Hibernate throws MultipleBagFetchException - cannot simultaneously fetch multiple bags

Question

Hibernate throws this exception during SessionFactory creation:

org.hibernate.loader.MultipleBagFetchException: cannot simultaneously fetch multiple b

Answer 1

One good thing about @LazyCollection(LazyCollectionOption.FALSE) is that several fields with this annotation can coexist while FetchType.EAGER cannot, even in the situations where such coexistence is legit.

For example, an Order may have a list of OrderGroup(a short one) as well as a list of Promotions(also short). @LazyCollection(LazyCollectionOption.FALSE) can be used on both without causing LazyInitializationException neither MultipleBagFetchException.

In my case @Fetch did solve my problem of MultipleBacFetchException but then causes LazyInitializationException, the infamous no Session error.
