Today, we published a new maintenance release of Hibernate ORM 6.1: 6.1.2.Final.
What’s new
This release introduces a few minor improvements as well as bug fixes.
@Any mapping and HQL function type(…)
It is now possible to use the HQL function type(…)
to access the type of a polymorphic association.
E.g.
@Entity
public class PropertyHolder {
@Any
@AnyDiscriminator(DiscriminatorType.STRING)
@AnyDiscriminatorValue(discriminator = "S", entity = StringProperty.class)
@AnyDiscriminatorValue(discriminator = "I", entity = IntegerProperty.class)
@AnyKeyJavaClass(Integer.class)
@Column(name = "property_type")
@JoinColumn(name = "property_id")
private Property property;
...
}
public interface Property {
...
}
@Entity
public class IntegerProperty implements Property {
...
}
we can select the PropertyHolders
having a property of type IntegerProperty
List<PropertyHolder> propertyHolders = session.createQuery(
"select p from PropertyHolder p where type(p.property) = IntegerProperty ",
PropertyHolder.class ).list();
