java hibernate mysql database rdbms

Jed:

Hibernate no longer uses the c3p0 connection pool automagically in response to setting a few c3p0 config properties. You have to explicitly tell it to use c3p0 now.

Hibernate Patterns: polymorphic many-to-one

hibernate, interface, java, polymorphic

Jed:

Recently I found myself in a situation where I needed to define a persistent many-to-one relationship in which the concrete class of the many side could vary. In the past I’d had some issues with class inheritance and Hibernate, which can get sticky because of Hibernate proxies: you can’t always cast the proxies to the desired type. Since I had to find a way to make this work, I decided to give interface inheritance a try.
