Hi,

I want to check if some entities property has already been loaded (= is not lazy anymore). I tried Hibernate.isInitialized(proxy) but it seems while there is an active session attached the method returns true everytime. When I invoke this method when session is closed the method returns false (= estimated behavior).

Is there another way how I can check if a property has already been loaded while session is still active?

TIA byto

That's what the method you're using is for. Are you saying it returns true and the proxy is *not* initialized? If so, provide all the info requested (version, mappings, code, errors, etc) on the forum and someone may have a look.

Let me try to explain it a bit better:

e.g. there is an entity A with a (lazy) one-to-many relation to entity B. Now I load the A entities by HQL query "from A". Hibernate selects the data from the database without fetching the B entities. When I now use Hibernate.isInitialized() on some A.B proxy, the method returns true although B has not yet been loaded.

Im looking for a way to check if A.B has already been loaded from the database, even if the collection still is attached to a hibernate session. Hibernate.isInitialized() returns false when the property has not been loaded and the entity is detached. But it returns true if the collection is still attached but the property has not yet been loaded.
