Hibernate Built-in criterion "between" Integer

In this tutorial you will learn about how to use the built-in criterion ' between ' with the integer values.

Hibernate provides the facility to make a Criteria query restricted. An interface Criterion is responsible for representing a query criterion as an object oriented this query might be used in a Criteria query to make it restricted. However, this interface may be implemented in the class where a custom restriction criteria is to be defined. A class Restrictions is a factory class that provides the built-in criterion.

Example :

Here I am going to give an example of built-in criterion "between" which is provided by the Restrictions factory class. Between criterion applied the between constraint on the specified properties i.e it returns the value between the specified minimum and maximum integer value range. In this example I will fetch the id, name, gender of Employee1 from the table employeename1 between the specified age including low & high range.

Table employeename1

CREATE TABLE `employeename1` ( 
`id` int(10) NOT NULL, 
`name` varchar(15) default NULL, 
`gender` varchar(5) default NULL, 
`age` int(10) default '0', 
PRIMARY KEY (`id`) 
)

Employee1.java

package roseindia;

public class Employee1 {
private int id; 
private String name;
private String gender;
private int age;

public Employee1()
{

}
public Employee1(String name, String gender, int age)
{
this.name = name;
this.gender = gender;
this.age = age;
}
public int getId()
{
return id;
}
public void setId(int id)
{
this.id = id;
}
public String getName()
{
return name;
}
public void setName(String name)
{
this.name = name;
}
public String getGender()
{
return gender;
}
public void setGender(String gender)
{
this.gender = gender;
}
public int getAge()
{
return age;
}
public void setAge(int age)
{
this.age = age;
}
}

}

Output :

table employeename1

When you will execute the java file HibernateBetweenIntegerExample.java ( RightClick -> Run As -> Java Application ) a query and output will be displayed on your console as :
