What's the correct syntax of a JPA insert statement? This might sound like an easy question but I haven't been able to find an answer.
I know how to do it from Java code but I'm looking for a way to insert objects into the database if the database was created.
Any ideas?
You can use the Architecture Repository to insert an entity. Choose the menu item 'Insert Archifact' or 'Insert Entity' on the menubar, and click the class of entity you need in the dialog. Next, you fill in the entities details in the Add New dialog, click OK and you have your entity inserted.
In JPA, we can easily insert data into database through entities. The EntityManager provides persist() method to insert records.
There is no INSERT statement in JPA. You have to insert new entities using an EntityManager. The only statements allowed in JPA are SELECT, UPDATE and DELETE.
Here is a good reference on persisting JPA objects using an EntityManager. As an example, this is how to insert objects using the persist method:
EntityManager em = getEntityManager(); em.getTransaction().begin(); Employee employee = new Employee(); employee.setFirstName("Bob"); Address address = new Address(); address.setCity("Ottawa"); employee.setAddress(address); em.persist(employee); em.getTransaction().commit();
