load persistence operation in hibernate

Click here to download eclipse supported ZIP file



session.load()

  • It will always return a “proxy” (Hibernate term) without hitting the database. In Hibernate, proxy is an object with the given identifier value, its properties are not initialized yet, it just look like a temporary fake object.
  • If no row found , it will throws an ObjectNotFoundException.

Hibernate create anything for some reasons, when you do the association, it’s normal to obtain retrieve an object (persistent instance) from database and assign it as a reference to another object, just to maintain the relationship. Let’s go through some examples to understand in what situation you should use session.load().

In above scenario, session.load() will be your good solution, let’s see the example,

           
    	   Address address = (Address)session.load(Address.class, new Integer(2));
           Student student = new Student();
           //set student detail
           student.setAddress(address);        
           session.save(student);

Output


Hibernate: 
    insert into cv.address_transaction (...) 
    values (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)

In session.load(), Hibernate will not hit the database (no select statement in output) to retrieve the Address object, it will return a Address proxy object – a fake object with given identify value. In this scenario, a proxy object is enough for to save a address transaction record.

Exception

In exception case, see the examples

session.load()


Address address = (Address)session.load(Address.class, new Integer(100)); //proxy

 //initialize proxy, no row for id 100, throw ObjectNotFoundException
System.out.println(address.getAddressCode());

It will always return a proxy object with the given identity value, even the identity value is not exists in database. However, when you try to initialize a proxy by retrieve it’s properties from database, it will hit the database with select statement. If no row is found, a ObjectNotFoundException will throw.


org.hibernate.ObjectNotFoundException: No row with the given identifier exists: 
[com.cv.common.Address#100]


Here is the example code to test load() operation functionality :



This is hibernate.cfg.xml file for connecting the postgreSQL database.
