[Hibernate-devel] loading non-existent objects

[Brad C. <bra...@wo...>]

it appears that session.load throws a HibernateException if an object
with the supplied id doesn't exist.  would it be better for hibernate to
throw a different exception in this case (say an ObjectNotFoundException
that extends HibernateException), to differentiate between the object
not existing and some other error?  or is the expectation simply that a
find query is to be used if u r not sure if a particular persisted
object exists?

thanx
