+description: >
+Verify and set up the codebase-memory MCP server for Grails-Core architectural navigation.
+Use this skill at the start of any Grails-Core session to detect whether the MCP server is
+active, prompt the user to install it if missing, and provide step-by-step configuration
+instructions. Trigger whenever working with grails-core and MCP tool availability is unknown,
+or when the user asks about faster codebase navigation, architectural mode, or MCP setup.
+---
+
+# Codebase Memory MCP: Environment Verification & Setup
+
+This skill governs how to verify, onboard, and configure the `codebase-memory` MCP server when
+working in the Grails-Core repository. It enables "Architectural Mode" — a significantly faster
+mode of codebase navigation using graph-based memory tools.
+
+---
+
+## Step 1: Detect Operating Mode (Mandatory on Load)
+
+Before doing anything else, check your available tool definitions for the presence of any of
+these tools:
+
+- `index_repository`
+- `search_graph`
+- `trace_call_path`
+- `query_graph`
+
+| Condition | Mode |
+|---|---|
+| Tools **present** | **Architectural Mode** — proceed normally |
+| Tools **absent** | **Standard Mode** — proceed to Step 2 |
+
+---
+
+## Step 2: Proactive Onboarding (Standard Mode Only)
+
+If the MCP server is **not** detected, interrupt the current flow (unless addressing a critical
+fix) and present the following message to the user:
+
+> "I've detected that this repository is optimized for **Codebase Memory MCP**, which allows me
+> to navigate the Grails-Core architecture 90% faster. However, the server is not currently
+> running in your environment. Would you like me to help you install it now?"
+
+Wait for the user's response before continuing.
+
+---
+
+## Step 3: Installation (If User Approves)
+
+The package ships as a **static binary** (not npm). Use the appropriate one-liner for the user's
+platform, or run it yourself if you have shell access.
+
+**macOS / Linux (bash):**
+
+```bash
+curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DeusData/codebase-memory-mcp/main/install.sh | bash
+```
+
+**Windows (PowerShell):**
+
+```powershell
+irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DeusData/codebase-memory-mcp/main/scripts/setup-windows.ps1 | iex
+```
+
+Both scripts download the correct binary for the platform, place it on the PATH, and run
+`codebase-memory-mcp install` to auto-configure all detected agents (Claude Code, Zed, Cursor,
+etc.) in one step.
+
+> **Note:** `npm install -g codebase-memory-mcp` will not work — ignore any documentation
+> suggesting this.
+
+After the script completes, restart the agent environment.
+
+### Index the Repository
+
+Once the server is active, index grails-core by telling the agent:
+
+```
+"Index this project"
+```
+
+The agent will call `index_repository` and build the knowledge graph automatically.
+
+---
+
+## Step 4: Verify Activation
+
+Confirm that `index_repository`, `search_graph`, `trace_call_path`, and `query_graph` are now
+available. If they are, **Architectural Mode** is active — proceed with the original task.
+
+If tools are still missing, ask the user to confirm the install script completed without errors
+and that the agent environment was fully restarted.

+description: Guide for working in the grails-data-hibernate7 module, especially Hibernate 7 domain binding, mapping migration, generators, and integration tests. Use this when changing code or tests under grails-data-hibernate7.

+
+## What I Do
+
+- Provide repository-specific guidance for the `grails-data-hibernate7` project.
+- Help with Hibernate 7 migration work in domain binding, mapping metadata, identifiers, generators, collections, and second-pass binding.
+- Guide changes around `GrailsDomainBinder`, `GrailsPropertyBinder`, `IdentityBinder`, `VersionBinder`, collection binders, and related utilities.
+- Keep changes aligned with the testing constraints and migration status documented in `grails-data-hibernate7/AGENTS.md`.
+
+## When to Use Me
+
+Activate this skill when working on the Hibernate 7 module, especially for:
+
+- Changes under `grails-data-hibernate7/**`.
+- Hibernate 7 mapping and metadata binding work.
+- Identifier, version, collection, association, or generator binding changes.
+- Hibernate 7 regression fixes and migration follow-up tasks.
