Hibernate Notes

Hibernate is an Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) framework for Java that simplifies database interactions by mapping Java objects to relational database tables. The architecture consists of components like Configuration, SessionFactory, Session, and Transaction, facilitating CRUD operations and queries. Setting up Hibernate involves downloading the framework, configuring the environment, and defining mapping files for Java classes and database tables.

Hibernate Notes

2a. Illustrate Architecture of Hibernate

2.1 Introduction to Hibernate

- Hibernate is an Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) framework for Java.

- It maps Java objects to relational database tables.

- Simplifies database interactions using objects instead of SQL.

2.1 Exploring the Hibernate Architecture

Hibernate Architecture Components:

1. Configuration: Loads configuration from hibernate.cfg.xml or hibernate.properties.

2. SessionFactory: A factory for Session objects.

3. Session: Single-threaded object for CRUD operations.

4. Transaction: Manages atomic units of work.

5. Query: Interface for HQL (Hibernate Query Language).

6. Criteria: Used for object-oriented queries.

7. Persistent Objects: Java objects mapped to database tables.

Architecture Flow:

Java App -> Hibernate Core (Session, Query, etc.) -> JDBC -> Database

2b. Setting Up Environment for Hibernate

2.2 Downloading, Installing and Setting up Environment

- Prerequisites: JDK, Eclipse/IntelliJ, MySQL.


- Download Hibernate from https://hibernate.org/orm/

- Add Hibernate JARs to build path or use Maven:

Maven Dependency:

<dependency>

<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>

<artifactId>hibernate-core</artifactId>

<version>5.6.15.Final</version>

</dependency>

2.2 Exploring HQL (Hibernate Query Language)

- HQL is object-oriented and operates on Java objects.

Example:

Query query = session.createQuery("from Employee");

List<Employee> list = query.list();

2c. Implementing O/R Mapping in Hibernate

2.3 Understanding O/R Mapping in Hibernate

- ORM maps Java classes to tables and Java data types to SQL types.

- Benefits: less code, abstraction of JDBC, consistency.

2.3 Working with Hibernate O/R Mapping

1. Hibernate Configuration File (hibernate.cfg.xml)

Defines DB connection and mappings.

Example:
<hibernate-configuration>

<session-factory>

<property name="hibernate.dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect</property>

<property name="hibernate.connection.driver_class">com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver</property>

<property name="hibernate.connection.url">jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/mydb</property>

<property name="hibernate.connection.username">root</property>

<property name="hibernate.connection.password">password</property>

<mapping resource="Employee.hbm.xml"/>

</session-factory>

</hibernate-configuration>

2. Hibernate Mapping File (Employee.hbm.xml)

<hibernate-mapping>

<class name="com.example.Employee" table="employee">

<id name="id" column="id"><generator class="increment"/></id>

<property name="name" column="name"/>

<property name="department" column="department"/>

</class>

</hibernate-mapping>

3. Java Bean (POJO)

public class Employee {

private int id;

private String name;

private String department;

// Getters and Setters

}
Typical Flow:

1. Create POJO.

2. Create mapping file.

3. Create config file.

4. Use SessionFactory and Session.

5. Perform DB operations.
