Hi All

I am using Hibernate 2.

Currently I have a table which has all fields as NOT NULL in the database as well as in the Hibernate mappings. WE added a new field which is a nullable field in the database table.

When I am inserting in this table object via Hibernate
I call all the setter for all the relevant columns on the Hibernate domain object.

But what i see from the Hibernate logs is that for this specific (nullable) column its getting the value as NULL in the setter method.

I have specified not-null as false for this field in the xml mapping

I also printed out the value being passed just before the setter . it gives me the value correctly in the print statement

Do post your reply

not-null isn't necessary for input at all. Hibernate wouldn't be automatically setting any property to null. It only inserts what it has in the objects

Hi All

Yeah my understanding was the same.

But in my case somehow Hibernate is forcing the value for the specific field as null no wonder why.

I have print statements in both the getter/setter of the current Hibernate domain object in question

I can see the set is called correctly with the value
but the get method returns null.

The data type & column size , mapping name in xml, field name seems to be correct is exactly in line with what I have for other columns I am inserting & they are getting successfully inserted only this field is going as null value.


The only difference is this is nullable field & the rest are not nullable.

One more thing I added this column as add column syntax in ORacle & was not part of the initial create statement but I guess that wont be the cause of the problem in any way

Here is what the Hibernate logs look like

2006-08-18 20:29:34,976 [ExecuteThread: '10' for queue: 'default'] DEBUG net.sf.hibernate.type.LongType - binding '6' to parameter: 1

If you look the parameter 4 its binding a null value. where as like all other parameters I am setting this field in the same way.