+- Specs that exercise Hibernate-backed mapping behavior rather than lightweight unit behavior.
+
+## Module Context
+
+This skill is for the Grails framework's Hibernate 7 integration module, not for a Grails application. Prefer guidance from this skill over generic Grails app patterns when working in `grails-data-hibernate7`.
+
+`GrailsDomainBinder` is the main entry point for binding Grails domain classes to Hibernate metadata. Changes often ripple through:
+
+- `org.grails.orm.hibernate.cfg`
+- `org.grails.orm.hibernate.cfg.domainbinding`
+- `org.grails.orm.hibernate.cfg.domainbinding.collectionType`
+- `org.grails.orm.hibernate.cfg.domainbinding.secondpass`
+- `org.grails.orm.hibernate.cfg.domainbinding.generator`
+
+## Key Classes and Responsibilities
+
+### Main Binding Flow
+
+- `GrailsDomainBinder`: central coordinator for Hibernate 7 mapping contribution.
+- `GrailsPropertyBinder`: main coordinator for converting persistent properties into Hibernate `Value` instances.
+- `PropertyFromValueCreator`: shared utility for creating Hibernate `Property` instances from a bound `Value`.
+
+### Identifier and Version Binding
+
+- `IdentityBinder`: coordinates identifier binding.
+- `SimpleIdBinder`: handles simple identifiers.
+- `CompositeIdBinder`: handles composite identifiers.
+- `VersionBinder`: binds optimistic locking version properties.
+- `NaturalIdentifierBinder`: binds `naturalId` properties.
+
+### Associations and Collections
+
+- `OneToOneBinder`, `ManyToOneBinder`, `ManyToOneValuesBinder`: association binding.
+- `CollectionBinder`: collection mapping.
+- `CollectionSecondPassBinder`, `ListSecondPassBinder`, `MapSecondPassBinder`: second-pass association and collection binding.
+- `CollectionHolder` plus the collection type classes: carry collection metadata through binding.
+
+### Value and Column Binding
+
+- `SimpleValueBinder`: binds simple properties.
+- `SimpleValueColumnBinder`: binds columns to simple values.
+- `ComponentBinder`, `ComponentPropertyBinder`: embedded/component binding.
+- `EnumTypeBinder`: enum mapping.
+
+### Generators
+
+- `BasicValueCreator`: creates identifier values and generators.
+- `GrailsSequenceWrapper`, `GrailsSequenceGeneratorEnum`: generator integration helpers.
+- `GrailsIdentityGenerator`, `GrailsIncrementGenerator`, `GrailsNativeGenerator`, `GrailsSequenceStyleGenerator`, `GrailsTableGenerator`: Grails-specific Hibernate 7 generator implementations.
+
+## Current Module Guidance
+
+Keep these module-specific expectations in mind:
+
+- `GrailsPropertyBinder` has already been simplified to a unified binder-dispatch structure. Preserve that consolidation instead of reintroducing scattered property creation or ad hoc branching.
+- Property creation and addition should stay centralized through callers using `PropertyFromValueCreator` where applicable.
+- Utility classes in `domainbinding.util` should prefer Hibernate-aware GORM types internally, but public signatures may still need base interfaces when Spock mocks require them.
+- `GrailsIncrementGenerator` still contains reflection-based Hibernate 7 compatibility workarounds; avoid broad refactors unless the change explicitly addresses that area.
+
+## Testing Rules
+
+When touching `grails-data-hibernate7`, test through real Hibernate wiring rather than assuming mocks are enough.
+
+- Use `HibernateGormDatastoreSpec` for Hibernate 7 integration and domain-binding specifications.
+- Prefer `manager.addAllDomainClasses([...])` in `setupSpec()` to register entities for specs.
+- Define test entities as top-level classes in the same Groovy spec file.
+- Ensure test domain class names are globally unique within the package to avoid collisions during parallel execution.
+- Prefer real entities over heavy mocking for binder logic.
+
+## Change Workflow
+
+1. Identify which binder, creator, generator, fetcher, or second-pass class owns the behavior.
+2. Trace whether the change affects only `Value` creation, `Property` creation, or both.
