=== Java 11
With 6.0, Hibernate ORM has moved to expect Java 11 as its baseline version
[[read-jdbc]]
=== Reading from JDBC === Reading from JDBC
Throughput testing of Hibernate was showing that its use of reading JDBC values by name, rather than
by position was its limiting factor in any further scaling in terms of throughput.
This is the main reason for most of the changes in Hibernate 6.
This seemingly simple change, however, ripples through quite a few contracts - including some
APIs and some SPIs
==== Replace read-by-name with read-by-position
Various contracts in `org.hibernate.type` and `org.hibernate.usertype` were changed to now offer a read-by-position
method. The read-by-name methods were removed.
Read-by-position rather than read-by-name Read-by-position rather than read-by-name
[[type]]
=== Type system / custom types === Type system / custom types
==== Type changes Another change is to generally modernize Hibernate's mapping annotations and make them
more type-safe.
* The default type for `Duration` was changed to `NUMERIC` which could lead to schema validation errors We decided this is the right time since 6.0 is a major release and most of the type-related
contracts were already changing to implement the <<read-jdbc,read-by-position>> changes.
==== Influencing JdbcTypeDescriptor to use One part of this work was the removal of various String-based approaches for specifying Types to use from annotations, including
the removal of `@Type`, `@AnyMetaDef`, `@AnyMetaDefs`, `@MapKeyType`, @TypeDef` and `@TypeDefs`, as well as
removing annotation attributes accepting the type to use as a String (e.g. `org.hibernate.annotations.CollectionType#type`)
Discuss `JdbcTypeCode`, `JdbcType`, `JdbcTypeRegistration` The Hibernate {user-guide-base}?type[User Guide] covers the details of mapping your domain model.
// todo (6.0) - find proper id syntax for "domain model" type ^^
==== Influencing JavaTypeDescriptor to use
Discuss `@JavaType`, `@JavaTypeRegistration`
==== Component Mapping [[rename-java-type]]
==== Renaming of JavaTypeDescriptor contract
Multiple component mappings for the same java class with different property mappings is not supported anymore. Every property mapping combination should have its own java class" The interface `org.hibernate.type.descriptor.java.JavaTypeDescriptor` has been renamed to
`org.hibernate.type.descriptor.java.JavaType`
=== Procedure Parameters, enable passing nulls
Passing null or not is now triggered by whether setting the parameter was called at all. In other ords a distinction is made between calling `setParameter` passing null versus not calling `setParameter` at all. In the first case, we pass along the null value; in the second we do not. [[rename-jdbc-type]]
==== Renaming of SqlTypeDescriptor contract
The interface `org.hibernate.type.descriptor.sql.SqlTypeDescriptor` has been renamed to
`org.hibernate.type.descriptor.jdbc.JdbcType`
[[basic-type]]
==== Basic types
Basic types are no longer exposed as customizable. Instead, users configure
the different aspects of mapping the basic value to the database -
* `JavaType`
* `JdbcType`
* `BasicValueConverter`{fn-converter}
* `MutabilityPlan`
See the Hibernate {user-guide-base}?basic-type[User Guide] for details of mapping
// todo (6.0) - find proper id syntax for "domain model" basic-type ^^
basic values in your domain model, including how to influence these 4 aspects.
This also made the various implementations of `BasicType` obsolete, thus they have been removed.
`NamedBasicTypeImpl` takes the role of all the previous specific implementations by wrapping a
`JdbcType` and `JavaType`.
The `StandardBasicTypes` class previously exposed `BasicType` instance fields, which now have been replaced with fields
of the type `BasicTypeReference`. APIs that previously accepted just a `BasicType` have been adapted to also accept a
`BasicTypeReference` which allows for uses of `StandardBasicType` fields to stay mostly source compatible.
==== Embeddables / components
Addition of `EmbeddableInstantiator`
Constructor injection. Embeddables used as identifiers cannot use constructor injection.
See the Hibernate {user-guide-base}?embeddable-type[User Guide] for details.
// todo (6.0) - find proper id syntax for "domain model" embeddable-type ^^

[[query-sqm-rows]]
==== Result "rows"
Queries that use joins without specifying a select clause (e.g. `from Person p join p.address`)
used to return a `List<Object[]>`. Starting with 6.0, such a query instead returns
`List<Person>`
The HQL query `select p, a from Person p join p.address a` returns instead a `List<Object[]>`.
``` ```
s.createQuery( "select p from Parent p where id in ?0", Parent.class );
query.setParameter( 0, Arrays.asList( 0, 1, 2, 3 ) );
```

```
s.createQuery( "select p from Parent p where id in ?`", Parent.class );
query.setParameter( 1, Arrays.asList( 0, 1, 2, 3 ) );
```
==== HQL results
HQL queries that use joins without specifying a select clause e.g. `from Person p join p.address` do not return a `List<Object[]>` with an entry per join anymore, but a list of `Person`.
The HQL query `select p,a from Person p join p.address a` returns instead a `List<Object[]>`.
e.g.
```
@Entity
class Person {
...
@ManyToOne
Address address
...
}
@Entity
class Address {
...
}
List<Person> result = session.createQuery("from Person p join p.address").list(); List<Person> result = session.createQuery("from Person p join p.address").list();
List<Object[]> results = session.createQuery("select p, a from Person p join p.address a").list(); List<Object[]> results = session.createQuery("select p, a from Person p join p.address a").list();
``` ```
==== Stream
`jakarta.persistence.Query#getResultStream()` and `org.hibernate.query.Query#stream()` do not return a `Stream` decorator anymore, so in order to close the underlying IO resources is now necessary to explicitly call the `Stream#close()` method. The JDK `Stream` documentation is quite explicit about the need for an explicit call to `close` by the user to avoid resource leakages, so we build upon this requirement. [[query-sqm-pass-thru]]
===== Pass-through tokens
==== Iterate The use of plain HQL identifiers in e.g. functions which couldn't be interpreted as an attribute of a `FROM` root
were passed through as-is to SQL in Hibernate 5.x which was dropped in 6.0 because we believe this is unsafe
and might lead to surprising results. HQL queries that relied on this, need to be changed and use the newly introduced
`sql` function, which allows passing through the content of a string literal to SQL.
The `Query#iterate()` method has been removed. The alternative is to use `Query#stream()` or `Query#getResultStream()`. An HQL query like `select substring( e.description, 21, 11, octets ) from AnEntity e`, which relies on this for passing through `octets`
can be migrated to `select substring( e.description, 21, 11, sql('octets') ) from AnEntity e`.
==== Using DISTINCT with entity queries

