Unable to instantiate default tuplizer

I wrote few hbm mappings for domain classes in my recent project, and I got exception like that:

org.hibernate.HibernateException: Unable to instantiate default tuplizer [org.hibernate.tuple.entity.PojoEntityTuplizer]

Of course my first thought was googling for it and I found interesting answers. Most commons causes of this exception are:

  • missing getters or setters, what’s more, even a typo or wrong letter case (like getParentproject instead of getParentProject when field in class and mapping file is defined as parentProject)
  • missing default constructor
  • missing dependency for javassist library
My files seemed to be correctly defined, so it had to be missing dependency.

To fix it I’ve added these lines to my pom.xml:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.javassist</groupId>
    <artifactId>javassist</artifactId>
    <version>3.18.0-GA</version>
</dependency>

Well, it shouldn’t be a surprise because in full stacktrafe from this error there is an entry:

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javassist.util.proxy.MethodFilter

What explicitly indicates where is the root of this problem ;)

(And BTW: in my recent project I’m stuck with quite old version of Hibernate – 3.6.3)

Distributed scans with HBase

HBase is by design a columnar store, that is optimized for random reads. You just ask for a row using rowId as an identifier and you get your data instantaneously. Performing a scan on part or whole table is a completely different thing. First of all, it is sequential. Meaning it is rather slow, because it doesn't use all the RegionServers at the same time. It is implemented that way to realize the contract of Scan command - which has to return results sorted by key. So, how to do this efficiently?HBase is by design a columnar store, that is optimized for random reads. You just ask for a row using rowId as an identifier and you get your data instantaneously.
