hibernate - Force lazy loading of usually eager attributes -

how force specific query lazy load attribute, has eager loading? entitygraphtype.fetch isn't working.

@namedentitygraph(name="neggraphname",attributenodes={       @namedattributenode("name"),       @namedattributenode("grup")}) class user{   private string name;      @manytoone   private usergroup grup;    @manytomany(fetch=fetchtype.eager)   protected set<authority> authoritieslist; }  interface userrepository extends crudrepository<string, user>{   @entitygraph(value="neggraphname", type=entitygraphtype.fetch)   @query("<custom query here>")   private collection<user> getusersinspecialquery(@param("paramname") string paramname); } 

basically, when call userrepository.getusersinspecialquery() initial query joins in object, , doesn't join in authority, hibernate anyway initializes authorities list separate sql query per user result, highly inefficient. also, initializes domainobject object graph parent not marked eager.

disabling fetch=fetchtype.eager on authoritylist disabled additional per-user queries, still want eagerly fetched other queries.

entitygraphtype.fetch's javadoc says:

when javax.persistence.fetchgraph property used specify entity graph, attributes specified attribute nodes of entity graph treated fetchtype.eager , attributes not specified treated fetchtype.lazy

however not case me

hibernate : force lazy-loadding on eager field <-- doesn't have solution

fetch type lazy still causes eager loading hibernate spring data <-- claims problem lazy attribute loaded viewing, in case, stepped through in hibernate, , during materialization of user object

you cant make eager assosciation lazy. suggest make lazy , in queries want eagerly join fetch authoritieslist eager then.

another option subentity same current user entity, mapped same db table without relationship dont want:

@entity @table(name="same_table_as_user_entity") class basicuser{   private string name;      @manytoone   private usergroup grup;  } 

another option inheritance.
