Hi All,

I was wondering if there is a way to dynamically determine if an object should be lazy loaded at run time? So basically I have an entity relation ship such as :

A Contains B

A Contains C

So depending on the business logic I am executing sometimes I want to eager load B and lazy load C and sometimes lazy load B and eager load C.

My apologies in advance if this has been addressed before , but I could not find anything that addresses this concern.

I really need an answer on this.

Can someone please point me to the right direction?

Define both associations as lazy. Then use HQL to load A and fetch join B or C when you want to load eagerly. For example:



More information is in the Hibernate documentation: http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/stable/ ... yhql-joins

Thanks for the pointer, I will try to build that into my code.
