Spring with JPA pure approch - spring

Question

I have a problem with Spring and JPA. Basically I try to use JPA with Spring with a pure approach, or better, without explicit references in the code to Spring framework with the exception of the #Transactional. So I wanted to know where wrong.
My persistence.xml is:
<persistence xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/persistence_2_0.xsd"
version="2.0">
<persistence-unit name="fb-persistence" transaction-type="RESOURCE_LOCAL">
<provider>org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence</provider>
<class>it.synclab.fb.jpa.entity.Plugin</class>
<exclude-unlisted-classes>true</exclude-unlisted-classes>
<properties>
<property name="hibernate.dialect" value="org.hibernate.dialect.Oracle10gDialect"/>
<!-- da utilizzare solo in caso di creazione dello schema <property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" value="create-drop"/>-->
<property name="hibernate.connection.driver_class" value="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"/>
<property name="hibernate.show_sql" value="true"/>
<property name="hibernate.connection.username" value="flussibatch"/>
<property name="hibernate.connection.password" value="caposele"/>
<property name="hibernate.connection.url" value="jdbc:oracle:thin:#localhost:1521:XE"/>
</properties>
</persistence-unit>
</persistence>
My applicationContext is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-2.0.xsd">
<bean id="entityManagerFactory" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalEntityManagerFactoryBean">
<property name="persistenceUnitName" value="fb-persistence" />
</bean>
<bean class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.support.PersistenceAnnotationBeanPostProcessor" />
<bean name="pluginDao" class="it.synclab.fb.jpa.dao.impl.PluginDaoImpl" />
</beans>
my DAO interface is:
import it.synclab.fb.jpa.entity.Plugin;
public interface PluginDao {
public Plugin load (int id);
public void save(Plugin plg);
}
and my implementation is:
import javax.persistence.EntityManager;
import javax.persistence.PersistenceContext;
import org.springframework.transaction.annotation.Transactional;
import it.synclab.fb.jpa.entity.Plugin;
public class PluginDaoImpl implements PluginDao {
private EntityManager entityManager;
#PersistenceContext (unitName="fb-persistence")
public void setEntityManager(EntityManager entityManager) {
this.entityManager = entityManager;
}
#Override
public Plugin load(int id) {
return entityManager.find(Plugin.class, id);
}
#Override
#Transactional
public void save(Plugin plg) {
entityManager.persist(plg);
}
}
This is my "horror":
Exception in thread "main" org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'entityManagerFactory' defined in class path resource [applicationContext.xml]: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is javax.persistence.PersistenceException: [PersistenceUnit: fb-persistence] Unable to configure EntityManagerFactory

Answer 1

Caused by: org.hibernate.AnnotationException: mappedBy reference an
unknown target entity property:
it.synclab.fb.jpa.entity.StoreFileGet.idTransaction in
it.synclab.fb.jpa.entity.Transaction.listStoreFileGet
This means that in your entity you have an annotation like this
#OneToMany(mappedBy="something")
In this case, "something" has to be the name of the relevant field of the other entity.

Answer 2

You have only put the it.synclab.fb.jpa.entity.Plugin entity in your persistence.xml, but this entity has an association to another entity (it.synclab.fb.jpa.entity.StoreFileGet), which is not listed. All the entities must be listed.
