Hibernate 6: Map a string to NCLOB

Any string variable that is annotated with @Nationalized and @Lob annotation will be mapped using NCLOB.

 

@Nationalized annotation specifies that the annotated character data should be stored with nationalization support. This annotation depends on the Dialect#getNationalizationSupport() method.

 

a.   Some databases support storing nationalized data using their "normal" character data types CHAR, VARCHAR, CLOB. For these dialects, this annotation is effectively ignored.

b.   Other databases support storing nationalized data only via the specialized, standard SQL variants NCHAR, NVARCHAR, NCLOB. For these dialects, this annotation will adjust the JDBC type code to use the specialized variant.

 

Example

@Nationalized
@Lob
private String aboutMe;

 

Find the below working application.

 

Step 1: Create new maven project ‘hibernate-map-string-to-nclob’.

 

Step 2: Update pom.xml with maven dependencies.

 

pom.xml

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 https://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
    <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
    <groupId>com.sample.app</groupId>
    <artifactId>hibernate-map-string-to-nclob</artifactId>
    <version>1</version>

    <properties>
        <project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>

        <java.version>15</java.version>
        <maven.compiler.source>${java.version}</maven.compiler.source>
        <maven.compiler.target>${java.version}</maven.compiler.target>

    </properties>

    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.postgresql</groupId>
            <artifactId>postgresql</artifactId>
            <version>42.4.1</version>
        </dependency>

        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
            <artifactId>hibernate-core</artifactId>
            <version>6.1.2.Final</version>
        </dependency>

        <dependency>
            <groupId>javax.persistence</groupId>
            <artifactId>javax.persistence-api</artifactId>
            <version>2.2</version>
        </dependency>


    </dependencies>
</project>

Step 3: Define Employee entity.

 

Employee.java

package com.sample.app.entity;

import org.hibernate.annotations.Nationalized;

import jakarta.persistence.Entity;
import jakarta.persistence.Id;
import jakarta.persistence.Lob;
import jakarta.persistence.Table;

@Entity
@Table(name = "employees")
public class Employee {
    @Id
    private int id;

    @Nationalized
    private String name;

    @Nationalized
    @Lob
    private String aboutMe;

    public Employee(int id, String name, String aboutMe) {
        super();
        this.id = id;
        this.name = name;
        this.aboutMe = aboutMe;
    }

    public int getId() {
        return id;
    }

    public void setId(int id) {
        this.id = id;
    }

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }

    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

    public String getAboutMe() {
        return aboutMe;
    }

    public void setAboutMe(String aboutMe) {
        this.aboutMe = aboutMe;
    }

}

Step 4: Create hibernate.cfg.xml file under src/main/resources folder.

 

hibernate.cfg.xml

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC
        "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD 3.0//EN"
        "http://www.hibernate.org/dtd/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd">
<hibernate-configuration>

    <session-factory>

        <!-- Database Connection settings -->
        <property name="connection.driver_class">org.postgresql.Driver</property>
        <property name="connection.url">jdbc:postgresql://127.0.0.1:5432/test</property>
        <property name="connection.username">postgres</property>
        <property name="connection.password">postgres</property>

        <!-- Enable the logging of all the generated SQL statements to the console -->
        <property name="show_sql">true</property>

        <!-- Format the generated SQL statement to make it more readable, -->
        <property name="format_sql">true</property>

        <!-- Hibernate will put comments inside all generated SQL statements to 
            hint what’s the generated SQL trying to do -->
        <property name="use_sql_comments">false</property>

        <property name="dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.PostgreSQLDialect</property>

        <property name="hbm2ddl.auto">update</property>

        <!-- mappings for annotated classes -->
        <mapping class="com.sample.app.entity.Employee" />

    </session-factory>

</hibernate-configuration>

Step 5: Define main application class.

 

App.java

package com.sample.app;

import java.sql.Types;
import java.util.List;

import org.hibernate.Session;
import org.hibernate.SessionFactory;
import org.hibernate.boot.Metadata;
import org.hibernate.boot.MetadataSources;
import org.hibernate.boot.registry.StandardServiceRegistry;
import org.hibernate.boot.registry.StandardServiceRegistryBuilder;
import org.hibernate.dialect.Dialect;
import org.hibernate.dialect.NationalizationSupport;
import org.hibernate.engine.spi.SessionFactoryImplementor;

import com.sample.app.entity.Employee;

import jakarta.persistence.criteria.CriteriaBuilder;
import jakarta.persistence.criteria.CriteriaQuery;

public class App {
    private static final SessionFactory SESSION_FACTORY = buildSessionFactory();

    private static SessionFactory buildSessionFactory() {
        try {

            final StandardServiceRegistry standardRegistry = new StandardServiceRegistryBuilder()
                    .configure("hibernate.cfg.xml").build();

            final Metadata metaData = new MetadataSources(standardRegistry).getMetadataBuilder().build();

            return metaData.getSessionFactoryBuilder().build();

        } catch (Throwable ex) {
            throw new ExceptionInInitializerError(ex);
        }

    }

    private static <T> List<T> loadAllData(Class<T> clazz, Session session) {
        final CriteriaBuilder builder = session.getCriteriaBuilder();
        final CriteriaQuery<T> criteria = builder.createQuery(clazz);
        criteria.from(clazz);
        return session.createQuery(criteria).getResultList();
    }

    public static void main(final String args[]) {
        Dialect dialect = ((SessionFactoryImplementor) SESSION_FACTORY).getJdbcServices().getDialect();
        NationalizationSupport nationalizationSupport = dialect.getNationalizationSupport();

        System.out.println("Types.CHAR : " + Types.CHAR);
        System.out.println("Types.VARCHAR : " + Types.VARCHAR);
        System.out.println("Types.LONGVARCHAR : " + Types.LONGVARCHAR);
        System.out.println("Types.CLOB : " + Types.CLOB);

        System.out.println("Types.NCHAR : " + Types.NCHAR);
        System.out.println("Types.NVARCHAR : " + Types.NVARCHAR);
        System.out.println("Types.LONGNVARCHAR : " + Types.LONGNVARCHAR);
        System.out.println("Types.NCLOB : " + Types.NCLOB);
        
        System.out.println("nationalizationSupport.getCharVariantCode() : " + nationalizationSupport.getCharVariantCode());
        System.out.println("nationalizationSupport.getClobVariantCode() : " + nationalizationSupport.getClobVariantCode());
        System.out.println("nationalizationSupport.getLongVarcharVariantCode() : " + nationalizationSupport.getLongVarcharVariantCode());
        System.out.println("nationalizationSupport.getVarcharVariantCode() : " + nationalizationSupport.getVarcharVariantCode());


        Employee e1 = new Employee(1, "Krishna", "Blogger, trekker and a father.......");
  
        try (final Session session = SESSION_FACTORY.openSession()) {
            session.beginTransaction();

            session.persist(e1);

            session.flush();
            session.getTransaction().commit();

            List<Employee> records = loadAllData(Employee.class, session);
            records.forEach(System.out::println);
        }

    }
}

Total project structure looks like below.



Run App.java, you will see below messages in the console.
