| Subject | From Hibernate to straight JPA |
| Message-ID | <87egkfhodv.fsf@Equus.decebal.nl> |
We are asked to change some software. At the moment one of the things
that has to be replaced is Hibernate. They want to use straight JPA,
so it is easy to switch from Hibernate, to openJPA, to …
One of the annotations that is used is:
@NotEmpty(message = "Field is not filled")
with the import:
import org.hibernate.validator.constraints.NotEmpty;
My college wants to use:
@NotNull(message = "Field is not filled")
@Size(message = "Field is not filled", min = 1)
I do not like this. It certainly is not DRY. (It is used hundreds of
times.) I prefer to define our own NotEmpty. But I have never worked
with annotations. How to do this?
Also what is a good resource to learn about JPA and annotations?

The client where I am working at the moment did use Hibernate but they want there code to be independent from a JPA implementing library. So they can decide if they want to work with Hibernate, openJPA or another implementation and can replace it on a whim. so we should only use JPA annotations and none of an implementation. >> The best resource for JPA is the Java EE Tutorial, latest edition. > > You believe that answers the very specific question??

I've been writing Java for circa 15 years now, I've done everything from writing byte streams to firmware interfaces to high availability container managed business applications and Swing based UIs. In all this time I have relied on a JDBC driver in my classpath, container managed connection pools, hand coded SQL and 'in code' transaction management.

What is the learning overhead of just this one API It gives me a headache just scrolling down the class list. What is the actual payback for the time spent getting your head around even a fraction of this API This is not a trivial question AFAIAC I genuinely can't see the benefit, particularly in the short term of learning this stuff. There will always be another framework, I could spend my entire life learning frameworks all the time getting further and further away from the core language. I'd be genuinely interested in any non-confrontational opinions. Thanks

I'm also interested in the answers you get.
I suspect out backgrounds might be similar: I have a fairly solid
background in relational database design, and the associated skills of
normalisation, database performance tuning and writing both an RDBMS's
dialect of SQL and ODBC as well as writing database applications in Perl,
C and COBOL. So, when I've needed to implement database applications in
Java, naturally I went for JDBC.
With my background I really wonder what benefits I'd get from using a JPA
and, with an eye on performance, how does ease of performance tuning
compare between the JPA world and that of using JDBC and traditional SQL.
The uniformly worst performance I've seen has been the result of the
automatically generated SQL that 4GLs (e.g. PowerBuilder) have produced,
and the resulting dreadful performance resulting from (a) the use of
ridiculously small test databases, (b) nobody sanity-checking the auto-
generated SQL, especially w.r.t. whether it tried to use DB indexes and
(c) whether either DBA or programmers had attempted to support high
volume queries with indexes.

Benefit : less code to write and maintain. Performance: bad developer => bad performance good developer => same or almost same performance as handwritten SQL I believe that most ORM including most JPA providers allow you to log the SQL executed. Hibernate certainly does. Good developers look at that and learn how to it the right way. Arne

I would design the Java bit of whatever application I'm working on at the moment as a collection of collaborating classes, I like to call this my class model. I'd then model the interactions using UML sequence diagrams, iterating over the class model as required. Ongoing analysys of the problem specification gives me my 'use cases' which I use to test my class model. At no time in this process do I concern myself with persistance other than to note that at some time, in the future I will need to save some data somewhere. I can even do some quick and dirty throwaway prototyping to get my head around a paticularly gnarly problem using facade stubs for example. What I end up with is what some might call an 'Object Oriented' design, I just call it my class model. Knowing almost nothing about persistence frameworks I would imagine that this is the point where I might start to employ a framework to generate classes that implement the 'relationalisms' required to store an object graph (or the important data therein) in a relational database. To date I have discovered only two ways to do this 'by hand' One involves allowing relational data specific data items to creep into my nice clean class model (primary keys for example) The second is to design an OO->RDBMS 'bridge' consisting of composite classes containing references to my 'pure' OO classes and relational things like primary and foreign keys etc. Neither of these things is ideal really, in fact the whole concept of storing an object graph in a relational database will one day surely become obsolete, the two paradigms are so fundamentally different. I suppose I should really start to read about how a framewok could help me with this mapping but I'd be prepared to bet that there's some XML involved somewhere and there are so many more interesting things I could be doing Maybe this http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/11748084/Robot-passes-self-awareness-test.html Will give us a robot who can analyse the code and 'just do' the relational stuff as required on the fly. Make my life a lot easier :-) <snip>

Whwn a machine is intelligent how long before it realizes that actually it's easy to write software that is unintelligible to the puny human brain, as soon as it figures this out Pandora will be abroad and all bets are off. It's mind bending actually, there would be an exponential growth in intelligence as the software becomes continually modified to be more efficient and more intelligent. Each iteration building on the knowledge and intelligence of the previous iteration. I'll be quite honest and say that this whole nightmare scenario scares the shit out of me. I used to think 'not in my lifetime. Now I'm not so sure.
