Hibernate Version Tutorial with Example

Hibernate Version management

The <version> element is optional and indicates that the table contains versioned data. This is particularly useful if you plan to use long transactions, Version tag may help you to avoid concurrent updation for a row.

<version name="count" column="hits"></version>
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-mapping PUBLIC 
  "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Mapping DTD//EN"
  "http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-mapping-3.0.dtd">
<hibernate-mapping>
  <class name="com.candidjava.hibernate.Student" table="userstest">
    <id name="id" column="id">
      <generator class="increment" />
    </id>
    <version name="count" column="hits"></version>
    <property name="name" column="fname" not-null="true" />
    <property name="degree" column="degree" />
    <property name="phone" column="mobile" />
    <property name="email" column="priEmail" />
 
  </class>
 
</hibernate-mapping>

Updating versioned record

public void updateStd() {
    try {
      Session s = getSession();
      Transaction tx = s.beginTransaction();
      Student user = (Student) s.get(Student.class, student.getId());
      user.setName(student.getName());
      user.setEmail(student.getEmail());
      user.setDegree(student.getDegree());
      user.setPhone(student.getPhone());
      Thread.sleep(1000); // delay the update to do concurrent test
      s.update(user);
      tx.commit();
    } catch (HibernateException | InterruptedException e) {
      System.out.println(e.getMessage());
      System.out.println("updation failed");
    }
  }

Test Concurrency

Student sa=new Student();
    sa.setId(1);
    sa.setName("raman");
    sa.setEmail("[email protected]");
    sa.setPhone("9557857");
    sa.setDegree("bca");
 
    Student sas=new Student();
    sas.setId(1);
    sas.setName("ramaaaan");
    sas.setEmail("[email protected]");
    sas.setPhone("953358775");
    sas.setDegree("Mca");
 
    StudentDao ms=new StudentDao();
    ms.setStudent(sa);
    
    StudentDao mss=new StudentDao();
    mss.setStudent(sas);
    
    ms.start();
    mss.start();
