Struts + Spring + Hibernate integration example

Download this Struts 1.x + Spring + Hibernate example – Struts-Spring-Hibernate-Example.zip

In this tutorials, you will learn how to create a simple customer management (add and select) web application, Maven as project management tool, Struts 1.x as web framework, Spring as dependency injection framework and Hibernate as database ORM framework.

The overall integration architecture is look like following :

Struts (Web page) <---> Spring DI <--> Hibernate (DAO) <---> Database

To integrate all those technologies together, you should..

Integrate Spring with Hibernate with Spring’s “LocalSessionFactoryBean” class.
Integrate Spring with Struts via Spring’s ready make Struts plug-in – “ContextLoaderPlugIn“.

1. Project Structure

This is this final project structure.

2. Table script

Create a customer table to store the customer details.

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `mkyong`.`customer`;
CREATE TABLE  `mkyong`.`customer` (
  `CUSTOMER_ID` BIGINT(20) UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `NAME` VARCHAR(45) NOT NULL,
  `ADDRESS` VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
  `CREATED_DATE` datetime NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`CUSTOMER_ID`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=10 DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

3. Maven details

Define all the Struts, Spring and Hibernate dependency libraries in pom.xml.
pom.xml

4. Hibernate

Nothing much need to configure in Hibernate, just declare a customer XML mapping file and model.
Customer.hbm.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-mapping PUBLIC 
"-//Hibernate/Hibernate Mapping DTD 3.0//EN"
"http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/hibernate-mapping-3.0.dtd">
<hibernate-mapping>
    <class name="com.mkyong.customer.model.Customer" 
        table="customer" catalog="mkyong">
 
        <id name="customerId" type="long">
            <column name="CUSTOMER_ID" />
            <generator class="identity" />
        </id>
        <property name="name" type="string">
            <column name="NAME" length="45" not-null="true" />
        </property>
        <property name="address" type="string">
            <column name="ADDRESS" not-null="true" />
        </property>
        <property name="createdDate" type="timestamp">
            <column name="CREATED_DATE" length="19" not-null="true" />
        </property>
    </class>
</hibernate-mapping>

Customer.java

package com.mkyong.customer.model;
 
import java.util.Date;
 
public class Customer implements java.io.Serializable {
 
	private long customerId;
	private String name;
	private String address;
	private Date createdDate;
 
	//getter and setter methods
 
}

5. Spring

Spring’s beans declaration for Business Object (BO) and Data Access Object (DAO). The DAO class (CustomerDaoImpl.java) is extends Spring’s “HibernateDaoSupport” class to access the Hibernate function easily.
CustomerBean.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
	xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
	xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans 
	http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-2.5.xsd">
 
   	<bean id="customerBo" 
                class="com.mkyong.customer.bo.impl.CustomerBoImpl" >
   		<property name="customerDao" ref="customerDao" />
   	</bean>
 
   	<bean id="customerDao" 
                class="com.mkyong.customer.dao.impl.CustomerDaoImpl" >
   		<property name="sessionFactory" ref="sessionFactory"></property>
   	</bean>
 
</beans>

CustomerBo.java

package com.mkyong.customer.bo;
 
import java.util.List;
 
import com.mkyong.customer.model.Customer;
 
public interface CustomerBo{
 
	void addCustomer(Customer customer);
 
	List<Customer> findAllCustomer();
 
}

CustomerBoImpl.java

package com.mkyong.customer.bo.impl;
 
import java.util.List;
 
import com.mkyong.customer.bo.CustomerBo;
import com.mkyong.customer.dao.CustomerDao;
import com.mkyong.customer.model.Customer;
 
public class CustomerBoImpl implements CustomerBo{
 
	CustomerDao customerDao;
 
	public void setCustomerDao(CustomerDao customerDao) {
		this.customerDao = customerDao;
	}
 
	public void addCustomer(Customer customer){
 
		customerDao.addCustomer(customer);
 
	}
 
	public List<Customer> findAllCustomer(){
 
		return customerDao.findAllCustomer();
	}
}

CustomerDao.java

package com.mkyong.customer.dao;
 
import java.util.List;
 
import com.mkyong.customer.model.Customer;
 
public interface CustomerDao{
 
	void addCustomer(Customer customer);
 
	List<Customer> findAllCustomer();
 
