I want to take Nested object values in Hibernate Projection List. I having Pojo 'Charge' and 'Tariff' class with OneToMany and ManyToOne relations.
My sample code is as following:
Charge
private String id;
private Tariff tariff;
private String name;
@OneToMany(cascade= {CascadeType.ALL},fetch=FetchType.EAGER,mappedBy="charge")
public Tariff getTariff() {
return tariff;
}
public void setTariff(Tariff tariff) {
this.tariff = tariff;
}
Tariff
private String id;
private String amount;
private Charge charge;
@ManyToOne(cascade={CascadeType.PERSIST},fetch=FetchType.EAGER)
@JoinColumn(name="charge_id")
public Charge getCharge() {
return charge;
}
public void setCharge(Charge charge) {
this.charge = charge;
}
I want to take amount value from tariff by charge model.
I write sql criteria that works ie.
SELECT tariff.amount,charge.name FROM charge,tariff WHERE charge.name LIKE 's%';
and i tried with following criteria.
Criteria cr = getSession().createCriteria(Charge.class,"charge")
.createAlias("charge.tariff","tariff")
.setProjection(Projections.projectionList()
.add(Projections.property("chargeName"),"chargeName")
.add(Projections.property("id"),"id")
.add(Projections.property("tariff.amount"),"amount"))
.add(Restrictions.like("chargeName", name+"%"))
.setResultTransformer(Transformers.aliasToBean(Charge.class));
return cr.list();
I just check with restclient it returns null Value. How to write for Criteria for this sql Query ?
I've experienced this kind of requirement. I tried to get nested objects as nested objects using Transformers.aliasToBean
, which will not work. By default, Transformers.aliasToBean
don't have the capability to select nested object as nested object.
You can take a look at my question
Using Projecions to fetch a particular column from child table
To get Nested object as nested object, you need a Custom Transformer which is capable of doing that.
Here's a Custom Transformer written by samiandoni
https://github.com/samiandoni/AliasToBeanNestedResultTransformer
From the provided Readme in that link
class Person {
private Long id;
private String name;
private Car car;
// getters and setters
}
class Car {
private Long id;
private String color;
// getters and setters
}
List<Person> getPeople() {
ProjectionList projections = Projections.projectionList()
.add(Projections.id().as("id"))
.add(Projections.property("name").as("name"))
.add(Projections.property("c.id").as("car.id"))
.add(Projections.property("c.color").as("car.color"));
Criteria criteria = getCurrentSession().createCriteria(Person.class)
.createAlias("car", "c")
.setProjection(projections)
.setResultTransformer(new AliasToBeanNestedResultTransformer(Person.class));
return (List<Person>) criteria.list();
}
// each car of Person will be populated
The above transformer is capable of Fetching first level Nested object as Nested object and it doesn't support further deep nested objects. So after some digging I've found another Custom transformer which is capable of Fetching deep Nested objects as Nested objects

Just replace samiandoni's Transformer with the above transformer. It's capable of fetching further deep Nested Objects as respective Objects.
