以下文字摘自:JOIN, JOIN2, HQL, Fetch
Join用法:
主要有Inner Join 及 Outer Join:
最常用的(默认是Inner):
Select <要选择的字段> From <主要资料表>
<Join 方式> <次要资料表> [On <Join 规则>]
Inner Join 的主要精神就是 exclusive , 叫它做排他性吧! 就是讲 Join 规则不相符的资料就会被排除掉, 譬如讲在 Product 中有一项产品的供货商代码 (SupplierId), 没有出现在 Suppliers 资料表中, 那么这笔记录便会被排除掉
Outer Join:
Select <要查询的字段> From <Left 资料表>
<Left | Right> [Outer] Join <Right 资料表> On <Join 规则>
语 法中的 Outer 是可以省略的, 例如你可以用 Left Join 或是 Right Join, 在本质上, Outer Join 是 inclusive, 叫它做包容性吧! 不同于 Inner Join 的排他性, 因此在 Left Outer Join 的查询结果会包含所有 Left 资料表的资料, 颠倒过来讲, Right Outer Join 的查询就会包含所有 Right 资料表的资料
另外,还有全外联:
FULL JOIN 或 FULL OUTER JOIN
完整外部联接返回左表和右表中的所有行。当某行在另一个表中没有匹配行时,则另一个表的选择列表列包含空值。如果表之间有匹配行,则整个结果集行包含基表的数据值。
以及,
交叉联接
交叉联接返回左表中的所有行,左表中的每一行与右表中的所有行组合。交叉联接也称作笛卡尔积。
没有 WHERE 子句的交叉联接将产生联接所涉及的表的笛卡尔积。第一个表的行数乘以第二个表的行数等于笛卡尔积结果集的大小。也就是说在没有 WHERE 子句的情况下,若表 A 有 3 行记录,表 B 有 6 行记录 : :
SELECT A.*,B.* FROM 表A CROSS JOIN 表B
那以上语句会返回 18 行记录。
Fetch:
在我们查询Parent对象的时候,默认只有Parent的内容,并不包含childs的信息,如果在Parent.hbm.xml里设置lazy="false"的话才同时取出关联的所有childs内容.
问题是我既想要hibernate默认的性能又想要临时的灵活性该怎么办? 这就是fetch的功能。我们可以把fetch与lazy="true"的关系类比为事务当中的编程式事务与声明式事务,不太准确,但是大概是这个意思。
总值,fetch就是在代码这一层给你一个主动抓取得机会.
Parent parent = (Parent)hibernateTemplate.execute(new HibernateCallback() {
public Object doInHibernate(Session session) throws HibernateException, SQLException {
Query q = session.createQuery(
"from Parent as parent "+
" left outer join fetch parent.childs " +
" where parent.id = :id"
);
q.setParameter("id",new Long(15));
return (Parent)q.uniqueResult();
}
});
Assert.assertTrue(parent.getChilds().size() > 0);
你可以在lazy="true"的情况下把fetch去掉,就会报异常. 当然,如果lazy="false"就不需要fetch了
HQL一些特色方法:
in and between may be used as follows:
from DomesticCat cat where cat.name between 'A' and 'B'
from DomesticCat cat where cat.name in ( 'Foo', 'Bar', 'Baz' )
and the negated forms may be written
from DomesticCat cat where cat.name not between 'A' and 'B'
from DomesticCat cat where cat.name not in ( 'Foo', 'Bar', 'Baz' )
Likewise, is null and is not null may be used to test for null values.
Booleans may be easily used in expressions by declaring HQL query substitutions in Hibernate configuration:
<property name="hibernate.query.substitutions">true 1, false 0</property>
This will replace the keywords true and false with the literals 1 and 0 in the translated SQL from this HQL:
from Cat cat where cat.alive = true
You may test the size of a collection with the special property size, or the special size() function.
from Cat cat where cat.kittens.size > 0
from Cat cat where size(cat.kittens) > 0
For indexed collections, you may refer to the minimum and maximum indices using minindex and maxindex functions. Similarly, you may refer to the minimum and maximum elements of a collection of basic type using the minelement and maxelement functions.
from Calendar cal where maxelement(cal.holidays) > current_date
from Order order where maxindex(order.items) > 100
from Order order where minelement(order.items) > 10000
The SQL functions any, some, all, exists, in are supported when passed the element or index set of a collection (elements and indices functions) or the result of a subquery (see below).
select mother from Cat as mother, Cat as kit
where kit in elements(foo.kittens)
select p from NameList list, Person p
where p.name = some elements(list.names)
from Cat cat where exists elements(cat.kittens)
from Player p where 3 > all elements(p.scores)
from Show show where 'fizard' in indices(show.acts)
Note that these constructs - size, elements, indices, minindex, maxindex, minelement, maxelement - may only be used in the where clause in Hibernate3.
Elements of indexed collections (arrays, lists, maps) may be referred to by index (in a where clause only):
from Order order where order.items[0].id = 1234
select person from Person person, Calendar calendar
where calendar.holidays['national day'] = person.birthDay
and person.nationality.calendar = calendar
select item from Item item, Order order
where order.items[ order.deliveredItemIndices[0] ] = item and order.id = 11
select item from Item item, Order order
where order.items[ maxindex(order.items) ] = item and order.id = 11
The expression inside [] may even be an arithmetic expression.
select item from Item item, Order order
where order.items[ size(order.items) - 1 ] = item
HQL also provides the built-in index() function, for elements of a one-to-many association or collection of values.
select item, index(item) from Order order
join order.items item
where index(item) < 5
Scalar SQL functions supported by the underlying database may be used
from DomesticCat cat where upper(cat.name) like 'FRI%'