}

CustomerDaoImpl.java

package com.mkyong.customer.dao.impl;
 
import java.util.Date;
import java.util.List;
 
import com.mkyong.customer.dao.CustomerDao;
import com.mkyong.customer.model.Customer;
import org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.support.HibernateDaoSupport;
 
public class CustomerDaoImpl extends 
       HibernateDaoSupport implements CustomerDao{
 
	public void addCustomer(Customer customer){
 
		customer.setCreatedDate(new Date());
		getHibernateTemplate().save(customer);
 
	}
 
	public List<Customer> findAllCustomer(){
 
		return getHibernateTemplate().find("from Customer");
 
	}
}

6. Spring + Hibernate

Declare the database details and integrate Spring and Hibernate together via “LocalSessionFactoryBean“.
database.properties

jdbc.driverClassName=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
jdbc.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/mkyong
jdbc.username=root
jdbc.password=password

DataSource.xml

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-2.5.xsd">
 
 <bean 
   class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer">
   <property name="location">
     <value>WEB-INF/classes/config/database/properties/database.properties</value>
   </property>
</bean>
 
  <bean id="dataSource" 
         class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerDataSource">
	<property name="driverClassName" value="${jdbc.driverClassName}" />
	<property name="url" value="${jdbc.url}" />
	<property name="username" value="${jdbc.username}" />
	<property name="password" value="${jdbc.password}" />
  </bean>
 
</beans>

HibernateSessionFactory.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-2.5.xsd">
 
<!-- Hibernate session factory -->
<bean id="sessionFactory" 
     class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.LocalSessionFactoryBean">
 
    <property name="dataSource">
      <ref bean="dataSource"/>
    </property>
 
    <property name="hibernateProperties">
       <props>
         <prop key="hibernate.dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect</prop>
         <prop key="hibernate.show_sql">true</prop>
       </props>
    </property>
 
    <property name="mappingResources">

          <value>com/mkyong/customer/hibernate/Customer.hbm.xml</value>
	</list>
     </property>	
 
</bean>
</beans>

SpringBeans.xml

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-2.5.xsd">
 
	<!-- Database Configuration -->
	<import resource="config/database/spring/DataSource.xml"/>
	<import resource="config/database/spring/HibernateSessionFactory.xml"/>
 
	<!-- Beans Declaration -->
	<import resource="com/mkyong/customer/spring/CustomerBean.xml"/>
 
</beans>

7. Struts + Spring

To integrate Spring with Struts, you need to registering a Spring’s build-in Struts plug-in “ContextLoaderPlugIn” in struts-config.xml file. In Action class, it have to extends the Spring’s “ActionSupport” class, and you can get the Spring bean via getWebApplicationContext().

AddCustomerAction.java

package com.mkyong.customer.action;
 
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
 
import org.apache.commons.beanutils.BeanUtils;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionForm;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionForward;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionMapping;
import org.springframework.web.struts.ActionSupport;
 
import com.mkyong.customer.bo.CustomerBo;
import com.mkyong.customer.form.CustomerForm;
import com.mkyong.customer.model.Customer;
 
public class AddCustomerAction extends ActionSupport{
 
public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping mapping,ActionForm form,
	HttpServletRequest request,HttpServletResponse response) 
        throws Exception {
 
	CustomerBo customerBo =
 	  (CustomerBo) getWebApplicationContext().getBean("customerBo");
 
	CustomerForm customerForm = (CustomerForm)form;
	Customer customer = new Customer();
 
	//copy customerform to model
	BeanUtils.copyProperties(customer, customerForm);
 
	//save it
	customerBo.addCustomer(customer);
 
	return mapping.findForward("success");
 
  }
}

ListCustomerAction.java

package com.mkyong.customer.action;
 
import java.util.List;
 
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
 
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionForm;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionForward;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionMapping;
import org.apache.struts.action.DynaActionForm;
import org.springframework.web.struts.ActionSupport;
 
import com.mkyong.customer.bo.CustomerBo;
import com.mkyong.customer.model.Customer;
 
public class ListCustomerAction extends ActionSupport{
 
  public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping mapping,ActionForm form,
	HttpServletRequest request,HttpServletResponse response) 
        throws Exception {
 
	CustomerBo customerBo =
	  (CustomerBo) getWebApplicationContext().getBean("customerBo");
 
