Does hibernate require persistent classes to implement Serializable

  1. Required

  2. Not Required

  3. Load needs to Implement

  4. None of the Above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Hibernate does NOT require persistent classes to implement Serializable. While implementing Serializable can be useful for caching or transporting objects across layers (like in web sessions), it's not mandatory for basic Hibernate persistence. Hibernate uses reflection and proxy mechanisms that don't depend on serialization.

Multiple choice technology architecture

Encapsulate request as object thereby letting you parameterize clients with different requests, queue or log requests and support undoable operations

  1. Command

  2. Context

  3. Flyweight

  4. Builder
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

The Command pattern encapsulates a request as an object, allowing you to parameterize clients with different requests, queue or log requests, and support undoable operations. This is exactly what the question describes. Context manages external state, Flyweight shares intrinsic state, and Builder constructs complex objects step-by-step.

Avoid coupling of sender of a request to its receiver by giving more than one object a chance to handle the request .Link the receiving object and pass the request along the list until an object handles it

  1. Visitor

  2. Façade

  3. Bridge

  4. Chain of responsibility
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

The Chain of Responsibility pattern avoids coupling the sender of a request to its receiver by giving multiple objects a chance to handle the request. It passes the request along a chain of receiving objects until an object handles it. This pattern is commonly used in logging, event handling, and processing pipelines.

Multiple choice technology architecture

Which pattern hides the underlying implementation details of the business service, such as lookup and access details of the EJB architecture.

  1. Business Delegate

  2. Service Locator

  3. Facade

  4. View Helper
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Business Delegate pattern hides the implementation details of business services, including lookup and access details of EJB architecture. It reduces coupling between presentation tier and business tier.

How can the mapping files be configured in Hibernate?

  1. a) Mapping files can be added to Configuration in the application code

  2. b) They can be configured in hibernate.cfg.xml using the <mapping> elements

  3. c) both a and b

  4. d) none of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Hibernate mapping files can be configured both programmatically via Configuration.addMapping() and declaratively via hibernate.cfg.xml using elements. Both methods are valid and commonly used depending on the setup preference.

HQL is used in ?

  1. a) session.createQuery();

  2. b) session.createCriteria();

  3. c) session.createSQLQuery();

  4. d) session.lod();
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

HQL (Hibernate Query Language) is used through session.createQuery() method. The session.createCriteria() method is for Criteria queries (deprecated in Hibernate 5+), session.createSQLQuery() is for native SQL queries, and session.load() is a retrieval method, not a query creation method.

Does hibernate require persistent classes to implement Serializable?

  1. Required

  2. b) Not Required

  3. c) None of the above

  4. All of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Hibernate does NOT require persistent classes to implement Serializable. However, implementing Serializable becomes necessary in specific scenarios like storing objects in HttpSession, using distributed second-level caches, or when detaching and reattaching objects across different JVMs.

Given the following jsp line select the correct statements: <% public void jspInit() { ...java code...} %>

  1. 1) It is a valid line that can be used to initialize the servlet that implements the jsp file.

  2. 2) It won't compile as no identifer can start with jsp not _jsp.

  3. 3) It will serve as the servlet initialization if the function's name is _jspInit.

  4. 4) There is no way to initialize a jsp's implementation class servlet.
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

The jspInit() method is the correct JSP lifecycle method for initialization. You can declare it in a declaration element <%! ... %> as shown, and the JSP container will call it when the servlet is initialized. Option B is incorrect because identifiers can start with jsp. Option C is wrong because the method name is jspInit(), not _jspInit() (which is for internal implementation details).

What will be printed out if this jsp code? <%! java.util.Locale class1=request.getLocale(); %> <%= class %>

  1. 1) It won't compile.

  2. 2) It will print the default client's Web browser locale.

  3. 3) It will print the default web server Locale.

  4. 4) It will the first language specified in the Accept-Language request's header.
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

The code won't compile because it tries to use the implicit object 'request' inside a declaration <%! ... %>. Declaration elements are for class-level variables and methods, where request (which is method-local in _jspService()) is not accessible. Additionally, there's a variable name mismatch - class1 is declared but class is used. Option A correctly identifies this as a compilation error.

What will be the result of running the following jsp file taking into account that the Web server has just been started and this is the first page loaded by the server? <%= request.getSession(false).getId() %>

  1. 1)It won't compile

  2. 2)It will print the session id.

  3. 3)It will produce a NullPointerException as the getSession(false) method's call returns null, cause no session had been created.

  4. 4)It will produce an empty page.

What are the types returned by the ServletContext method getResource and getResourceAsStream?

  1. 1) ServletContext doesn't have one of these two methods.

  2. 2) String and InputStream

  3. 3) URL and InputStream

  4. 4) URL and StreamReader
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

The ServletContext interface defines getResource(String path), which returns a URL object, and getResourceAsStream(String path), which returns an InputStream object.

You are calling the method HttpServletResponse.sendRedirect(String path) and you want to make sure that the user continues in the same session. How do you that?

  1. 1) By calling the method with an absolute path as the argument

  2. 2) By enconding the path with HttpServletResponse.endcodeURL method

  3. 3) By enconding the path with HttpServletResponse.endcodeRedirectURL method

  4. 4) If you use sendRedirect the session is lost.
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

To maintain a session during a client-side redirect, you must encode the redirect URL using HttpServletResponse.encodeRedirectURL(String url), which appends the session ID if cookies are disabled. encodeURL is used for normal links.

  1. True

  2. False

B Correct answer
Explanation

J2EE applications are not limited to web-based applications only. J2EE (Java Enterprise Edition) supports multiple application types including web applications, application clients, Enterprise JavaBeans, and other distributed enterprise components. The statement is false.

JavaBeans Are J2EE components

  1. True

  2. False
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

JavaBeans are a reusable component model for Java, but they are not specifically J2EE components. JavaBeans can be used in any Java application context. J2EE components include servlets, JSP pages, EJBs, and other enterprise-specific technologies. The statement is false.
