Hibernate Inner Join

In this section, you will learn how to do Inner Join in Hibernate.

Inner Join means to show records common to both table. The common records are determined by the one to many mapping columns. As you can see in the below figure address_id is the mapping field for the two tables  : employee and address , which also act as join column or field for the two tables.

First you need to do one to many mapping before using Inner join query. If you still unaware of one to many mapping click here.

The project structure is given below :

 

The SQL query used to create the two database table is given below :

CREATE TABLE `employee` (
`employee_id` bigint(10) NOT NULL auto_increment, 
`firstname` varchar(50) default NULL, 
`lastname` varchar(50) default NULL, 
`cell_phone` varchar(15) default NULL, 
`address_id` bigint(20) default NULL, 
PRIMARY KEY (`employee_id`), 
KEY `FK_employee` (`address_id`), 
CONSTRAINT `FK_employee` FOREIGN KEY (`address_id`) REFERENCES `address` (`address_id`) 
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 


CREATE TABLE `address` (
`address_id` bigint(20) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`street` varchar(50) default NULL,
`city` varchar(50) default NULL,
`state` varchar(50) default NULL,
`country` varchar(50) default NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`address_id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1
