Why I have this error trying to use Hibernate Spatial into a Spring Boot project? InstantiationException

Question

I am trying to configure Hibernate Spatial into a Spring Boot project on which I am working and I am finding some problem.

I am using MariaDB (so it is MySql) nd Hibernate was previously corrected configured (I used it for all not GIS functionality without any problem).

I am starting using this tutorial: http://www.hibernatespatial.org/documentation/02-Tutorial/01-tutorial4/

But I am using Hibernate 5 instead Hibernate 4 (I can see that into my External Libraries I have Hibernate 5.0.11) and from what I have understand Hibernate Spatial is nativelly into Hibernate 5.

So, this is my pom.xml content:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

        </plugins>
    </build>

</project>

So, as you can see I have added this dependency:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
    <artifactId>hibernate-spatial</artifactId>
    <version>5.0.2.Final</version>
</dependency>

I think that I need it to have the geographical type as Point (but I am absolutly not sure about it).

Then I have this entity class that map a table:

@Entity
@Table(name = "accomodation")
public class Accomodation implements Serializable {

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    @Column(name = "id")
    private long id;
    //private Integer id;

    /*@ManyToOne
    private Users users;
    */

    @OneToMany(mappedBy = "accomodation")
    private List<Room> rooms;

    private String name;

    @Column(name = "description")
    @Type(type="text")
    private String description;

    @Column(name = "geographical_position")
    @Type(type="org.hibernate.spatial.GeolatteGeometryType")
    private Point location;

    ...........................................................
    ...........................................................
    ...........................................................
    CONSTRUCTOR AND GETTER AND SETTER METHODS

    ...........................................................
    ...........................................................
    ...........................................................
}

In this class I have added this field:

@Column(name = "geographical_position")
@Type(type="org.hibernate.spatial.GeolatteGeometryType")
private Point location;

that should map the field of the database accomodation table having name geographical_position and Point as data type.

On the posted example uses @Type(type="org.hibernate.spatial.GeometryType") instead the GeolatteGeometryType but in my org.hibernate.spatial.* package I have not the GeometryType but I can find this GeolatteGeometryType class (I think that maybe could be a newer implementation provided by Hibernate 5, but I am not sure about it).

When I start my application I obtain the following error message in the staccktrace:

This is also my application.properties configuration file:

hibernate.show_sql:true
hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto:validate

spring.jpa.properties.hibernate.dialect = org.hibernate.dialect.MySQL5Dialect

What is the problem? What am I missing? How can I solve this issue?

Judging from your application.properties you are trying very hard to not use the auto configuration features. Next to that use the correct version of hibernate-spatial use ${hibernate.version} instead of defining a version. — M. Deinum

@M.Deinum what exactly is this "auto configuration features"? — AndreaNobili
– AndreaNobili, Commented Oct 25, 2016 at 13:18
You have things like db.url, hibernate.dialect those aren't used/utilized by Spring Boot so you must be configuring things manually instead of letting Spring Boot auto configure a DataSource and EntitymanagerFactory. Regardless of this, I suspect that you are using the wrong version and as mentioned use ${hibernate.version} in the version field to get the matching version for the hibernate version in use. Use @Type("geolatte_geometry") instead of what you have now. — M. Deinum
– M. Deinum, Commented Oct 25, 2016 at 13:23
@M.Deinum So I have imported the Hibernate Spatial 5.0.11 (the same of the used Hibernate version) but I obtain the same error: Caused by: java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: org.hibernate.spatial.GeolatteGeometryType.<init>() — AndreaNobili
– AndreaNobili, Commented Oct 25, 2016 at 13:27
Read my comment... You shouldn't be using that, use @Type("geolatte_geometry") instead of what you have now (as explained in the reference guide). — M. Deinum

Here is simple example(Adding for future references) to use hibernate spatial with Spring-boot.

Add spring-boot-starter-data-jpa, hibernate-spatial and mydql connector maven dependencies.

        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-data-jpa</artifactId>
        </dependency>

        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
            <artifactId>hibernate-spatial</artifactId>
            <version>${hibernate.version}</version>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>mysql</groupId>
            <artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
            <scope>runtime</scope>
        </dependency>

create Entity class.

@Entity
public class KSpatial implements Serializable {

    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue
    private int spId;
    private int roadId;
    private Point<G2D> currentPosition;
    //getters and setters

}

DAO Impl

@Repository
public class KpSpatialDaoImpl implements KpSpatialDao{

    @Autowired
    private EntityManagerFactory emf;

    private SessionFactory sf;

    @PostConstruct
    public void init() {
        sf = emf.unwrap(SessionFactory.class);
    }

    @Override
    @Transactional
    public boolean add(KpSpatial add) {
        final Session session = sf.getCurrentSession(); 
        session.save(add);
        return true;
    }

    @Override
    @Transactional
    public List<KpSpatial> list() {
        final Session session = sf.getCurrentSession(); 
        return session.createQuery("from KpSpatial", KpSpatial.class).getResultList();
    }

}

Finally application.properties file.

spring.datasource.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/my_spatial
spring.datasource.username=test
spring.datasource.password=test123
spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=create-drop
spring.jpa.show-sql=true
spring.jpa.properties.hibernate.dialect=org.hibernate.spatial.dialect.mysql.MySQL56InnoDBSpatialDialect
spring.jpa.properties.hibernate.current_session_context_class=org.springframework.orm.hibernate5.SpringSessionContext

You need to configure a SpatialDialect. The generic Dialects don't expose the spatial functions and spatial types. See the documentation at: http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/orm/5.0/userguide/html_single/Hibernate_User_Guide.html#spatial

Also, you shouldn't need to use any @Type annotation on your class members.
