Types of hibernate bean states

As of we know hibernate follows the ORM features, Java bean class maps with database table. While mapping java bean class with database table it traverse through different types of states. That are Transient, Persistent and Detached states. 

Different states of POJO class object:
1. Transient state:
  • Object is created by programmer with data. But is doesn't represent any table row.
  • This object does not contains any primary key value.
  • The object which is created for POJO class and which is not under control of hibernate application resides in transient state.
2. Persistent state:
  • The object that represents table row with primary key and managed under control of hibernate software is called as persistent state.
  • This object will be in synchronization with table row. 
  • Hibernate application developer's uses this kind of object in persistent logic development.
3. Detached state:
  • when session is closed persistent context will be destroyed and all the objects which are in persistent state will be thrown to detached state.
  • when table row of persistent state object is deleted then object becomes detached state.
How the hibernate program is able to perform synchronization between java object and table rows?
Ans: Every POJO class object that is representing table row will contain primary key value which is one of the number variables of the object. Based up on this primary key value synchronization works.

Hibernate software uses this primary key value as a criteria to update row data using select query and object data with row by using update query.

Note: Programmer configures one or more of the member variables of POJO class as primary key field in hibernate mapping file.

What is Primary Key? What are different types of Primary key's are there?

Primary Key: Every record of a table should be identified uniquely. To do this we can configure primary key.

Single field primary key: If only one member variable of POJO class is configured as primary key field then it is called singular field configuration. To configure this we can use <id> tag in mapping file.

Composite primary key: If more than one member variable of POJO class is configured as primary key field then it is called as composite primary key. To configure this we can use <composite-id> tag in mapping file.

How synchronization will work when there is no primary key declared in database table?

If database table primary key is not specified then we can prefer unique key field to configure as a primary key in hibernate mapping file.

JNDI configuration for Tomcat 9 with Oracle

In this article, I am going to place the required source code to get data from the table by using the JNDI configuration. Below are the environment details that I have configured currently. Windows - 7 Oracle - 10g Tomcat - 9 JDK - 8 Eclipse Oxygen Ojdbc6 jar required First, we need to create the Dynamic Web Project. If you don't know how to do <Click Here>. I have faced a lot of issues before getting the output like 405, No driver class to load, etc. I am using JSP & Servlets in the current explanation. Before started writing the application logic, we need to do the below configuration in the installed tomcat directory. Place OJDBC6.jar in the Tomcat LIB directory. Add this Resource under <GlobalNamingResources> in Server.xml file which is present under the conf directory in Tomcat. < Resource name = "jdbc/myoracle" global= "jdbc/myoracle" auth = "Container" type= "javax.sql.DataSource" driverClass...

Prime, Fibonacci and Factorial number with example in java

Prime number, Fibonacci series and Factorial number programs are most commonly asked questions in interview. Read this article to know what is and how to write programs for prime number, fibonacci series and factorial number. Prime Number: prime number is natural number greater than 1 that has no positive divisor other than 1 and itself. A natural number greater than 1 is not a prime number, is called Composite number . For example, 7 is a prime number. Because it can divide with 1 and 7 only. Where as 8 is composite number. Since it has the divisor 2 and 4 in addition to the 1 and 8. The below example represents the finding the passing number is prime number or not. If the passing number is prime number it will print true otherwise it will print false. package com . javatbrains . practice ; public class PrimeNumber { public boolean isPrimeNumber ( int number ) { if ( number <= 1 ) return false ; // There's only one ...

JVM, JRE and JDK in Java

JVM, JRE and JDK are the most basic common concepts to know in java. These are the basic features to understand how Java architecture works? JVM stands for Java Virtual Machine, which doesn't have any physical directories created in java installation. JRE stands for Java Runtime Environment, which creates the directory under Java installation path and also present in JDK. JDK stands for Java Development Kit, which creates the directory in Java installation path and also it has it's own JRE. Since we have already learn that Java is platform independent means if we have implemented any of the java class in one environment, it will be executed in any other environment and provides the same output. But, JVM, JRE and JDK all are platform dependent . So that, for windows, linux, unix, mac, solaris..etc has it's own JVM, JRE and JDK. One will be not compatible with other environments. While installing the Java, we might come to know a bit about JRE and JDK. But, JVM is the other...