+3. Preserve the existing separation between logical mapping decisions and Hibernate object construction.
+4. Update or add specs in `grails-data-hibernate7` that exercise the affected behavior through the public Hibernate-backed path.
+5. Run the relevant Hibernate 7 module tests, and expand test coverage when binder flow or entity registration behavior changes.
+
+## Pitfalls to Avoid
+
+- Do not treat this module like a simple Grails application layer; it is framework and mapping infrastructure code.
+- Do not reintroduce duplicated property-creation logic if a shared binder or creator already owns it.
+- Do not rely on unit-only mocking for Hibernate internals when the behavior depends on real metadata binding.
+- Do not use nested or inner entity classes in Hibernate 7 specs when top-level classes are required for AST transforms and reliable registration.
+
+## Known Status and Constraints
+
+- The Hibernate 7 binder migration is largely in migrated state across the main binders, collection types, second-pass binders, generators, and utilities.
+- Unidirectional many-to-many support in `CollectionSecondPassBinder` is implemented.
+- `GrailsIncrementGenerator` reflection hacks remain a known temporary compromise until a later Hibernate upgrade removes the need.
+
+## Source of Truth
+
+This skill is derived from `grails-data-hibernate7/AGENTS.md`. When the module guidance changes, update this skill so agents can load the same rules directly from `.agents/skills/hibernate-developer/SKILL.md`.

+
+## What I Do
+
+- Explain how `GrailsCodeStylePlugin` enforces code quality across all 60+ modules via a single aggregation task.
+- Guide you through running style checks, interpreting the per-tool Markdown violation reports, and fixing each class of violation.
+- Describe which tools are always-on vs. opt-in, how to configure them via Gradle properties, and which violations can be auto-fixed.
+
+## When to Use Me
+
+Activate this skill when:
+
+- Running `./gradlew aggregateStyleViolations` and interpreting the resulting `*_VIOLATIONS.md` files.
+- Fixing CodeNarc, Checkstyle, PMD, SpotBugs, or Spotless violations reported in those files.
+- Configuring code style tools across the repo (enabling/disabling tools or adjusting rule files).
+- Preparing a commit — the plugin output must be clean before merging.
+
+---
+
+## Plugin Overview
+
+`GrailsCodeStylePlugin` is applied to **every** subproject via the `org.apache.grails.gradle.grails-code-style` plugin ID. It:
+
+1. Applies CodeNarc, Checkstyle, and (optionally) PMD, SpotBugs, Spotless, and JaCoCo.
+2. Redirects all XML reports to a **shared** directory (`build/codestyle/<tool>/`) so they are visible from the root.
+3. Registers a per-project `codeStyle` task and a root `aggregateStyleViolations` task.
+4. Writes aggregated Markdown violation files to the repo root.
+
+---
+
+## Key Tasks
+
+| Task | Scope | Description |
+|------|-------|-------------|
+| `./gradlew codeStyle` | per-project | Runs all enabled style checks for that project |
+| `./gradlew aggregateStyleViolations` | root | Runs all checks across every module, then writes `*_VIOLATIONS.md` |
+| `./gradlew codenarcFix` | per-project | Auto-fixes a subset of CodeNarc violations |
+
+### Quick commands
+
+```bash
+# Check a single module
+./gradlew :grails-core:codeStyle
+
+# Full multi-module check + report
+./gradlew aggregateStyleViolations
+
+# Skip style in tests (default); include test sources
+./gradlew aggregateStyleViolations -Pgrails.codestyle.enabled.tests=true
+
+# Ignore failures (collect reports without failing the build)
+./gradlew aggregateStyleViolations -Pgrails.codestyle.ignoreFailures=true
+
+# Auto-fix some CodeNarc violations before running checks
+./gradlew codenarcFix codeStyle
+```
+
+---
+
+## Output Files
+
+After running `aggregateStyleViolations`, these files appear in the repo root:
+
+| File | Tool | Always generated |
+|------|------|-----------------|
+| `CODENARC_VIOLATIONS.md` | CodeNarc | Yes |
+| `CHECKSTYLE_VIOLATIONS.md` | Checkstyle | Yes |
+| `PMD_VIOLATIONS.md` | PMD | Yes — may contain `No violations found!` when `grails.codestyle.enabled.pmd=false` |
+| `SPOTBUGS_VIOLATIONS.md` | SpotBugs | Yes — may contain `No violations found!` when `grails.codestyle.enabled.spotbugs=false` |
+| `JACOCO_COVERAGE_VIOLATIONS.md` | JaCoCo | Only if `grails.codestyle.enabled.jacoco=true` |
+
+Each file is a Markdown table grouped by module, with columns: **Class**, **Tool**, **Violation**, **Line**, **Message**.
