Hibernate Interview Question:

What do you mean by Named - SQL query?

Submitted by: Administrator

Named SQL queries are defined in the mapping xml document and called wherever required.
Example:
<sql-query name = “empdetails”>
<return alias=”emp” class=”com.test.Employee”/>
SELECT emp.EMP_ID AS {emp.empid},
emp.EMP_ADDRESS AS {emp.address},
emp.EMP_NAME AS {emp.name}
FROM Employee EMP WHERE emp.NAME LIKE :name
</sql-query>
Invoke Named Query :
List people = session.getNamedQuery(”empdetails”)
.setString(”TomBrady”, name)
.setMaxResults(50)
.list();
