Answer 1

you can create a composite primary key in hibernate using @UniqueConstraint annotation.

@Table(name="user_group",uniqueConstraints=@UniqueConstraint(columnNames= {"userId","groupId"}))
public class user_group 
{
       @Column(name="userId")
       private String userId;

       @Column(name="groupId")
       private String group;
}

above method is not feasible if we use spring because for creating composite primary key we have to create a class is not a good thing.
in hibernate and spring you only have to create POJO classes which are available as an entity on your system.