	DynaActionForm dynaCustomerListForm = (DynaActionForm)form;
 
	List<Customer> list = customerBo.findAllCustomer();
 
	dynaCustomerListForm.set("customerList", list);
 
	return mapping.findForward("success");
 
  }
}

CustomerForm.java

package com.mkyong.customer.form;
 
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
 
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionErrors;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionForm;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionMapping;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionMessage;
 
public class CustomerForm extends ActionForm {
 
	private String name;
	private String address;
 
	//getter and setter, basic validation
 
}

Customer.properties

#customer module label message
customer.label.name = Name
customer.label.address = Address
 
customer.label.button.submit = Submit
customer.label.button.reset = Reset
 
#customer module error message
customer.err.name.required = Name is required
customer.err.address.required = Address is required

ardi priasa February 19, 2013 at 12:09 pm
Thank you for articel.This working if I change pom.xml

Mkyong,
Thank you very much for being so kind. Its an excellent tutorial. Dont be discouraged by some complaints here. Actually the whole idea of Spring Integration is matured and in evolving nature. A newbie to Java cant get it straight away working. I have tried to delpoy this app. in MyEclipse. Lot of learning. Yes there are several issues, like asm.jar etc. But then in the end you see INTEGRATION that is enterprise-wide.
Thank you very much, once again.
- mkyong February 8, 2013 at 11:17 am
  Thanks for your kind comment, I’m planing to upgrade the whole series of Spring tutorials soon, hope it getting better and clear :)

Hi thanks for the tutorial.
I was able to get this working along with the spring security tutorial.
Can you please let me know how to configure connection pool with this in a tomcat env.
Thanks,

I am trying to understand this project .Hope this all works.My questions are why do i have to write the CUSTOMER BEAN where does this help?Why do i have to create the customerBo where this help and why do i have to create the customerDao it’s the same with customerBo.
Why is this happenig?
john October 5, 2012 at 8:47 pm
Complete waste of time like all the others your code is not working Right. If i have to spend 20 Hours in something that after i have read it i have to spend other 20 hours to debug it IT IS COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME .

  Thanks in advance for your support.

Hi All,
I have tried follow all the suggested ways here in order to get rid of the error
Caused by: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.objectweb.asm.ClassWriter.(I)V
at net.sf.cglib.core.DebuggingClassWriter.(DebuggingClassWriter.java:47)
at net.sf.cglib.core.DefaultGeneratorStrategy.getClassWriter(DefaultGeneratorStrategy.java:30)

but failed completely. Have made the following changes to the original pom.xml
ADDED

&lt;dependency&gt;
			&lt;groupId&gt;asm&lt;/groupId&gt;
			&lt;artifactId&gt;asm-all&lt;/artifactId&gt;
			&lt;version&gt;2.2.3&lt;/version&gt;
		&lt;/dependency&gt;
		&lt;dependency&gt;

			&lt;artifactId&gt;cglib-nodep&lt;/artifactId&gt;
			&lt;version&gt;2.1_3&lt;/version&gt;
		&lt;/dependency&gt;

MODIFIED

&lt;dependency&gt;
			&lt;groupId&gt;org.hibernate&lt;/groupId&gt;
			&lt;artifactId&gt;hibernate&lt;/artifactId&gt;
			&lt;version&gt;3.2.7.ga&lt;/version&gt;
			&lt;exclusions&gt;
				&lt;exclusion&gt;
					&lt;groupId&gt;asm&lt;/groupId&gt;
					&lt;artifactId&gt;asm&lt;/artifactId&gt;
				&lt;/exclusion&gt;
				&lt;exclusion&gt;
					&lt;groupId&gt;asm&lt;/groupId&gt;
					&lt;artifactId&gt;asm-attrs&lt;/artifactId&gt;
				&lt;/exclusion&gt;
				&lt;exclusion&gt;
					&lt;groupId&gt;cglib&lt;/groupId&gt;
					&lt;artifactId&gt;cglib&lt;/artifactId&gt;
				&lt;/exclusion&gt;
			&lt;/exclusions&gt;
		&lt;/dependency&gt;

Could there be any one having an idea on how i can get the example up and running ?

