Hibernate ORM 4.2.0.CR1 was just released. The full changelog can be viewed here: https://hibernate.onjira.com/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=10031&vers...
This release included a few notable bug fixes and improvements:
- https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HHH-465 : "nulls first" and "nulls last" syntax in HQL ordering
- https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HHH-1917 : automatically delete orphaned JoinTable rows on a bulk delete affecting a Many-To-Many association
- https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HHH-2448 : deterministic column aliases, regardless of mapping ordering -- mainly affects clustering environments
- https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HHH-7797 : the logic handling unique columns and constraints was entirely re-written and improved
In addition, a handful of performance improvements went in. So far, we have seen dramatic improvements in JBoss benchmarking.
- https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HHH-7746 : additional batch loading algorithms (use "hibernate.batch_fetch_style" in your settings -- see the new Enum for choices)
- https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HHH-7872 : improves L2 caching of reference data (enable with "hibernate.cache.use_reference_entries")
- https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HHH-7902 : Originally, JDBC types (Connection, Statement, ResultSet, etc.) were wrapped with Java Proxies to introduce resource management, logging, etc. The proxying was shown to be a performance hotspot, so they were entirely removed. The functionality was replaced with a new set of internal contracts/helpers.
As usual, thank you to the community for all the support and hard work!
