You probably don't need to write code for that, try setting specific permissions for the table in your database instead. In Oracle, you could grant SELECT permission to an user in a certain table, while denying INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE permissions. If you really want to enforce that restriction programmatically, try to do so in your DAO's by allowing only read operations. Cheers,

If you want to make that entity immutable try something like

<hibernate-mapping>
<class name="ABC" mutable="false">

...
</class>

</hibernate-mapping>

In this way the values of this entity will not be changed and hence the table will not be update-able.

In Hibernate reference doc it is mentioned that
Immutable classes, mutable="false", may not be updated or deleted by the application. This allows Hibernate to make some minor performance optimizations.

so ,how can I restrict insertions on this table?

For This you can use caching. There are fewing caching modes given for special purposes like
to insert : session.setCacheMode(CacheMode.PUT)
to update : GET
to read from database : REFRESH
may be.... This will be helpful for you.