ankit July 9, 2012 at 8:29 pm
hi mkyong… i have imported your jar to the eclipse as a project. but when i am hitting the server with the link http://localhost:8080/StrutsSpringExample/AddCustomerPage.do. then i am getting the 404 error. i think application is not able to map the url with the jsp page add_customer.jsp. any help from you will be very much appreciated. because its first time i am using struts spring and hibernate.
Mal June 26, 2012 at 5:29 pm
Hi Mkyong,
Nice article. Thanks for posting.
I am using Oracle and Weblogic 10.x server.
What should I change if I want to use JDBC/JNDI instead as I have DS setup in my weblogic?
I have changed datasource.xml as below but it seems I am missing something or doing something wrong.
<bean id="dataSource" class="org.springframework.jndi.JndiObjectFactoryBean"> <property name="jndiName"><value>${jdbc.jndi}</value></property> </bean>
Can you provide the datasource.xml?
Thanks

Hi its very useful.. can you please give me the Jar files required to run this project.
becoz i am getting the following problems while configuring.
Unbound classpath variable: ‘M2_REPO/antlr/antlr/2.7.7/antlr-2.7.7.jar’ in project StrutsSpringExample
like the above error i am getting around 33 errors. i think this problem is becoz of jar files missing in the class path. can you please upload all the required jar files or give me the link to download.
thanks in advance.

It is Really helpful to understand the Spring Integration Concepts.
MrHappy April 29, 2011 at 5:32 pm
Yes asm-1.5.3.jar does the problem. You can solve it like this: to pom.xml add:
asm
asm
3.1
and after you did: mvn install go to target directory, enter to war and there delete old asm-1.5.3.jar. New asm-3.1.jar must stay there!
- MrHappy April 29, 2011 at 5:34 pm
  hmm it delete my code:
  <dependency>
  <groupId>asm</groupId>
  <artifactId>asm</artifactId>
  <version>3.1</version>
  </dependency>

  404 means you access an URL which is doesn’t exists, you did configured something wrong, try download the attached example and compare with yours.
  - padmanabha March 23, 2011 at 2:32 pm
    add this dependency to your pom.xml
    asm
    asm
    3.1
    Hibernate depends on asm
    - Shrikant November 7, 2011 at 2:02 am
      Well, this adding asm doesnt solve the 404 error. I have copied the exact thing did the same thing on my mac / as well as my fedora machine.. I was using Tomcat 7.
      What am I missing?
      Any idea ?
      - mkyong November 7, 2011 at 8:53 pm
        see log file or console, is there any error message during your application start up?

org/hibernate/cfg/Configuration is belong to Hibernate library, just include it into your project classpath.
- sumethas July 8, 2010 at 6:13 pm
  After I did from your suggestion. I found another something like below
  Do you have any mentions for error log?
  —————————————————————————————
  SEVERE: Error loading WebappClassLoader delegate: false repositories: /WEB-INF/classes/ ----------> Parent Classloader: org.apache.catalina.loader.StandardClassLoader@f0eed6 org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet at org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.loadClass(WebappClassLoader.java:1354)
  - mkyong July 8, 2010 at 8:10 pm
    Obviously…you do not have the Struts library, please include it in your project classpath. Btw, if you are not familiar with Maven, please use your prefer build tool or copy the dependency libraries manually.

hi mykyong. I have followed your instruction but i still have had a problem like this:
SEVERE: Context initialization failed org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'sessionFactory' defined in ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/classes/config/database/spring/HibernateSessionFactory.xml]: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is org.hibernate.HibernateException: Unable to instantiate default tuplizer [org.hibernate.tuple.entity.PojoEntityTuplizer] ...
What’s this bug?
Please help me!
Thank in advanced!

  you run the attached example and hits this error? It may due to some libraries conflict issues, impossible to blind guess here, would you mind to send me your project via email?
  - loga June 13, 2010 at 9:36 pm
    Hi Mykyong!
    First of all, thanks for your quickly reply!
    I downloaded the attached example and hits this error.
    Additionally, i used maven to get some dependency librarys.
    This is my projests which uploaded to mediarefire with link http://www.mediafire.com/?3yfiw3yznk4.
    Regards!

