Spring Framework

Spring CRUD Example using Many to One Mapping

In this example show how to write a simple web based application with CRUD operation using Spring3 MVC Framwork with Hibernate3 using Annotation handling more than two database tables many to one relationship, which can handle CRUD inside its controllers. To start with it, let us have working STS IDE in place and follow the following steps to develop a Dynamic Form based Web Application using Spring Web Framework:

Step 1: Create a Database DOJDB on MySql Database and also we create Survey, Question and Answer tables on this database.
 Survey Table

CREATE TABLE `survey` (
  `SURVEY_ID` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `END_DATE` datetime DEFAULT NULL,
  `START_DATE` datetime DEFAULT NULL,
  `STATUS` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
  `SURVEY_NAME` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`SURVEY_ID`)
)

  Question Table

CREATE TABLE `questions` (
  `QUESTION_ID` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `QUESTION` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
  `SURVEY_ID` int(11) DEFAULT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`QUESTION_ID`),
  KEY `FK95C5414DD76DB9F3` (`SURVEY_ID`),
  CONSTRAINT `FK95C5414DD76DB9F3` FOREIGN KEY (`SURVEY_ID`) REFERENCES `survey` (`SURVEY_ID`)
)

Answer Table

CREATE TABLE `answer` (
  `Answer_ID` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `Answer` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
  `Question_ID` int(11) DEFAULT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`Answer_ID`),
  KEY `FKABCA3FBEE2FF2433` (`Question_ID`),
  CONSTRAINT `FKABCA3FBEE2FF2433` FOREIGN KEY (`Question_ID`) REFERENCES `questions` (`QUESTION_ID`)
)

Step 2: Create a config.properties for database configuration information in the resources folder under src folder in the created project.

# database properties
#app.jdbc.driverClassName=oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
#app.jdbc.url=jdbc:oracle:thin:@192.168.2.104:1521:orcl
#app.jdbc.username=hyundaisrv
#app.jdbc.password=hyundaisrv

#hibernate properties
#hibernate.config=/WEB-INF/hibernate.cfg.xml


################### JDBC Configuration ##########################
#jdbc.driverClassName=oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
jdbc.driverClassName=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
jdbc.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/DOJDB
jdbc.username=root
jdbc.password=root

#jdbc.driverClassName=org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver
#jdbc.url=jdbc:hsqldb:file:db/SivaLabsDB;shutdown=true
#jdbc.username=sa
#jdbc.password=

################### Hibernate Configuration #########################
#hibernate.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.OracleDialect
hibernate.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect
hibernate.show_sql=true
hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto=update
hibernate.generate_statistics=true

Step 3: Create a Dynamic Web Project with a name “Survey Status” and create packages com.dineshonjava.survey.bean, com.dineshonjava.survey.Controller, com.dineshonjava.survey.dao, com.dineshonjava.survey.service, com.dineshonjava.survey.utils under the src folder in the created project.

 Step 4: Add below mentioned Spring 3.0 and Hibernate 3.0 related libraries and other libraries into the folder WebRoot/WEB-INF/lib.

Step 5: Create a Java class SurveyController, Survey, Question, Answer, SurveyDao, SurveyDaoImpl, QuestionDao, QuestionDaoImpl, AnswerDao, AnswerDaoImpl under the respective packages..

 Step 6: Create Spring configuration files web.xml and doj-servlet.xml under the WebRoot/WEB-INF/ and WebRoot/WEB-INF/config folders.

 Step 7: Create a sub-folder with a name views under the WebRoot/WEB-INF folder. Create a view file editSurvey.jsp
home.jsp,newSurvey.jsp,showSurvey.jsp,SurveyHomeScreen.jsp,taglib_includes.jsp,viewSurvey.jsp under this sub-folder.

 Step 8: The final step is to create the content of all the source and configuration files name doj-servlet.xml under the sub-folder /WebRoot/WEB-INF/config and export the application as explained below.
