Hibernate 5 Java双向oneToMany字段为空，但表包含数据

Question

I have two entities Department and Employee. Department has a list of Employees. And Employee has a field Department. I can create Employees and add them to to list inside Department. The Database Tables are filled as expected on persist. If I query for a Department I get the Department and the List of Employees is filled. Everything fine this way. If I query for an Employee and get the Department field it Returns null.

@Entity
@Table(name = "DEPARTMENT")
public class Department {

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    @Column(name = "DPT_ID")
    private long id;

    @Column(name = "NAME", nullable = false, unique = true)
    private String name;


    @OneToMany(cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
    @JoinColumn(name = "DEPARTMENT") //we need to duplicate the physical information
    private List<Employee> employees = new ArrayList<>();

    @Column(name = "NAME", nullable = false)
    private String name;

    @Column(name = "DESIGNATION")
    private String designation;

    @ManyToOne
    @JoinColumn(name = "DEPARTMENT", insertable = false, updatable = false)
    private Department department;

The query where employee.getDepartment() return null

        session = HibernateUtil.getSessionFactory().openSession();
        transaction = session.getTransaction();
        transaction.begin();

        Department department = new Department();
        department.setName("IT Department");

        Employee employee1 = new Employee();
        employee1.setName("Adam");
        employee1.setDesignation("Manager");

        Employee employee2 = new Employee();
        employee2.setName("Miller");
        employee2.setDesignation("Software Engineer");

        Employee employee3 = new Employee();
        employee3.setName("Smith");
        employee3.setDesignation("Associate  Engineer");

        department.getEmployees().add(employee1);
        department.getEmployees().add(employee2);
        department.getEmployees().add(employee3);

        session.persist(department);
        session.flush();
        transaction.commit();


        transaction = session.getTransaction();
        transaction.begin();

        {
            CriteriaBuilder builder = session.getCriteriaBuilder();
            CriteriaQuery<Employee> query = builder.createQuery(Employee.class);
            Root<Employee> root = query.from(Employee.class);
            query.select(root);
            Query<Employee> q = session.createQuery(query);
            List<Employee> employees = q.getResultList();
            for (Employee employee : employees) {
                System.out.println("EMPLOYEE NAME: " + employee.getName());
                System.out.println("DEPARTMENT NAME: " + employee.getDepartment()); // gives null
            }
        }
        {
            CriteriaBuilder builder = session.getCriteriaBuilder();
            CriteriaQuery<Department> query = builder.createQuery(Department.class);
            Root<Department> root = query.from(Department.class);
            query.select(root);
            Query<Department> q = session.createQuery(query);
            List<Department> departments = q.getResultList();
            for (Department deps : departments) {
                System.out.println(deps.getName());
                System.out.println(deps.getEmployees()); // list of employees is filled
            }
        }

The tables seem to be filled correctly. But if i use getDepartment on a queried Employee i get null. If i use getEmployees on a queried Department i get all the Employees.

I tried both ways described here : https://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/orm/4.1/manual/en-US/html/ch07.html#collections-bidirectional

Example 7.21. Bidirectional one to many with many to one side as association owner

and

Example 7.22. Bidirectional association with one to many side as owner

Same result for me.

What am i missing?

Answer 1

Looks like a Owning entity issue, so I think your test is persisting data in two different ways. In your annotation @OneToMany(cascade = CascadeType.ALL) you have declared Department to be the owner of the relationship. So, if you persist data with

dept.getEmployees().add(emp);

then the department (id) field will be updated

Hibernate: insert into EMPLOYEE (EMP_ID, DESIGNATION, NAME) values (null, ?, ?)
Hibernate: update EMPLOYEE set DEPARTMENT=? where EMP_ID=?

but if you persist with

emp.setDepartment(dept);

then the department(id) field of employee won't get updated.

Hibernate: insert into EMPLOYEE (EMP_ID, DESIGNATION, NAME) values (null, ?, ?)

If the department id of employee isn't persisted then you can't retrieve the department. It's more efficient if you make Employee the owner of the relationship since it has the foreign key.

@OneToMany(cascade = CascadeType.ALL, mappedBy="department")
private List<Employee> employees; // don't need to make a list, only for fetches
// and 
@ManyToOne
@JoinColumn(name = "DEPARTMENT")
private Department department;

and set the department of the employee when persisting relations. Then the insert is done with the departmentid and not updated separately.

Hibernate: insert into EMPLOYEE (EMP_ID, DEPARTMENT, DESIGNATION, NAME) values (null, ?, ?, ?)

There is nothing expressly wrong with the criteria code as JPA will follow the annotated relationship but it does so in two separate queries since you don't have a specific join.

Hibernate: select employee0_.EMP_ID as EMP_ID1_1_, employee0_.DEPARTMENT as DEPARTME4_1_, employee0_.DESIGNATION as DESIGNAT2_1_, employee0_.NAME as NAME3_1_ from EMPLOYEE employee0_
Hibernate: select department0_.DPT_ID as DPT_ID1_0_0_, department0_.NAME as NAME2_0_0_ from DEPARTMENT department0_ where department0_.DPT_ID=?

If you add a specific Fetch then it will do it in a single SQL statement.

root.fetch("department");

and

Hibernate: select employee0_.EMP_ID as EMP_ID1_1_0_, department1_.DPT_ID as DPT_ID1_0_1_, employee0_.DEPARTMENT as DEPARTME4_1_0_, employee0_.DESIGNATION as DESIGNAT2_1_0_, employee0_.NAME as NAME3_1_0_, department1_.NAME as NAME2_0_1_ from EMPLOYEE employee0_ inner join DEPARTMENT department1_ on employee0_.DEPARTMENT=department1_.DPT_ID

Answer 2

In my opinion, your relational mapping is incorrect! Try to change code like this.

@ManyToOne
@JoinColumn(name = "DEPT_ID")
private Department department;


@OneToMany(mappedBy = "department",cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
private List<Employee> employees = new ArrayList<>();

Answer 3

try it with following code , just point the join table to Department from Employee.

@ManyToOne
@JoinColumn(name = "DPT_ID", insertable = false, updatable = false)
private Department department;

Answer 4

I found the Problem. I used the same session for persiting and querying.

session = HibernateUtil.getSessionFactory().openSession();
transaction = session.getTransaction();
transaction.begin();
…
session.persist(stuff);
session.flush();
transaction.commit();

transaction = session.getTransaction();
transaction.begin();

query stuff

If i close the session after persist and open a new session everything is working fine.

I added a fixed version of the test project to my question just i case someone is iterested.
