.
lngInsuranceId,insurance.insuranceName," +
"insurance.investementAmount,insurance.
investementDate from Insurance insurance";
Query query = session.createQuery(SQL_QUERY);
for(Iterator it=query.iterate();it.hasNext();){
Object[] row = (Object[]) it.next();
System.out.println("ID: " + row[0]);
System.out.println("Name: " + row[1]);
System.out.println("Amount: " + row[2]);
}
It returns resultset in form of objects
48

String SQL_QUERY =" from Insurance
as insurance where insurance.lngInsuranceId='1'";
Query query = session.createQuery
(SQL_QUERY);
//remaining code
49

String SQL_QUERY = "select avg
(investementAmount) from Insurance insurance";
Query query = sess.createQuery(SQL_QUERY);
List list = query.list();
System.out.println("Average of
Invested Amount: " + list.get(0));
__________________________________________________
String SQL_QUERY = "select
max(investementAmount)from Insurance insurance";
Query query = sess.createQuery(SQL_QUERY);
List list = query.list();
System.out.println("Max Invested Amount: " + list.get(0);
