Is there a way to get the created Id back when an entity is saved using session.save() and using native id generation?

Something like having id as a return value for session.save() for newly created records.

Here is the code snippet and the hbm.xml file

try
{
Session session = sessionFactory.openSession();
Transaction tx = session.beginTransaction();

session.save(order);

tx.commit();
session.close();
}
catch (HibernateException e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}

<id name="id">
<column name="ID" not-null="true"/>
<generator class="native"/>
</id>

Hibernate version: -2.1

Thanks in advance for your help.

Please man, at least read the API. Session.save() returns the generated Id

Hi,

If the type of your generated id is Integer,then

Integer id=(Integer)session.save(entity);

else if it is String then

String id=(String)session.save(entity);

and etc.

Although this way gets id back is not pretty,but we really can't get the id back in other ways.
