In the last post we saw how to define OnetoOne mapping using JPA but it was unidirectional, which means when we load Employee we can see EmployeeAddress but vise-versa is not true.

Today we will update our mapping so that if we fetch EmployeeAddress we can obtain related Employee.

Our Employee.java will remain as it is, but we will introduce a concept of mappedBy attribute as part of @OneToOne in our EmployeeAddress.java.

Employee.java

To test our code we will use OneToOneUniDirectionalMainApp.java.

OneToOneUniDirectionalMainApp.java

package com.mumz.jpa.mapping.onetoone;

import javax.persistence.EntityManager;
import javax.persistence.EntityTransaction;

import com.mumz.jpa.JPAConnectionFactory;

public class OneToOneUniDirectionalMainApp {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		EntityManager entityManager = JPAConnectionFactory.getEntityManager("jpaPersistenceUnit");

		Employee employee = new Employee();
		employee.setIsActive("True");
		employee.setName("Test");

		EmployeeAddress employeeAddress = new EmployeeAddress();
		employeeAddress.setCity("XYZ");
		employeeAddress.setState("ABC");
		employee.setAddress(employeeAddress);

		EntityTransaction transaction = entityManager.getTransaction();
		try {
			transaction.begin();
			entityManager.persist(employee);
			transaction.commit();
			entityManager.clear();
			employee = entityManager.find(Employee.class, new Long(1));
			employeeAddress = entityManager.find(EmployeeAddress.class, new Long(1));
			System.out.println("Fetched Employee : " + employee);
			System.out.println("Employee Inside Employee Address : " + employeeAddress.getEmployee());
		} catch (Exception e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
			transaction.rollback();
		} finally {
			entityManager.close();
		}
	}
}

N.B. If you don’t clear your EntityManager as done in line 27 above, it will fetch result from the cache and not going to get you something from database.

And we are done, pom.xml will remain the same as in earlier post, so is persistence.xml.
