You can also express queries in the native SQL dialect of your database. This is useful if you want to utilize database-specific features such as query hints or the CONNECT keyword in Oracle. It also provides a clean migration path from a direct SQL/JDBC based application to Hibernate.
Hibernate3 allows you to specify handwritten SQL, including stored procedures, for all create, update, delete, and load operations.
To know more, click here.
For example - we can have methods in DAO for executing Native SQL as shown below.
public List executeNativeQuery(String query) {
return getSession().createSQLQuery(query).list();
}
public List executeQuery(String query) {
return getSession().createQuery(query).list();
}
You can pass native SQL query as shown below -
List allObjects = empDao.executeNativeQuery("Select emp_id, emp_name from EMPLOYEE");
Iterator it = allObjects.iterator();
while(it.hasNext())
{
Object row[] = (Object[])it.next();
for(Object eachRow : row) {
System.out.println(eachRow.toString());
}
}
Below are the known errors and exception -
