A
value object is an object, which don’t have any identity independently. Let’s
say there is an Employee object and Address object. Address object alone don’t
have any meaning. Address object has meaning, when it used in combination with
Employee object.
package myFirstHibernate; import javax.persistence.Embeddable; @Embeddable public class Address { private String street; private String city; private String state; private String PIN; private String country; public String getStreet() { return street; } public void setStreet(String street) { this.street = street; } public String getCity() { return city; } public void setCity(String city) { this.city = city; } public String getState() { return state; } public void setState(String state) { this.state = state; } public String getPIN() { return PIN; } public void setPIN(String pIN) { PIN = pIN; } public String getCountry() { return country; } public void setCountry(String country) { this.country = country; } }
package myFirstHibernate; import javax.persistence.Entity; import javax.persistence.GeneratedValue; import javax.persistence.GenerationType; import javax.persistence.Id; import javax.persistence.Lob; import java.util.Date; @Entity public class Employee { @Id private int id; private String firstName; private String lastName; private Address address; public int getId() { return id; } public void setId(int id) { this.id = id; } public String getFirstName() { return firstName; } public void setFirstName(String firstName) { this.firstName = firstName; } public String getLastName() { return lastName; } public void setLastName(String lastName) { this.lastName = lastName; } public Address getAddress() { return address; } public void setAddress(Address address) { this.address = address; } }

TestEmployee.java
package myFirstHibernate; import org.hibernate.Session; import org.hibernate.SessionFactory; import org.hibernate.boot.registry.StandardServiceRegistryBuilder; import org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration; import java.util.Date; public class TestEmployee { /* Step 1: Create session factory */ private static SessionFactory getSessionFactory() { Configuration configuration = new Configuration().configure(); StandardServiceRegistryBuilder builder = new StandardServiceRegistryBuilder(). applySettings(configuration.getProperties()); SessionFactory factory = configuration.buildSessionFactory(builder.build()); return factory; } public static void main(String args[]){ Employee emp1 = new Employee(); emp1.setId(1); emp1.setFirstName("Hari Krishna"); emp1.setLastName("Gurram"); Address addr = new Address(); addr.setCity("Bangalore"); addr.setCountry("India"); addr.setPIN("560037"); addr.setState("Karnataka"); addr.setStreet("Chowdeswari street"); emp1.setAddress(addr); /* To persisit data */ SessionFactory sessionFactory = getSessionFactory(); Session session = sessionFactory.openSession(); session.beginTransaction(); session.save(emp1); session.getTransaction().commit(); session.close(); } }
Run
TestEmployee.java, you will get output like below.
Hibernate: drop table if exists Employee Hibernate: create table Employee (id integer not null, PIN varchar(255), city varchar(255), country varchar(255), state varchar(255), street varchar(255), firstName varchar(255), lastName varchar(255), primary key (id)) Dec 20, 2014 9:26:38 PM org.hibernate.tool.hbm2ddl.SchemaExport execute INFO: HHH000230: Schema export complete Hibernate: insert into Employee (PIN, city, country, state, street, firstName, lastName, id) values (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)
As
you observe, table created like below.
mysql> select * from employee; +----+--------+-----------+---------+-----------+--------------------+--------------+----------+ | id | PIN | city | country | state | street | firstName | lastName | +----+--------+-----------+---------+-----------+--------------------+--------------+----------+ | 1 | 560037 | Bangalore | India | Karnataka | Chowdeswari street | Hari Krishna | Gurram | +----+--------+-----------+---------+-----------+--------------------+--------------+----------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
Address
fields are embedded in employee class. There is no separate table for address
class.
