Overview of this book

This book will provide a useful hands-on guide to Hibernate to accomplish the development of a real-time Hibernate application. We will start with the basics of Hibernate, which include setting up Hibernate – the pre-requisites and multiple ways of configuring Hibernate using Java. We will then dive deep into the fundamentals of Hibernate such as SessionFactory, session, criteria, working with objects and criteria. This will help a developer have a better understanding of how Hibernate works and what needs to be done to run a Hibernate application. Moving on, we will learn how to work with annotations, associations and collections. In the final chapters, we will see explore querying, advanced Hibernate concepts and integration with other frameworks.

One-to-one mapping using a common primary key


In this method, we will create a relationship in such a way that both tables contain the same primary key value for the related record. So, we can say that here we used unidirectional as well as bidirectional relationships, because we can get either record through another record using its primary key. For example, if Person is inserted with id 1, you should get the PassportDetail record inserted with id 1 as well.

Getting ready

Here, we will create Person and PassportDetail classes to work this demo.

Creating the tables

Use the following script to create the tables if you are not using hbm2dll=create|update:

Use the following script to create the passport_detail table:

CREATE TABLE `passport_detail` (
  `id` bigint(20) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `passportno` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
);

Use the following script to create the person table:

CREATE TABLE `person` (
  `id` bigint(20) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `name` varchar(255) DEFAULT...
