Welcome to Programming Peacefully!

-
I am an information technology professional from Hong Kong. In Hong Kong, it is so ridiculous that many IT professionals do not like programming. I had even heard that some analyst programmers said that they "hate" programming. Many of them will go to the area of project management and their technical skills may become outdated. 

I keep this blog just want to share some of my experience in software development and to exchange knowledge from technology lovers all over the world. If you think that my programme is written badly, please feel free to comment on it. I always want to get improvement on my technical skills :).

Apart from programming, I also love music. I like to play a musical instrument called "Ukulele". If you are interest in it, we can also share something about ukulele in this blog. :)

Adding Hibernate native SQL features into your Spring Data Repository

-
JPA provides @NamedNativeQuery for you to use native SQL. However, the usage is not so convenient, especially when you need to map multiple entities in your native SQL. You have to define a set of SqlResultSetMapping mapping which is quite error prone. For those who have used Hibernate native SQL features before, you will find that it is much more easier to use than JPA's @NamedNativeQuery. In recent projects, I am using Spring Data JPA. I have added hibernate native query features to my Spring Data base repostory. You can now perform native query in JPA without SqlResultSetMapping. 1. Add you cusomt annotation @NativeQueries and @NativeQuery @Target(ElementType.TYPE) @Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME) public @interface NativeQueries { NativeQuery[] queries() default {}; } @Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME) public @interface NativeQuery { String name() default ""; String sql() default ""; } 2. Add the method "queryNatively" in base Spri

Customizing Spring Data JPA Repository

-
Spring Data is a very convenient library. However, as the project as quite new, it is not well featured. By default, Spring Data JPA will provide implementation of the DAO based on SimpleJpaRepository. In recent project, I have developed a customize repository base class so that I could add more features on it. You could add vendor specific features to this repository base class as you like. Configuration You have to add the following configuration to you spring beans configuration file. You have to specified a new repository factory class. We will develop the class later. <jpa:repositories base-package="example.borislam.dao" factory-class="example.borislam.data.springData.DefaultRepositoryFactoryBean/> Just develop an interface extending JpaRepository. You should remember to annotate it with @NoRepositoryBean. @NoRepositoryBean public interface GenericRepository <T, ID extends Serializable> extends JpaRepository<T, ID> { } Define
