Introduction
Hibernate is designed to be used with a large set of databases. The details of those databases are configured in an XML file called hibernate.cfg.xml. This configuration files could be given any name and is usually placed in the root of your application class path. There are many configuration parameters available that makes the mapping of domain model to relational model easier. The same configurations can be done from your Java class uning org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration class. If you are beginner in Hibernate, please read our article on Introduction to Hibernate ORM FrameworkSample Application
The sample we discuss here shows how an Employee object can be configured to store in both Oracle Data base and Derby Database. Here we create a POJO class called Employee and store and retrieve its objects from both Oracle and Derby database.Software Requirements
For this example I have used the following tools.- NetBeans IDE ( may use Eclipse also)
- Hibernate 3.0
- Oracle 9i , Derby
Sample Project Structure
Employee.java
package hibernatepack.samples;
public class Employee {
private int empid;
private String empname;
private double salary;
public int getEmpid() {
return empid;
}
public void setEmpid(int empid) {
this.empid = empid;
}
public String getEmpname() {
return empname;
}
public void setEmpname(String empname) {
this.empname = empname;
}
public double getSalary() {
return salary;
}
public void setSalary(double salary) {
this.salary = salary;
}
}
The mapping details of the Employee class are available in the Employee.hbm.xml file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

package hibernatepack.samples;
import java.util.List;
public interface IEmployeeDAO {
public void findAllEmployees();
public void insertEmployee(Employee e);
}EmloyeeDaoImpl.java
public class EmployeeDaoImpl implements IEmployeeDAO {
SessionFactory sessionFactory1 = new Configuration().configure("oracleconfig.cfg.xml").buildSessionFactory();
SessionFactory sessionFactory2 = new Configuration().configure("derbyconfig.cfg.xml").buildSessionFactory();
Session session = null;
Transaction transaction = null;
public void findAllEmployees() {
ArrayList empList = new ArrayList();
try {
session = sessionFactory1.openSession();
transaction = session.beginTransaction();
transaction.begin();
Criteria crit = session.createCriteria(Employee.class);
empList = (ArrayList) crit.list();
System.out.println("Records from Oracle Database");

} catch (Exception he) {
he.printStackTrace();

}
public void insertEmployee(Employee e) {
try {

transaction.begin();
session.save(e);
transaction.commit();
session.close();
} catch (HibernateException he) {
he.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
Creating Session Factory object in Hibernate
Each database has its own SessionFactory object.
SessionFactory sessionFactory1 = new Configuration().configure("oracleconfig.cfg.xml").buildSessionFactory();
SessionFactory sessionFactory2 = new Configuration().configure("derbyconfig.cfg.xml").buildSessionFactory();
package hibernatepack.samples;
import java.awt.Choice;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class EmployeeTest {
private static int choice;
public static void main(String[] args) {
EmployeeDaoImpl empOperations = new EmployeeDaoImpl();
Employee e1 = new Employee();
do {
System.out.println("1. Insert ");
System.out.println("2. List ");
System.out.println("3. Exit ");
System.out.println("Enter your choice ");
Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
choice = sc.nextInt();
switch (choice) {
case 1:
System.out.println("Enter the employee Number ");
Scanner sc1 = new Scanner(System.in);
int empid = sc1.nextInt();
System.out.println("Enter the employee Name ");
Scanner sc2 = new Scanner(System.in);
String empname = sc2.nextLine();
System.out.println("Enter the Salary ");
Scanner sc3 = new Scanner(System.in);
double empsal = sc3.nextDouble();
e1.setEmpid(empid);
e1.setEmpname(empname);
e1.setSalary(empsal);
empOperations.insertEmployee(e1);
break;
case 2:
empOperations.findAllEmployees();
break;
}
} while (choice != 3);
}
}
Conclusion
This is very simple example on how to configure the multiple databases using Hibernate configuration files. In the next weeks I will be writing few more examples on configuring the databases and fetching the data. In the following section you can find the interesting articles related to Hibernate framework.
