Hibernate - PropertyNotFoundException: Could not find a getter for

Question

I have a class that looks like the following:

public class MyClass {
    private String dPart1;

    public String getDPart1() {
        return dPart1;
    }

    public void setDPart1(String dPart1) {
        this.dPart1 = dPart1;
    }
}

My hibernate mapping file maps the property as follows:

<property name="dPart1" not-null="true"/>

I get the following error:

org.hibernate.PropertyNotFoundException: Could not find a getter for dPart1 in class com.mypackage.MyClass
        at org.hibernate.property.BasicPropertyAccessor.createGetter(BasicPropertyAccessor.java:282)

It appears that hibernate doesn't like my capitalization. How should I fix this?

<property name="DPart1" not-null="true"/>

should work...

I am also facing the problem and the above solutions works fine for me. Now what I would like to know is is it java specification for setter getter methods or is it jboss specific implementation for hibernate? Thank you for your answer :) – Kumar D Nov 15 '09 at 06:44

for a property called "dPart1" a hibernate will try a getter named "getDpart1" not "getDPart1" IIRC

the capitalization is important. i.e. – emdog4 Mar 23 '12 at 13:14
what if getDPart1 is required? – Jun 28 '17 at 16:07

Can't you just access it like a field?

access="field"

The setter & getter should look like this

getdPart1()
setdPart1(....)

That's how the setters & getters are generated if generated through an IDE like eclipse.

For a property private Integer carId;

the setters and getters should be

getCarId() setCarId(Integer carId)

private String rptausu;

public String getRptausu() {
    return rptausu;
}

public void setRptausu(String rpta) {
    rptausu = rpta;
}

mapping:

        <property name="prtausu" />

works correctly

The naming convention of the property matters example in my own case I initially used

private String newimsi, getNewImsi();

the above failed with same exception

propertynotfoundexception

until I corrected to below before it worked

getNewimsi();

Best Practice is not to create getters/setters by our self but use the Eclipse Shortcut(Alt+Shift+S) to create the same for the variables defined in a bean/pojo.

Naming convention does matters.

From what I've seen, Hibernate (at least version 3.2.4) will expect a property like dPart to have a getter named getdPart: d stays lowercase. Look at dfa's answer as well - I am guessing that other versions might expect getDpart instead.

I got the solution

Please make dPart1 to dpart1 and change the getter and setter again..

It is working for me now.

Remember to change the xml also.
