Hibernate Examples

OpenMRS currently uses Hibernate to connect the OpenMRS objects to the relational database tables.

You can see the hibernate mapping files in [source:openmrs/trunk/metadata/api/hibernate].

Modules must add hibernate.hbm.xml files to their /metadata file AND reference them in their config.xml files in the <mappingFiles> element.

Example Java Object


package org.openmrs;

import java.util.Collection;
import java.util.Date;
import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.Locale;

/**
 * ConceptName is the real world term used to express a Concept within the idiom of a particular
 * locale.
 */
public class ConceptName extends BaseOpenmrsObject implements Auditable {

	// Fields
	private Integer conceptNameId;

	private Concept concept;

	private String name;

	private Locale locale;

	private Collection<ConceptNameTag> tags;

	// Constructors

	/** default constructor */
	public ConceptName() {
	}

	/**
	 * Convenience constructor to create a ConceptName object by primary key
	 *
	 * @param conceptNameId
	 */
	public ConceptName(Integer conceptNameId) {
		this.conceptNameId = conceptNameId;
	}

	/**
	 * @see java.lang.Object#equals(java.lang.Object)
	 */
	public boolean equals(Object obj) {
		if (!(obj instanceof ConceptName)) {
			return false;
		}
		ConceptName rhs = (ConceptName) obj;
		if (this.conceptNameId != null && rhs.conceptNameId != null)
			return (this.conceptNameId.equals(rhs.conceptNameId));
		else
			return this == obj;
	}

	/**
	 * @see java.lang.Object#hashCode()
	 */
	public int hashCode() {
		if (this.getConceptNameId() == null)
			return super.hashCode();
		int hash = 3;
		hash = hash + 31 * this.getConceptNameId();
		return hash;
	}

	public Integer getConceptNameId() {
		return conceptNameId;
	}

	public void setConceptNameId(Integer conceptNameId) {
		this.conceptNameId = conceptNameId;
	}

	public Concept getConcept() {
		return concept;
	}

	public void setConcept(Concept concept) {
		this.concept = concept;
	}

	public String getName() {
		return name;
	}

	public void setName(String name) {
		this.name = name;
	}

	public Locale getLocale() {
		return locale;
	}

	public void setLocale(Locale locale) {
		this.locale = locale;
	}

	public Collection<ConceptNameTag> getTags() {
		return tags;
	}

	public void setTags(Collection<ConceptNameTag> tags) {
		this.tags = tags;
	}
}

Hibernate Mapping File

This mapping file works with the above concept.

Some attributes defined here (like uuid, creator, voided, etc.) are defined on the parent class of ConceptName.

<generator />can also be the custom openmrs<generator />