  Downloaded your project and do a quick test, hits
  Unable to instantiate default tuplizer [org.hibernate.tuple.entity.PojoEntityTuplizer] .... Caused by: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.objectweb.asm.ClassWriter
  Your included library is using ‘asm-1.5.3.jar’, which is quite old and causing the issue, try upgrade to ‘asm-3.1.jar’.
  In my attached project, it will download the ‘asm-3.1.jar’ automatically, wonder why you will get the old asm library? Is you include it manually?
  - loga June 15, 2010 at 5:48 am
    Hi, i upgraded asm-1.5.3.jar to asm-3.1. But it has hit new bug like this:
    INFO: Loading XML bean definitions from ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/classes/SpringBeans.xml]
    Jun 15, 2010 4:41:35 AM org.springframework.web.struts.ContextLoaderPlugIn init
    SEVERE: Context initialization failed
    … [/WEB-INF/classes/SpringBeans.xml]; nested exception is java.io.FileNotFoundException:
    Could not open ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/classes/SpringBeans.xml]
    I tried to fix ix in struts-config.xml but it sill hasn’t run.
    “In my attached project, it will download the ‘asm-3.1.jar’ automatically, wonder why you will get the old asm library? Is you include it manually?”
    I use maven to get all dependency jar files. After that, I copy all file to WEB-INF/lib folder. Have I do it in right way?
    - mkyong June 15, 2010 at 7:46 am
      Obviously, the SpringBeans.xml is not found, resource folder problem. The attached example in this article should working fine, tested. Please compare with yours, or you can configure it easily
      http://www.mkyong.com/maven/how-to-change-maven-resources-folder-location/
      Let Maven handle the dependencies, no point to copy it manually. See below , in case you afraid the dependencies are not deploy correctly in Eclipse debugging environment.

        Hi Mykyong,
        I have downloaded your project example again. And it run.
        In the project which I sent to you, I think that I added wrong dependency jars by hand.
        In old project, i have done like below:
        1.Rownload your project.
        2.run mvn eclipse:eclipse command.
        3.Run the project on tomcat 5.5 server, and it didn’t work.And in WEB-INF folder i added new subfolder name by lib and then, I copy some dependency jar files to that folder(lib). And then, I configure Java Build Path point to lib folder. And I think I had mistake in this step.
        Instead of doing like step 3, I follwed your instruction link to change dependency libraries (http://www.mkyong.com/maven/maven-dependency-libraries-not-deploy-in-eclipse-ide/), after that I restart the workspace. And that’s great, It run.
        -After running it and thinking about the bugs with SpringBean.xml? I have an question that what’s actually address of “/WEB-INF/classes/SpringBeans.xml”. And i found it in D:\SpringProject\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.wst.server.core\tmp0\wtpwebapps\StrutsSpringExample\WEB-INF\classes. It means that when we run the project in server it temporary deploy to a tmp folder in server.
        And i found that why my old project could not run when manually added lib folder as I did.
        –> the problem is that dependency lib directory different from SpringBeans.xml directory (Is it right,Mkyong?)
        Anyway, thanks you alot, hope to see new your tutorial about j2ee.
      - mkyong June 16, 2010 at 10:16 am
        Good to know it work to you.
        Q : “the problem is that dependency lib directory different from SpringBeans.xml directory (Is it right,Mkyong?)”
        A : Not really sure, since i do not have this problem, just make the XML file is exists in the Eclipse “org.eclipse.wst.server.core” plugin folder, it’s where the Eclipse run your project.

      Hi
      I am getting the same error
      Jun 21, 2010 1:44:26 PM org.springframework.web.struts.ContextLoaderPlugIn init SEVERE: Context initialization failed ... org.hibernate.HibernateException: Unable to instantiate default tuplizer [org.hibernate.tuple.entity.PojoEntityTuplizer]
      .. i had a look and found the i am using asm-1.5.3.jar.
      As i am new to maven,can you please let me know how to replace it with asm-3.1.jar as i dont have explicit dependency mentioned in pom for this jar
      - loga June 22, 2010 at 6:31 pm
        Hi Vikas, have you installed maven. You can download it from here http://maven.apache.org/download.html.
        After that try these steps below:
        1.run mvn eclipse:eclipse command.
        2.follow this instruction link to change dependency libraries (http://www.mkyong.com/maven/maven-dependency-libraries-not-deploy-in-eclipse-ide/),
        3.after that restart the workspace
        4.Run project.
        Good luck!
