Hibernate Use

[sireesha]

Hi Every one,
I am learning Hibernate.For this i am following tutorials form different websites.In every tutorial they gave examples for saving data or to update data.I couldn't find any examples for retrieving data(like retrieving a row depending on some condition ) .Now my doubt is,Can't we use hibernate for retrieving data form a table? If we can,how to do that ? what are different operations that we can perform with hibernate ? Can any one please tell me.
Thank q very much,
sireesha.

we can actually, this example is taken from my application:

Code:

        public List<Deposito> getDepositosPaging(int start, int length) {
		Session session = getSession();
		List<Deposito> depositos = (List<Deposito>) session.createQuery("from Deposito where statExist=true order by id ")
				.setFirstResult(start)
				.setMaxResults(length).list();
		
		return depositos;
	}

it retrieve list of Depositos where statExist is true from id=start until id=start+length, ordered by id

To get one object by primary key:
getHibernateTemplate().load(MyObject.class, primaryKey);
for a list using HQL:
getHibernateTemplate().find("from MyObject obj where obj.recordStatus='A' ");
or use the Criteria API which personally I think is awesome
