Hello,

I have a collection of objects that I need to persist. Each object may be in a different state - ie .some new, some updated and need to be persisted and some that need to be deleted.

This collection is not part of another object. Is there a recommended way to do this in Hibernate? I can add my own way to maintain state, but it seems as though hibernate has this capability and I would like some guidance on the best way.

thanks

Hi suneetshah,

Best way to do is use child parent association. and collection of object should be in child and use cascade="all" .And for persist these use session.saveOrUpdate(parent). This would automatically save or update according to given ID and unsaved value.

If you don’t have these association then it is tuff fight. You need to persist one by one with session.saveOrUpdate (ID logic would be same).Otherwise you could go for hibenateTemplate but again it is not recommended.


Note Hibernate works excellent when object modeling is perfect

Hi dharmendra,

The challenge here is that I dont have a parent-child association. Its a collection of simple objects.

Thanks

Go for second one
