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.

how to count the page views by using JSP

To count no.of page's are viewed by user in your application is a challenge in real time application. In this page we will see how to count the page views when user has viewed the page.           Here, we will do one example how many times user has visited each page in our application. In this post we will come to know, how to count the total application page views as well as individually each pages count.           Let us assume my web application name is "Page Counter". For creating the web application in eclipse IDE, Click here . This Page Counter contains three pages, assume that are the different pages in an application. But, there is the link between each other files for navigating from one page to another. Also it will show the total pages view count and individual page view count in all the pages. Let us see, below is my first jsp file,           You can declare the below content inside the < body > tag. Rest of the content in every page will b

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/transaction/SystemException

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/transaction/SystemException error we got in Hibernate 4.3 to work with my MySQL database. We are using hibernate code generation tool in Eclipse and we are able to connect to the database using the Hibernate configuration file. When we try to run code in my Main class application is connecting to the database, but transaction is failing and we got the following error: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 Exception in thread "main" java . lang .

Multithreading in java with example

Multithreading  is one of the most important concept in core java. In this article we will learn what is multithreading? , what is the use of it? and What is the use of Synchronization and when to use it?  with detailed examples. At a time, two or more threads are accessing the same object is called as Multithreading  in Java .  First, we will create two threads for two objects. It is also possible to run two or more threads on a single class object. In this case, there is a possibility to get unreliable results. If the two threads are perform same task, then they need same object to be executed each time. For your better understanding, take an example of any reservations like, railway, movie ticket booking,etc. Let us think only one berth is available in a train and two passengers are asking for that berth. The first person has sent a request to allocate that ticket/berth to him. At the same time, the second person also sent a request to allocate that ticket/berth to him