=== Native Query
==== Native query as a function call is no longer supported. ===== Association Comparisons
Previously Hibernate did allow comparing an association with an FK value like `... where alias.association = 1`
or `... where alias.association = alias.association.id` or even `... where alias.association = :param` where `param`
is bound to an integer `1`. This was supported prior to Hibernate 6.0 if the foreign key for the association is an integer.
The right way to do this is de-referencing the association by the FK attribute `... where alias.association.id = 1`
which is guaranteed to not produce a join, or use an entity reference for `... where alias.association = :param`
where `param` is bound to `entityManager.getReference(EntityClass.class, 1)`.
[[query-sqm-psuedo-attr]]
===== Collection psuedo-attributes
Prior to 6.0, it was possible to de-reference special properties on plural attributes like `size` which was dropped.
The special properties lead to confusion and were sometimes ambiguous. The replacement is the function syntax.

=== Remove support for comparing association against FK value

[[proc-call-param]]
==== Procedure Parameters
For parameters defined on a ProcedureCall as accepting binding (IN and INOUT), a distinction is now
made between whether `setParameter` is called or not. If `setParameter` was called, whatever value
was set by the user is passed to the database. If it was not called, Hibernate will not
set any value which triggers the default value defined on the database procedure argument be used
The right way to do this is de-referencing the association by the FK attribute `... where alias.association.id = 1`
which is guaranteed to not produce a join, or use an entity reference for `... where alias.association = :param`

=== Changes in the type package
One of the main changes in Hibernate 6 which ripples through quite a few contracts is the change for reading by position
rather than by name from JDBC. We took this as a chance to fix-up some contracts which were named badly and cleanup
basic types in general.
==== Replace read-by-name with read-by-position
Various contracts in `org.hibernate.type` and `org.hibernate.usertype` were changed to now offer a read-by-position ==== Misc
method. The read-by-name methods were removed.
==== Removal of various BasicType implementations * The default type for `Duration` was changed to `NUMERIC` which could lead to schema validation errors
Almost all `BasicType` implementations in `org.hibernate.type` were removed because the responsibilities these classes
had were moved to the `JdbcType` and `JavaType` contracts as well as sub-contracts like `AdjustableJdbcType`,
`VersionJavaType` and `TemporalJavaTypeDescriptor`.
The new implementation for almost all basic types is `NamedBasicTypeImpl` which just wraps a `JdbcType` and `JavaType`
along with a name.
The `StandardBasicTypes` class previously exposed `BasicType` instance fields, which now have been replaced with fields
of the type `BasicTypeReference`. APIs that previously accepted just a `BasicType` have been adapted to also accept a
`BasicTypeReference` which allows for uses of `StandardBasicType` fields to stay mostly source compatible.
==== Renaming of JavaTypeDescriptor contract
Previously the package `org.hibernate.type.descriptor.java` contained `JavaTypeDescriptor` implementations
for various basic types named with a suffix of `Type`, `JavaType` or `JavaTypeDescriptor`.
The `JavaTypeDescriptor` interface was renamed to `JavaType` and implementations were renamed to have the suffix `JavaType`.
==== Renaming of SqlTypeDescriptor contract
Previously the package `org.hibernate.type.descriptor.sql` contained `SqlTypeDescriptor` implementations
for various basic types named with a suffix of `TypeDescriptor`.
The `SqlTypeDescriptor` interface was renamed to `JdbcType` and implementations were renamed to have the suffix `JdbcType`.
The package was also changed from `org.hibernate.type.descriptor.sql` to `org.hibernate.type.descriptor.jdbc`.
=== Dropped support for pass-through HQL tokens
The use of plain HQL identifiers in e.g. functions which couldn't be interpreted as an attribute of a `FROM` root
were passed through as-is to SQL in Hibernate 5.x which was dropped in 6.0 because we believe this is unsafe
and might lead to surprising results. HQL queries that relied on this, need to be changed and use the newly introduced
`sql` function, which allows passing through the content of a string literal to SQL.
An HQL query like `select substring( e.description, 21, 11, octets ) from AnEntity e`, which relies on this for passing through `octets`
can be migrated to `select substring( e.description, 21, 11, sql('octets') ) from AnEntity e`.
