As part of the 2020.0.0 version of Spring Data, we released Spring Data JDBC 2.1. This article presents the four most interesting changes in this version.

• Use @Value on entity constructor arguments.
• RowMapper and ResultSetExtractor as beans.
• Improved performance for entities.
• Support of Oracles temporal types.

#Use @Value on Entity Constructor Arguments

In some cases, not all the data that goes into an entity comes from the ResultSet of a query. You now may provide an @Value annotation with a SPeL expression that is evaluated, and the result is passed as an argument upon construction of the…

With Spring Data JDBC 2.0, we had to introduce some breaking changes. The goal of this article is to help in the migration process.

TL;DR

1. Use the default letter casing for custom column and table names or quote the names for table generation exactly as used in the annotations.

2. Use AbstractJdbcConfiguration for custom configuration of the application context.

3. Register a Dialect if necessary.

4. Review event-handling code and ensure the data you try to use is not null.

Quoting of Identifiers

Spring Data JDBC 1.x uses table and column names mostly without changing them. This causes…
