LazyGroup Loading Mechanism --------------------------- Key: HHH-5120 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-5120 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: Improvement Components: core Environment: Hibernate Reporter: Demidovich Artem Priority: Minor I would like to suggest a new functionality, which could improve Lazy loading. For Example, I have bussines objects and there is an object named Company. Company has many fields, but I can separate Company fields in two or three logical groups and those fields of the object can be groupped in LazyGroups (for example "LazyGroup1", "LazyGroup2"). Now if caller tries to get some field from the LazyGroup1 then Nibernate will load all fields from this group. Just for example Company Type LazyGroup 1. Name (string) 2. Postal Code (string) 3. Address (Address Object) 4. Wokers (Lazy Collection) 5. Contracts (Lazy Collection) (LazyGroup = 'LG1') 6. Clients (Lazy Collection) (LazyGroup = 'LG1') 7. BussinesInfo (string) (LazyGroup = 'LG2') 8. BussinesRegions (Lazy Collection) (LazyGroup = 'LG2') 8. BussinesPartners (Lazy Collection) (LazyGroup = 'LG2') So, if I call BussinesInfo getter then Hibernate should load all fields in 'LG2' LazyGroup (BussinussInfo, BussinessRegions, BussinesPartners). This improvement will descrease amount of sql queries, because hibernate will use one query for loading all fields from the lazy group rather than calling one query per field. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/secure/Administrators.... - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