+
+A clean run produces `No violations found! 🎉` in each file. **A commit must not include any violations.**
+
+---
+
+## Tool Details
+
+### CodeNarc (Groovy — always enabled)
+
+Rule file: `build/codestyle/codenarc/codenarc.groovy` (generated by the plugin under `build/codestyle/...` during setup; it may be overwritten and is not intended to be edited directly).
+
+Most common violations and how to fix them:
+
+| Rule | Fix |
+|------|-----|
+| `UnnecessaryGString` | Replace `"plain string"` with `'plain string'` |
+| `UnnecessarySemicolon` | Remove trailing `;` |
+| `SpaceBeforeOpeningBrace` | Add space before `{` → `method() {` |
+| `SpaceAroundMapEntryColon` | `[key: value]` not `[key:value]` |
+| `ConsecutiveBlankLines` | Collapse 3+ blank lines to 2 |
+| `ClassStartsWithBlankLine` | Remove blank line right after `class Foo {` |
+| `NoWildcardImports` | Expand `import org.foo.*` to explicit imports |
+| `UnusedImport` | Remove imports not referenced in the file |
+| `MethodName` | Method names must be camelCase (not `snake_case`) |
+| `VariableName` | Variable names must be camelCase |
+| `LineLength` | Keep lines ≤ 200 chars (default) |
+
+Auto-fixable via `codenarcFix`: `ClassStartsWithBlankLine`, `SpaceAroundMapEntryColon`, `UnnecessaryGString`, `UnnecessarySemicolon`, `SpaceBeforeOpeningBrace`, `ConsecutiveBlankLines`.
+
+### Checkstyle (Java — always enabled)
+
+Rule file: `build/codestyle/checkstyle/checkstyle.xml`.
+
+Common violations:
+
+| Rule | Fix |
+|------|-----|
+| `ImportOrder` | Re-order imports: `java|javax`, then `groovy`, then `jakarta`, then blank, then `io.spring|org.springframework`, then `grails|org.apache.grails|org.grails`, then static imports |
+| `AvoidStarImport` | Use explicit class imports |
+| `UnusedImports` | Remove unused imports |
+| `WhitespaceAround` | Add spaces around operators and keywords |
+| `NeedBraces` | Add `{}` to single-statement `if`/`for`/`while` |
+| `FileTabCharacter` | Replace tabs with 4 spaces |
+| `NewlineAtEndOfFile` | Ensure file ends with `\n` |
+
+### PMD (Java/Groovy — opt-in)
+
+Enable: `-Pgrails.codestyle.enabled.pmd=true`
+
+Rule file: `build/codestyle/pmd/pmd.xml`.
+
+### SpotBugs (Java bytecode — opt-in)
+
+Enable: `-Pgrails.codestyle.enabled.spotbugs=true`
+
+Runs at `Effort.MAX` / `Confidence.HIGH`. Only high-confidence bugs are reported.
