Question

What I am trying to do is read a text file in the code and insert it into a table called employee1. And I am getting this error:

Hibernate: insert into EMPLOYEE1 (NAME, SALARY, MANAGER, ID) values
(?, ?, ?, ?) identifier of an instance of com.Employee altered from 1
to 2 Exception in thread “main” org.hibernate.HibernateException:
identifier of an instance of com.Employee altered from 1 to 2 at

Code of the Employee.java

public class Employee 
{

    private int id;
    private String name;
    private double salary;
    private String manager;


    public int getId() 
    {
        return id;
    }

    public void setId(int s) 
    {
        id = s;
    }
    //***************************************************//  
    public String getName() 
    {
        return name;
    }

    public void setName(String s) 
    {
        name = s;
    }
    //***************************************************//  
    public double getSalary() 
    {
        return salary;
    }

    public void setSalary(double s) 
    {
        salary = s;
    }
    //***************************************************//
    public String getManager() 
    {
        return manager;
    }

    public void setManager(String s) 
    {
        manager = s;
    }
}

Code of the EmployeeEx.java(exection)

import java.io.File;
import java.util.Scanner;

import org.hibernate.Session;
import org.hibernate.SessionFactory;
import org.hibernate.Transaction;
import org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration;

import com.Employee;

public class EmployeeEx 
{

public static void main(String[] args) 
{
    Session session = null;

    try
    {       
        Transaction transaction = null; 

        SessionFactory sessionFactory = new Configuration().configure().buildSessionFactory();
        session =sessionFactory.openSession();

        Employee em = new Employee();   

        File f=new File("c:/Class/Employee1.txt") ;
        Scanner scan=new Scanner(f);
        transaction = session.beginTransaction();
        while(scan.hasNext())
        {               

            String line=scan.nextLine();            
            String empArray[]=line.split(" ");


            em.setId(Integer.parseInt(empArray[0]));
            em.setName(empArray[1]);
            em.setSalary(Double.parseDouble(empArray[2]));
            em.setManager(empArray[3]);

            session.save(em);
            transaction.commit();
        }


}
catch(Exception e)
{
    System.out.println(e.getMessage());
}
finally
{
    session.flush();
    session.close();

}


}

Effectively you are having just one Employee instance and you are persisting the same one again and again…

Employee em = new Employee();    // Not a right place..

while(scan.hasNext())
{               
   // Employee em = new Employee(); // Should be here...
   em.setId(Integer.parseInt(empArray[0]));
   em.setName(empArray[1]);
   em.setSalary(Double.parseDouble(empArray[2]));
   em.setManager(empArray[3]);
   ....
}
