Question

Function in my DAO (findByUsername) is always returning 0 rows no matter if I change the entity class, even after removing annotation from the entity there is no exception, just 0 rows. This code is implemented in the spring based app according to some examples I have found.

DAO :

@Repository("userDao")
public class UserDao extends CustomHibernateDaoSupport {
    public void save(User user) {
        getHibernateTemplate().save(user);
    }

    public void delete(User user) {
        getHibernateTemplate().delete(user);
    }

    public User findByUsername(String username) throws DataNotFoundException {
        Session session = getSession();
        Criteria crit = session.createCriteria(User.class);
        System.out.println(username);
        crit.add(Restrictions.eq("username", username));
        crit.setMaxResults(1);

        List<User> users = crit.list();
        System.out.println(users);
        if (users.size() < 1) {
            throw new DataNotFoundException();
        }


        return users.get(0);
    }
}

ENTITY :

@Entity
@Table(name = "users")
public class User {
    private Integer id;
    private String username;
    private String password;
    private boolean active;
    private String activationCode;
    private Date createdAt;
    private String email;
    private Set<Wall> walls = new HashSet<Wall>();

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue
    @Column(name = "id", unique = true, nullable = false)
    public Integer getId() {
        return id;
    }

    public void setId(Integer id) {
        this.id = id;
    }

    @Column(name = "username", unique = true, nullable = false)
    public String getUsername() {
        return username;
    }

    public void setUsername(String username) {
        this.username = username;
    }

    @Column(name = "password")
    public String getPassword() {
        return password;
    }

    public void setPassword(String password) {
        this.password = password;
    }

    @Column(name = "active")
    public boolean isActive() {
        return active;
    }

    public void setActive(boolean active) {
        this.active = active;
    }

    @Column(name = "activation_code")
    public String getActivationCode() {
        return activationCode;
    }

    public void setActivationCode(String activationCode) {
        this.activationCode = activationCode;
    }

    @Column(name = "created_at", columnDefinition = "DATETIME")
    public Date getCreatedAt() {
        return createdAt;
    }

    public void setCreatedAt(Date createdAt) {
        this.createdAt = createdAt;
    }

    @Column(name = "email")
    public String getEmail() {
        return email;
    }

    public void setEmail(String email) {
        this.email = email;
    }

    @ManyToMany(fetch = FetchType.LAZY, cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
    @JoinTable(name = "users_has_walls", joinColumns = { 
            @JoinColumn(name = "user_id", nullable = false, updatable = false) }, 
            inverseJoinColumns = { @JoinColumn(name = "wall_id", 
                    nullable = false, updatable = false) })
    public Set<Wall> getWalls() {
        return walls;
    }

    public void setWalls(Set<Wall> walls) {
        this.walls = walls;
    }
}

The solution was to change import declaration to

import javax.persistence.Entity;

instead of hibernate. User entity class was not imported.