+
+### Spotless (Java auto-formatting — opt-in)
+
+Enable: `-Pgrails.codestyle.enabled.spotless=true`
+
+Uses Palantir Java Format. Can auto-fix by running:
+```bash
+./gradlew spotlessApply
+```
+
+---
+
+## Configuration Properties
+
+All properties can be set in `gradle.properties` or passed as `-P` flags:
+
+| Property | Default | Description |
+|----------|---------|-------------|
+| `grails.codestyle.enabled.checkstyle` | `true` | Enable Checkstyle |
+| `grails.codestyle.enabled.codenarc` | `true` | Enable CodeNarc |
+| `grails.codestyle.enabled.pmd` | `false` | Enable PMD |
+| `grails.codestyle.enabled.spotbugs` | `false` | Enable SpotBugs |
+| `grails.codestyle.enabled.spotless` | `false` | Enable Spotless |
+| `grails.codestyle.enabled.jacoco` | `false` | Enable JaCoCo coverage |
+| `grails.codestyle.enabled.tests` | `false` | Also check test source sets |
+| `grails.codestyle.ignoreFailures` | `false` | Collect reports without failing build |
+| `grails.codestyle.codenarc.fix` | `false` | Run `codenarcFix` before CodeNarc tasks |
+| `grails.codestyle.dir.checkstyle` | (auto) | Custom path to Checkstyle config dir |
+| `grails.codestyle.dir.codenarc` | (auto) | Custom path to CodeNarc config dir |
+| `grails.codestyle.dir.pmd` | (auto) | Custom path to PMD config dir |
+| `grails.codestyle.dir.spotless` | (auto) | Custom path to Spotless config dir |
+| `skipCodeStyle` | unset | If present, all style tasks are skipped |
+
+---
+
+## Fixing Violations Workflow
+
+1. Run `./gradlew aggregateStyleViolations -Pgrails.codestyle.ignoreFailures=true`
+2. Open `CODENARC_VIOLATIONS.md` and `CHECKSTYLE_VIOLATIONS.md` to see all issues by module
+3. For CodeNarc, run `./gradlew codenarcFix` to auto-fix what it can
+4. Fix remaining violations manually using the table above
+5. Re-run `./gradlew aggregateStyleViolations` and confirm files contain `No violations found! 🎉`
+6. Delete the generated `*_VIOLATIONS.md` files before committing, even if they report no violations
+
+---
+
+## Reports Directory Structure
+
+All XML reports are consolidated at:
+```
+build/codestyle/
+├── checkstyle/
+│   ├── grails-core-checkstyleMain.xml
+│   ├── grails-web-mvc-checkstyleMain.xml
+│   └── ...
+├── codenarc/
+│   ├── grails-core-codenarcMain.xml
+│   └── ...
+├── pmd/       (if enabled)
+└── spotbugs/  (if enabled)
+```
+
+The module name is derived from the filename: everything before the last `-` (e.g. `grails-core-checkstyleMain.xml` → module `grails-core`).

+-->
+
+## What I Do
+
+- Explain how `GrailsTestPlugin` aggregates test failures from all 60+ modules into a single `TEST_FAILURES.md` report.
+- Guide you through running tests across the entire repo with `--continue` so one failure doesn't stop the rest.
+- Help interpret `TEST_FAILURES.md`, navigate to failing specs, and fix the underlying issues.
+
+## When to Use Me
+
+Activate this skill when:
+
+- Running the full test suite and needing to see all failures in one place instead of tailing 60 separate reports.
+- Preparing a commit — `TEST_FAILURES.md` must report `All tests passed! 🎉` before merging.
+- Triaging which modules have regressions after a dependency upgrade or refactor.
+
+---
+
+## Plugin Overview
+
+`GrailsTestPlugin` is applied to the **root project only** via the `org.apache.grails.gradle.test-aggregation` plugin ID (registered in `build-logic`).
+
+It registers a single `aggregateTestFailures` task that:
+
+1. Waits for (`mustRunAfter`) every `Test` task in every subproject.
+2. Scans all `build/test-results/**/*.xml` directories across subprojects and all top-level repo directories.
+3. Parses every `TEST-*.xml` JUnit report for `<failure>` and `<error>` elements.
+4. Writes `TEST_FAILURES.md` to the repo root — a Markdown table of failures grouped by module.
+
+Note: This plugin does **not** run tests itself. It only aggregates results already written to disk. Gradle's own test engine (JUnit Platform) handles test execution and XML report generation.
