Q2020. If you are given choice to avoid LazyInitializationException using any of the following measures, which are the ones you will choose and why ?

1. Set lazy=false in the hibernate config file.
2. Set @Basic(fetch=FetchType.EAGER) at the mapping.
3. Make sure that we are accessing the dependent objects before closing the session.
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.

Q2021. What does the following exception means
