[hibernate-dev] Stored procedure improvement
Hi,
While writing the stored procedure section, I found a way to improve the
current implementation to FUNCTIONS as well.
Considering the following function:
CREATE FUNCTION fn_post_comments(postId integer)
RETURNS integer
DETERMINISTIC
READS SQL DATA
BEGIN
DECLARE commentCount integer;
SELECT COUNT(*) INTO commentCount
FROM post_comment
WHERE post_comment.post_id = postId;
RETURN commentCount;
END
We could call this function and fetch the result ith plain-old JDBC:
session.doWork(connection -> {
try (CallableStatement function = connection.prepareCall("{ ? =
call fn_count_comments(?) }")) {
function.registerOutParameter(1, Types.INTEGER);
function.setInt(2, 1);
function.execute();
int commentCount = function.getInt(1);
assertEquals(2, commentCount);
}
});
When using the JPA 2.1 API:
StoredProcedureQuery query =
entityManager.createStoredProcedureQuery("fn_count_comments");
query.registerStoredProcedureParameter("postId", Long.class, ParameterMode.IN);
query.setParameter("postId", 1L);
Long commentCount = (Long) query.getSingleResult();
We get a "PROCEDURE fn_count_comments does not exist" exception because the
SQL statement is built as "{call fn_count_comments(?)}" instead of "{ ? =
call fn_count_comments(?) }".
I think we could define a hint like this:
query.setHint(QueryHints.HINT_CALL_FUNCTION, true);
So we could adjust the callable statement to work like a function.
What do you think of this?
