Interface Session

All Superinterfaces:
Serializable
All Known Subinterfaces:
EventSource, Session
All Known Implementing Classes:
SessionImpl
public interface Session
extends Serializable

The main runtime interface between a Java application and Hibernate. This is the central API class abstracting the notion of a persistence service.

The lifecycle of a Session is bounded by the beginning and end of a logical transaction. (Long transactions might span several database transactions.)

The main function of the Session is to offer create, read and delete operations for instances of mapped entity classes. Instances may exist in one of three states:

transient: never persistent, not associated with any Session
persistent: associated with a unique Session
detached: previously persistent, not associated with any Session

Transient instances may be made persistent by calling save(), persist() or saveOrUpdate(). Persistent instances may be made transient by calling delete(). Any instance returned by a get() or load() method is persistent. Detached instances may be made persistent by calling update(), saveOrUpdate(), lock() or replicate(). The state of a transient or detached instance may also be made persistent as a new persistent instance by calling merge().

save() and persist() result in an SQL INSERT, delete() in an SQL DELETE and update() or merge() in an SQL UPDATE. Changes to persistent instances are detected at flush time and also result in an SQL UPDATE. saveOrUpdate() and replicate() result in either an INSERT or an UPDATE.

It is not intended that implementors be threadsafe. Instead each thread/transaction should obtain its own instance from a SessionFactory.

A Session instance is serializable if its persistent classes are serializable.

A typical transaction should use the following idiom: 

 Session sess = factory.openSession();
 Transaction tx;
 try {
     tx = sess.beginTransaction();
     //do some work
     ...
     tx.commit();
 }
 catch (Exception e) {
     if (tx!=null) tx.rollback();
     throw e;
 }
 finally {
     sess.close();
 }

If the Session throws an exception, the transaction must be rolled back and the session discarded. The internal state of the Session might not be consistent with the database after the exception occurs.

Method Detail

getEntityMode

public EntityMode getEntityMode()
Retrieve the entity mode in effect for this session.

Returns:
The entity mode for this session.

getSession

public Session getSession(EntityMode entityMode)
Starts a new Session with the given entity mode in effect. This secondary Session inherits the connection, transaction, and other context information from the primary Session. It doesn't need to be flushed or closed by the developer.

Parameters:
entityMode - The entity mode to use for the new session.
Returns:
The new session

flush

public void flush()
           throws HibernateException
Force this session to flush. Must be called at the end of a unit of work, before commiting the transaction and closing the session (depending on flush-mode, Transaction.commit() calls this method).

Flushing is the process of synchronizing the underlying persistent store with persistable state held in memory.

Throws:
HibernateException - Indicates problems flushing the session or talking to the database.

setFlushMode

public void setFlushMode(FlushMode flushMode)
Set the flush mode for this session.

The flush mode determines the points at which the session is flushed. Flushing is the process of synchronizing the underlying persistent store with persistable state held in memory.

For a logically "read only" session, it is reasonable to set the session's flush mode to FlushMode.MANUAL at the start of the session (in order to achieve some extra performance).

Parameters:
flushMode - the new flush mode
See Also:
FlushMode

getFlushMode

public FlushMode getFlushMode()
Get the current flush mode for this session.

Returns:
The flush mode

setCacheMode

public void setCacheMode(CacheMode cacheMode)
Set the cache mode.

Cache mode determines the manner in which this session can interact with the second level cache.

Parameters:
cacheMode - The new cache mode.

getCacheMode

public CacheMode getCacheMode()
Get the current cache mode.

Returns:
The current cache mode.

getSessionFactory

public SessionFactory getSessionFactory()
Get the session factory which created this session.

Returns:
The session factory.
See Also:
SessionFactory

connection

public Connection connection()
                      throws HibernateException
Deprecated. To be replaced with a SPI for performing work against the connection; scheduled for removal in 4.x

Get the JDBC connection of this Session.

If the session is using aggressive collection release (as in a CMT environment), it is the application's responsibility to close the connection returned by this call. Otherwise, the application should not close the connection.

Returns:
the JDBC connection in use by the Session
Throws:
HibernateException - if the Session is disconnected

close

public Connection close()
                 throws HibernateException
End the session by releasing the JDBC connection and cleaning up. It is not strictly necessary to close the session but you must at least disconnect() it.

Returns:
the connection provided by the application or null.
Throws:
HibernateException - Indicates problems cleaning up.

cancelQuery

public void cancelQuery()
                 throws HibernateException
Cancel the execution of the current query.

This is the sole method on session which may be safely called from another thread.

Throws:
HibernateException - There was a problem canceling the query

isOpen

public boolean isOpen()
Check if the session is still open.

Returns:
boolean

isConnected

public boolean isConnected()
Check if the session is currently connected.

Returns:
boolean

isDirty

public boolean isDirty()
                throws HibernateException
Does this session contain any changes which must be synchronized with the database? In other words, would any DML operations be executed if we flushed this session?

Returns:
True if the session contains pending changes; false otherwise.
Throws:
HibernateException - could not perform dirtying checking

getIdentifier

public Serializable getIdentifier(Object object)
                           throws HibernateException
Return the identifier value of the given entity as associated with this session. An exception is thrown if the given entity instance is transient or detached in relation to this session.

Parameters:
object - a persistent instance
Returns:
the identifier
Throws:
TransientObjectException - if the instance is transient or associated with a different session
HibernateException

contains

public boolean contains(Object object)
Check if this instance is associated with this Session.

Parameters:
object - an instance of a persistent class
Returns:
true if the given instance is associated with this Session

evict

public void evict(Object object)
           throws HibernateException
Remove this instance from the session cache. Changes to the instance will not be synchronized with the database. This operation cascades to associated instances if the association is mapped with cascade="evict".

disconnect

public Connection disconnect()
                      throws HibernateException
Disconnect the Session from the current JDBC connection. If the connection was obtained by Hibernate close it and return it to the connection pool; otherwise, return it to the application.

This is used by applications which supply JDBC connections to Hibernate and which require long-sessions (or long-conversations)

Note that disconnect() called on a session where the connection was retrieved by Hibernate through its configured ConnectionProvider has no effect, provided ConnectionReleaseMode.ON_CLOSE is not in effect.

Returns:
the application-supplied connection or null
Throws:
HibernateException
See Also:
reconnect(Connection), reconnect()

reconnect

public void reconnect()
               throws HibernateException
Deprecated. Manual reconnection is only needed in the case of application-supplied connections, in which case the reconnect(java.sql.Connection) for should be used.

Obtain a new JDBC connection. This is used by applications which require long transactions and do not supply connections to the session.

Throws:
HibernateException
See Also:
disconnect()

reconnect

public void reconnect(Connection connection)
               throws HibernateException
Reconnect to the given JDBC connection. This is used by applications which require long transactions and use application-supplied connections.
