Note: Before anyone complain about this is a duplicate, make sure to go through the content without judging by title. Also make sure to read your reference question and the answer carefully to see whether it is duplicate. As of my experience now, the issue in this question can happen under different environments. For an example, the answer for someone using the below code in jsp
will be different, for someone using Spring
will be different and for someone whose DB is small and eager
load is fine will be different. And no, my situation is not any of them.
I am writing a REST
api using Hibernate
and Jersey
. Please have a look at the below code.
VerificationCodeJSONService.java - The JSON Service class
@Path("/verificaion_code")
public class VerificationCodeJSONService {
@GET
@Path("/getAllVerificationCodes")
@Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
public List<VerificaionCode> getAllVerificationCodes() {
VerificationCodeService verificationCodeService=new VerificationCodeService();
List<VerificaionCode> list = verificationCodeService.getAllVerificationCodes();
return list;
}
}
VerificationCodeService.java - The Service Layer
public class VerificationCodeService {
private static VerificationCodeDAOInterface verificationCodeDAOInterface;
public VerificationCodeService() {
verificationCodeDAOInterface = new VerificationCodeDAOImpl();
}
public List<VerificaionCode> getAllVerificationCodes() {
Session session = verificationCodeDAOInterface.openCurrentSession();
Transaction transaction = null;
List<VerificaionCode> verificaionCodes = new ArrayList<VerificaionCode>();
try {
transaction = verificationCodeDAOInterface.openTransaction(session);
verificaionCodes = verificationCodeDAOInterface.getAllVerificationCodes(session);
transaction.commit();
} catch (Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
} finally {
session.close();
}
return verificaionCodes;
}
}
VerificationCodeDAOImpl.java - The database layer
public class VerificationCodeDAOImpl implements VerificationCodeDAOInterface{
private static final SessionFactoryBuilder sessionFactoryBuilder = SessionFactoryBuilder.getInstance();
@Override
public List<VerificaionCode> getAllVerificationCodes(Session session) {
List<VerificaionCode> verificaionCodes=(List<VerificaionCode>)session.createQuery("from VerificaionCode").list();
return verificaionCodes;
}
}
VerificationCode.java - The DAO layer
public class VerificaionCode implements java.io.Serializable {
private Integer idverificaionCode;

public VerificaionCode() {

However when I run this code via http://localhost:8080/example_rest/rest/verificaion_code/getAllVerificationCodes
I am getting the below error.
could not initialize proxy - no Session (through reference chain: java.util.ArrayList[0]->beans.VerificaionCode["patient"]->beans.Patient_$$_jvst40f_7["diabetesType"])
As you can see diabetesType
is an Object
(Foreign Key) in the patient's table and has nothing to do with VerificationCode
. How can I fix this up?
Please note that this is a REST
API. So I can't load these in a JSP like in a web app.
Update
As @Kayaman recommended, I made the updates by making null
. Please check the below code. I noticed that verificaionCodes.get(i).getPatient().set...(null)
makes the same error as above, so I tried below which started working fine.
VerificationCodeService.java
public List<VerificaionCode> getAllVerificationCodes() {
Session session = verificationCodeDAOInterface.openCurrentSession();
Transaction transaction = null;
List<VerificaionCode> verificaionCodes = new ArrayList<VerificaionCode>();
try {
transaction = verificationCodeDAOInterface.openTransaction(session);
verificaionCodes = verificationCodeDAOInterface.getAllVerificationCodes(session);
transaction.commit();
} catch (Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
} finally {
session.close();
for(int i=0;i<verificaionCodes.size();i++)
{
Patient p = new Patient();
System.out.println(verificaionCodes.get(i).getPatient().getIdpatient());
Integer idpatient = verificaionCodes.get(i).getPatient().getIdpatient();
p.setIdpatient(idpatient);
verificaionCodes.get(i).setPatient(p);
}
}
return verificaionCodes;
}
