I have a named query that runs a stored procedure...

<sql-query name="defaultQuickLinks" callable="true">
<return alias="defaultQuickLinks" entity-name="Links">
</return>
{call BUP_APP_GetDefaultQuicklinks(:a, :b, :c)}
</sql-query>


The procedure returns a resultset

my question is can i map this to an object in hibernate that does not have a database table.

the data from the stored proc is from different sources, so im not clear on how to map it to an entity/class

is is possible to create a mapping in hibernate to an object that has no db table???

thanks

Yes - you can use that named query that you've already defined. See here in the docs for details.

Hope that helps.
Cheers,
Rich.
