Sample code

Join

@Test

     Configuration conf = new Configuration().configure();

     SessionFactory sessionFactory = conf.buildSessionFactory();
     // Open a session object related to the database.
     Session session = sessionFactory.openSession();
        System.out.println(session);
    }

The connection is established.

Automatic table creation

Open the row comment for the configuration file:

After you delete the user table in the database, perform the following test operations:

@Test
    public void testCreateTableAndInsertData(){
        // Create test objects.
        User user = new User();
        user.setUsername("hibernateTest");
        user.setSex("Female");
        user.setBirthday(new Date());
        user.setAddress("Beijing");

        //Start the transaction, where the statement data is obtained based on the session.
        Transaction transaction = session.beginTransaction();
        //Save data based on the session.
        session.save(user);

Open the comments on the tel attribute in the entity class and the XML file and execute the following method:

@Test
    public void testAlterTable(){
        // Create test objects.
        User user = new User();
        user.setUsername("hibernateTest");
        user.setSex("Female");
        user.setBirthday(new Date());
        user.setAddress("Beijing");
        user.setTel("12345678911");

        //Start the transaction, where the statement data is obtained based on the session.
        Transaction transaction = session.beginTransaction();
        //Save data based on the session.

        session.save(user);
        //Commit the transaction.
        transaction.commit();
        // Close the session connection object after the operation is completed.
        session.close();
    }

Persist data

Test method:

@Test
    public void testInsert() {
        User u1 = new User("asd", new Date(), "Male", "Zhangzhou");
        User u2 = new User("qwe", new Date(), "Female", "Hangzhou");
        User u3 = new User("zxc", new Date(), "Male", "Shanghai");
        User u4 = new User("xcv", new Date(), "Female", "Hangzhou");
        User u5 = new User("sdf", new Date(), "Male", "Hangzhou");
        User u6 = new User("wer", new Date(), "Female", "Hangzhou");
        User u7 = new User("ert", new Date(), "Male", "Zhangzhou");
        User u8 = new User("rty", new Date(), "Female", "Shanghai");
        User u9 = new User("tyu", new Date(), "Male", "Hangzhou");
        ArrayList<User> users = new ArrayList<>();
        users.add(u1);
        users.add(u2);
        users.add(u3);
        users.add(u4);
        users.add(u5);
        users.add(u6);
        users.add(u7);
        users.add(u8);
        users.add(u9);
        //Start the transaction, where the statement data is obtained based on the session.
        Transaction transaction = session.beginTransaction();
        //Save data based on the session.
        for (User user : users) {
            session.save(user);
        }
        //Commit the transaction.
        transaction.commit();
        // Close the session connection object after the operation is completed.
        session.close();
    }

        user.setAddress("Hangzhou");
        session.update(user);
        user = (User) session.createSQLQuery("select * from user where id = 1").addEntity(User.class).list().get(0);
