Q2. What does the following exception means

org.hibernate.LazyInitializationException: could not initialize proxy - no Session

Hibernate

Ans. The error states that Hibernate is not able to initialize proxy / dependent entity objects as there is no session or transaction present. Very likely we are trying to load the dependent entities lazily but the call to dependent object property is not wrapped within the session or transaction.

Q3. If you are given choice to avoid LazyInitializationException using any of the following measures, which are the ones you will choose and why ?

2. Set @Basic(fetch=FetchType.EAGER) at the mapping.

4. Force initialization using Hibernate.initialize

Hibernate

Ans. First resolution is a big No as it conveys no lazy loading in complete app. even second is advocating the same but for a particular mapping.

third one is most appropriate if loading and dependent entity property access is closer to each other in code and can be accomplished.

I don't mind using 4th too.
