Hello good fellas! in my journey of learning hibernate i came across an article on hibernate site. i' learning spring too and wanted to do certain things to discover the flexibility of spring by letting you implement you own session.yes i don't want to use the hibernateTemplate(for experiment). and i'm now having a problem and even the test class.I followed the article on the hibernate site especially the section an "implementation with hibernate"
so we have the generic dao interface :
public interface GenericDAO<T, ID extends Serializable> {
T findById(ID id, boolean lock);
List<T> findAll();
List<T> findByExample(T exampleInstance);
T makePersistent(T entity);
void makeTransient(T entity);
}
it's implementation in an abstract class that is the same as the one on the web site.Please refer to it from the link i provide.i'll like to save this post to be too long
now come my dao's messagedao interface
package com.project.core.dao;
import com.project.core.model.MessageDetails;
import java.util.List;
public interface MessageDAO extends GenericDAO<MessageDetails, Long>{
//Message class is on of my pojo
public List<Message> GetAllByStatus(String status);
}
its implementation is messagedaoimpl:
public class MessageDAOImpl extends GenericDAOImpl <Message, Long> implements MessageDAO {
// mySContainer is an interface which my HibernateUtils implement
mySContainer sessionManager;
/**
*
*/
public MessageDAOImpl(){}
/**
*
* @param sessionManager
*/
public MessageDAOImpl(HibernateUtils sessionManager){
this.sessionManager = sessionManager;
}
//........ plus other
methods
}
here is my HibernatUtils
public class HibernateUtils implements SessionContainer {
private final SessionFactory sessionFactory;
private Session session;
public HibernateUtils() {
this.sessionFactory = new AnnotationConfiguration().configure().buildSessionFactory();
}
public HibernateUtils(SessionFactory sessionFactory) {
this.sessionFactory = sessionFactory;
}
/**
*
* this is the function that return a session.So i'm free to implements any type of session in here.
*/
public Session requestSession() {
// if (session != null || session.isOpen()) {
// return session;
// } else {
session = sessionFactory.openSession();
// }
return session;
}
}
So in my understanding while using spring(will provide the conf), i'ld wire sessionFactory to my HiberbernateUtils and then wire its method RequestSession to the Session Property of the GenericDAOImpl (the one from the link provided).
here is my spring config core.xml
<bean id="sessionManager" class="com.project.core.dao.hibernate.HibernateUtils">
<constructor-arg ref="sessionFactory" />
</bean>
<bean id="messageDao" class="com.project.core.dao.hibernate.MessageDAOImpl">
<constructor-arg ref="sessionManager"/>
</bean>
<bean id="genericDAOimpl" class="com.project.core.dao.GenericDAO">
<property name="session" ref="mySession"/>
</bean>
<bean id="mySession" factory-bean="com.project.core.dao.SessionContainer" factory-method="requestSession"/>
now my test is this
public class MessageDetailsDAOImplTest extends AbstractDependencyInjectionSpringContextTests{
HibernateUtils sessionManager = (HibernateUtils) applicationContext.getBean("sessionManager");
MessageDAO messagedao =(MessageDAO) applicationContext.getBean("messageDao");
static Message[] message = new Message[]
{
new Message("text",1,"test for dummies 1","1234567890","Pending",new Date()),
new Message("text",2,"test for dummies 2","334455669990","Delivered",new Date())
};
public MessageDAOImplTest() {
}
@Override
protected String[] getConfigLocations(){
return new String[]{"file:src/main/resources/core.xml"};
}
@Test
public void testMakePersistent() {
System.out.println("MakePersistent");
messagedao.makePersistent(message[0]);
Session session = sessionManager.RequestSession();
session.beginTransaction();
MessageDetails fromdb = ( Message) session.load(Message.class, message[0].getMessageId());
assertEquals(fromdb.getMessageId(), message[0].getMessageId());
assertEquals(fromdb.getDateSent(),message.getDateSent());
assertEquals(fromdb.getGlobalStatus(),message.getGlobalStatus());
assertEquals(fromdb.getNumberOfPages(),message.getNumberOfPages());
}
i'm having this error
exception in constructor testMakePersistent(java.lang.NullPointerException at com.project.core.dao.hibernate.MessageDAOImplTest)

How to actually make this one work.I know this is a lot to stuffs and i'm thanking you for reading it.Please give me a solution.How would you do this? thanks
