This exception only happened when Tweet Class was used. I cannot find the reason why I should use Serializable. I did the mapping myself in GeneticMessage.hbm.xml. All the types (long & Date) in Tweet Class are basic type in Hibernate (I think so).

Actually, the problem can be solved by just implementing Serializable for Tweet as mentioned in the Exception. But I still want to know the reason.

Method

Domain domain = (Domain) objects[0];
Query q = session.createQuery("FROM PreprocessedMessage WHERE domain = ?");
q.setEntity(0, domain);
return q.list(); // this line

Exception:

Sorry, I still cannot understand. Is "FROM PreprocessedMessage WHERE domain = ?" a mixed HQL and native SQL queries? I just edited my question to make it clear.Petrie Wong
q.setEntity(0, domain); this line causes the problem. Domain class should be serializable.Gursel Koca
I see your point. But domain is defined in another hbm.xml (which is Domain.hbm.xml, didn't post the code here). And the exception ask me implement Serializable for Tweet?Petrie Wong
Did you figure out why some entities require serializable and some not?Nikhil Sahu

6 years has passed since this question, but here's my 5 cents for those who stumble upon this problem:

It's possible (although I cannot tell it from the config xmls given by the OP) that tweetId is not the primary key of Tweet and that's why it's the only class that requires to be Serializable. It is reported as a bug in Hibernate. (https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-7668).

In Summary: if you want to make a relation between Hibernate objects, just use the primary key as the link column. Otherwise, make the linked object Serializable and that'll work as well. :-)

All parameters in HQL or SQL functions must be Serializable. If it is not, there is certainly also no way for Hibernate to pass it to the database layer.