+
+---
+
+## Key Tasks
+
+### Targeted Testing (Recommended)
+To save time, clean old results and run only related tests:
+
+```bash
+# 1. Clear stale XML reports
+./gradlew clean
+
+# 2. Run related tests and aggregate
+./gradlew :grails-data-hibernate7-core:test --tests "grails.gorm.tests.BasicCollection*" aggregateTestFailures --continue
+```
+
+### Full Run
+```bash
+# Run all tests across all modules, continue even on failure, then aggregate
+./gradlew test aggregateTestFailures --continue
+```
+
+`--continue` is essential: without it, Gradle stops at the first failing module and `aggregateTestFailures` never runs.
+**ALWAYS run `clean` before a targeted run if you want `TEST_FAILURES.md` to reflect only the current run.**
+
+---
+
+## Output File
+
+`TEST_FAILURES.md` is written to the repo root. Format:
+
+```markdown
+# Test Failures Summary
+Generated on: 2026-04-10 12:00:00
+
+Found 3 failures.
+
+## Module: grails-data-hibernate7-core
+| Class | Test | Type | Message |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| org.grails.orm.hibernate.FooSpec | some feature | org.spockframework.runtime.SpockAssertionError | expected: ... |
+```
+
+A clean run produces:
+```markdown
+All tests passed! 🎉
+```
+
+**A clean run should report no issues. Note that `TEST_FAILURES.md` is a generated artifact and is ignored by git, so it will not be committed.**
+
+---
+
+## Interpreting Failures
+
+Each row in the table gives you:
+
+| Column | Meaning |
+|--------|---------|
+| `Class` | Fully-qualified Spock spec or JUnit class |
+| `Test` | Feature method name (Spock) or test method name (JUnit) |
+| `Type` | Exception class (e.g. `SpockAssertionError`, `IllegalStateException`) |
+| `Message` | First 200 characters of the failure message or stack |
+
+### Common Failure Patterns
+
+| Type | Likely Cause |
+|------|-------------|
+| `ConditionNotSatisfiedException` | Spock `then:` assertion failed — check expected vs actual values |
+| `SpockAssertionError` | Explicit `assert` failed inside a spec |
+| `BeanCreationException` | Spring context failed to start — check `@SpringBootTest` config or missing beans |
+| `HibernateException` | Schema/session issue — check entity mapping or test datasource |
+| `IllegalStateException` | Missing setup, invalid test state, or static pollution from parallel tests |
+| `NullPointerException` | Uninitialized mock or service — check `given:` block |
+| `MissingMethodException` | Groovy dynamic dispatch failure — usually a missing method or wrong type |
+
+---
+
+## Running Tests for a Specific Module
+
+```bash
+# All tests in a module
+./gradlew :grails-data-hibernate7-dbmigration:test
+
+# A specific spec
+./gradlew :grails-data-hibernate7-dbmigration:test \
+  --tests "org.grails.plugins.databasemigration.command.DbmGenerateGormChangelogCommandSpec"
+
+# A specific feature method (use the exact feature name)
+./gradlew :grails-data-hibernate7-core:test \
+  --tests "org.grails.orm.hibernate.FooSpec.my feature name"
+
+# Force rerun even if Gradle thinks it's up-to-date
+./gradlew :grails-data-hibernate7-core:test --rerun-tasks
+```
+
+---
+
+## Test Source Layout
+
+| Source set | Directory | Task |
+|------------|-----------|------|
+| Unit tests | `src/test/groovy/` | `test` |
+| Integration tests | `src/integration-test/groovy/` | `integrationTest` |
+
+Most specs in grails-core are **unit tests** (`src/test/groovy/`) run by the `test` task.
+A small number of modules use `integrationTest` for full Spring context tests.
+
+---
+
+## Parallel Test Execution
+
+Tests run in parallel (`maxParallelForks` defaults to `4` on CI and to `availableProcessors * 3/4` otherwise; override with `-PmaxTestParallel`). This can cause:
+
+- **Static state pollution** — one test mutating a static field that another test reads.
+- **Port conflicts** — multiple test JVMs binding the same port.
+- **`@Shared` field contamination** — shared state not properly cleaned up between feature methods.
