Hibernate one to many bidirectional association not loading with Spring Data

Question

I have a bi-directional mapping as below

@Entity
@Table(name = "Stock")
public class StockEntity implements Serializable {


    private String planNum;

    private Set<StockOptionEntity> options = new HashSet<StockOptionEntity>(0);



    @OneToMany(fetch = FetchType.EAGER, mappedBy="stock")
    public Set<StockOptionEntity> getOptions() {
        return Options;
    }

    public void setOptions(Set<StockOptionEntity> Options) {
        this.Options = Options;
    }
}

Then I have another mapping as below..

@Entity
@Table(name = "StockOption")
@IdClass(StockOptionEntityPK.class)
public class StockOptionEntity implements Serializable {



    private StockEntity stock;

    @ManyToOne(cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
    @JoinColumn(name = "PlanNum", insertable = false, updatable = false)    
    public StockEntity getStock() {
        return Stock;
    }

    public void setStock(StockEntity Stock) {
        this.Stock = Stock;
    }
}

I then have the Spring Beans declared as below for Session, Entity & Transaction manager

@Bean
public DataSource msSqlDataSource() {
    SQLServerConnectionPoolDataSource dataSource = new SQLServerConnectionPoolDataSource();
    ...........
    return dataSource;

}
@Bean
@DependsOn({ "msSqlDataSource"})    
public LocalSessionFactoryBean sessionFactory() {
    LocalSessionFactoryBean sessionFactory = new LocalSessionFactoryBean();
    try {
        sessionFactory.setDataSource(msSqlDataSource());
    } catch (Exception e) {
        log.error("Failed to attach dataSource object to SessionFactory bean. "
                + "Exception: " + e.getMessage());
    }
    sessionFactory
            .setPackagesToScan("com.firstx.db.entity.*");
    sessionFactory.setHibernateProperties(hibernateProperties());

    return sessionFactory;
}
@Bean
@DependsOn({ "sessionFactory","msSqlDataSource"})
public EntityManagerFactory entityManagerFactory() {

    HibernateJpaVendorAdapter vendorAdapter = new HibernateJpaVendorAdapter();
    vendorAdapter.setGenerateDdl(true);

    LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean factory = new LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean();
    factory.setJpaVendorAdapter(vendorAdapter);
    factory.setPackagesToScan("com.firstx.db.entity.*");
    try {
        factory.setDataSource(msSqlDataSource());
    } catch (Exception e) {
        log.error("Failed to attach dataSource object to EntityManagerFactor bean. "
                + "Exception: " + e.getMessage());
    }
    factory.afterPropertiesSet();

    return factory.getObject();
}
  @Bean
   public PlatformTransactionManager transactionManager(){
      JpaTransactionManager transactionManager = new JpaTransactionManager();
      transactionManager.setEntityManagerFactory(
              entityManagerFactory() );
      return transactionManager;
   }

And then lastly, Im using Spring Data repository - repository.findOne(...) method to extract my Stock object along with StockOptions.

In this case, im not able to retrieve the collection of stock options. The collection is empty.

I tried below ways (Keeping the Spring beans as constant),

1. Converted the relation as unidrectional (by removing mappedBy and related stuff).
2. Removed the initialization of Set.
3. Removed the ID class for StockOption

Both the above options didnt work.

In the debug, I see that the StockOptions are successfully retrieved and loaded on to the session cache. But, Im not able to figure out why it isnt being actually loaded back to the parent object.

Below is the debug...

Also, I didnt enable any caching options.

As you can see above, the stockoption collection is being fetched, but isn't being plugged into the stock object.

UPDATE

The capitalized stock and option in my original posting was a find and replace mistake.. Sorry about that..

I wrote a simple class which bypasses spring data and the result is that it worked! The entity got loaded without any issue.

I think im doing something wrong with Spring data configuration (may be). But not sure.

Below is the simple (regular hibernate DAO style) that works with the same mapping:

@Repository
public class NewStock {

    @Autowired
    private SessionFactory  sessionFactory;

    public SessionFactory getSessionFactory() {
        return sessionFactory;
    }

    public void setSessionFactory(SessionFactory sessionFactory) {
        this.sessionFactory = sessionFactory;
    }

    public StockEntity retrieveStock(String planNum) {

        Session session = sessionFactory.openSession();
        session.beginTransaction();
        List<StockEntity> stockList = session
                                .createQuery("from StockEntity where planNum = '" +
                                        planNum+ "'")
                                        .list();
        session.close();


        return stockList.get(0);

    }

}

Please help in figuring out the root cause.

Answer 1

Please try change

 private StockEntity Stock;

into

private StockEntity stock;

Answer 2

You have to follow Java bean naming conventions when you declare fields and corresponding getter and setter methods.

In StockEntity.java class, the property Options should be options , it should start with small letter.

Same applies to your other entity - StockOptionEntity.java class the property Stock should be stock .

Now coming to the issue, as per logs it has below message:

1854774 [http-nio-8080-exec-10] TRACE o.h.e.loading.internal.LoadContexts - 
Collection [CollectionKey[com.firstx.db.entity.base.StockEntity.options#d97]] not 
located in load context

This message says that hibernate is not able to find a property called options inside StockEntity class. So even when hibernate got the record for StockOptionEntity as it did not find the property it just ignored it.

To fix the issue just follow the Java bean naming conventions.
