To answer this question, we need to understand what the code session.load(Employee.class) does.
In Hibernate, the load() method is used to retrieve an entity object from the database based on its identifier. It returns a proxy object of the requested entity class.
In the given code, Employee.class represents the class of the entity we want to retrieve. The session.load(Employee.class) method retrieves the Employee entity object from the database.
Now, let's go through each option:
Option A) Yes - This option is incorrect. The code session.load(Employee.class) will return a proxy object of the Employee class, not a fully-initialized entity object.
Option B) No - This option is correct. The code session.load(Employee.class) will return a proxy object of the Employee class, not a fully-initialized entity object.
Option C) None - This option is incorrect. The code session.load(Employee.class) will return a proxy object of the Employee class.
Option D) None of the above - This option is incorrect. Option B is the correct answer.
The correct answer is Option B) No. The code session.load(Employee.class) returns a proxy object of the Employee class, not a fully-initialized entity object.
