JPA SQL Server No Dialect mapping for JDBC type: -9

Question

Iam writing a native query like

Query query = 
  entityManagerUtil.getEntityManager().createNativeQuery("SELECT c.NodeID,c.Code,c.Name FROM COM_Location c");    
query.getResultList();

but it is not working for me....

Iam using JPA , MSSQL Server 2008 with Spring.It is working fine when i try to write JPA queries with pojo classes but it is failing to execute native queries.

My configurations in persistance.xml goes like this

<property name="hibernate.dialect" value="org.hibernate.dialect.SQLServerDialect"/>

Any one suggest me to fix the issuee

My stack trace says...

Answer 1

I also face the same issue, So i do R&D and got solution as Do explicit cast like cast(t2.name as varchar), It works for me.

cast(t2.name as varchar)

Check this url. http://www.coderanch.com/t/565413/ORM/databases/Dialect-mapping-JDBC-type

Answer 2

The type -9 is java.sql.Types.NVARCHAR. Looking at the sources of the SQLServerDialect variants on https://github.com/hibernate/hibernate-orm/tree/master/hibernate-core/src/main/java/org/hibernate/dialect there is no mapping for nvarchar columns.

You might want to try to define your own dialect that also registers various NVARCHAR-like definitions:

public class SQLServer2008DialectWithNvarchar extends SQLServer2008Dialect {
    public SQLServer2008DialectWithNvarchar () {
        registerColumnType( Types.NCLOB, "nvarchar(MAX)" );
        registerColumnType( Types.LONGNVARCHAR, "nvarchar(MAX)" );
        registerColumnType( Types.NVARCHAR, "nvarchar(MAX)" );
        registerColumnType( Types.NVARCHAR, 4000, "nvarchar($1)" );
    }
}

I based this on the definition for VARCHAR in the SQLServer2005Dialect. You may need to put this class in the org.hibernate.dialect package (or at least I seem to remember there are issues if you don't).

NOTE: I haven't actually tested this!
