Changes to 4.3.6.Final were mainly bugfixes with some performance improvements. A new Hibernate module was added to provide support for HikariCP connection pool (HHH-8869).
The following bugfixes applied only to 4.3.6.Final:
- HHH-8818 fixed a regression introduced in 4.3.0.Final causing Hibernate to not be able to find the JNDI DataSource.
- HHH-4700 fixed a bug using an HQL CASE expression containing a parameter in the THEN clause, and HHH-6747 fixed a bug rendering a SimpleCase using CriteriaBuilder.selectCase( arg ). Both caused ClassCastException to be thrown.
- HHH-8885 fixed a bug causing a NullPointerException when MapJoin.key() is used.
- HHH-8980 fixed a bug where an entity was not found if a joined subclass had a non-nullable many-to-one or one-to-one association.
The following bugfixes applied to both 4.3.6.Final and 4.2.15.Final:
- HHH-9280 - caused the table name computed for an @ElementCollection to use the entity class name instead of the specified entity name.
- HHH-8310 caused class loading problems due to a Spring bug that changed the context classloader to one that could not locate Hibernate Lob proxy classes (BlobProxy, ClobProxy, NClobProxy, SerializableBlobProxy, SerializableClobProxy).
- HHH-9106 (for 4.3.6.Final) and HHH-9261 (for 4.2.15.Final) optionally allows multiple representations of the same entity to be merged (e.g., loaded from different sessions).