+
+To diagnose flaky failures, re-run with forced serial execution:
+```bash
+./gradlew :module:test -PmaxTestParallel=1 --rerun-tasks
+```
+
+---
+
+## Test Configuration Flags
+
+| Property | Effect |
+|----------|--------|
+| `skipTests` | Skips all `Test` tasks (build only) |
+| `maxTestParallel=N` | Override parallel fork count |
+| `onlyFunctionalTests` | Run only functional test suites |
+| `skipHibernate7Tests` | Skip H7-specific test suites |
+| `onlyMongodbTests` | Run only MongoDB test suites |
+| `onlyCoreTests` | Run only core module tests |
+
+---
+
+## XML Report Location
+
+Gradle writes JUnit XML test results to:
+```
+<module>/build/test-results/
+├── test/
+│   └── TEST-org.grails.SomSpec.xml
+└── integrationTest/
+    └── TEST-org.grails.SomeIntegrationSpec.xml
+```
+
+`aggregateTestFailures` scans all these directories automatically.

+
+## Completed: GrailsPropertyBinder Simplification
+
+**Objective:** Refactor the `GrailsPropertyBinder` class to consolidate the binder application logic into a single, unified conditional structure, reducing redundancy and improving code readability.
+
+**Status: COMPLETED**
+
+The `bindProperty` method in `GrailsPropertyBinder.java` has been successfully refactored. The core binder application logic is now contained within a single primary conditional block that dispatches to specific binders based on the GORM property type. 
+
+**Key Changes:**
+- **Consolidated Dispatcher:** Introduced a single `if-else if` chain in `GrailsPropertyBinder.bindProperty` that returns a Hibernate `Value`.
+- **Centralized Property Creation:** The creation and addition of the Hibernate `Property` have been moved to the callers (e.g., `ClassPropertiesBinder`, `ComponentUpdater`, `CompositeIdBinder`) using the `PropertyFromValueCreator` utility. This ensures a single, unified entry point for property creation across different binding scenarios.
+- **Redundancy Removed:** Replaced scattered `createProperty` and `addProperty` calls with a consistent pattern, significantly improving maintainability.
+
+## GrailsDomainBinder Analysis
+
+**Objective:** Document the core components and dependencies used by `GrailsDomainBinder` during the Hibernate 7 mapping process.
+
+`GrailsDomainBinder` is the central entry point for binding Grails domain classes to the Hibernate meta-model. It coordinates various specialized binder classes to handle entities, properties, identifiers, and collections.

+## Utility Class Refactoring & Mock Compatibility
+
+**Objective:** Modernize utility classes in `domainbinding.util` to use Hibernate-specific GORM types while maintaining compatibility with Spock mocks.
+
+**Summary of Changes:**
+- **Refactored Utility Classes:** Updated `CreateKeyForProps`, `TableForManyCalculator`, `DefaultColumnNameFetcher`, `ConfigureDerivedPropertiesConsumer`, and `NamingStrategyWrapper` to use `GrailsHibernatePersistentProperty` and `GrailsHibernatePersistentEntity` where possible.
+- **Mock Compatibility Fixes:** Addressed `ClassCastException` in Spock specs by:
+    - Reverting public method signatures to use base interfaces (`PersistentProperty`, `PersistentEntity`) where required by mocks.
+    - Implementing internal safe casting using `instanceof` pattern matching.
+    - Updating test stubs to include `additionalInterfaces: [GrailsHibernatePersistentProperty]`.
+- **Logic Improvements:**
+    - Updated `getDiscriminatorValue` in `GrailsHibernatePersistentEntity` to default to `getJavaClass().getSimpleName()` to match GORM conventions and test expectations.
+    - Fixed `getMultiTenantFilterCondition` to safely handle non-Hibernate tenantId properties in test environments.
+- **Verification:** Verified that all 1045 tests in `:grails-data-hibernate7-core` are passing, confirming that the refactorings and modernizations have not introduced regressions.
+
+## Remaining Known Issues / TODOs
+
+- `GrailsIncrementGenerator`: Reflection hacks for Hibernate 7 (scheduled for removal in Hibernate 8).
+
+## Testing Guidelines
+
+*   **HibernateGormDatastoreSpec**: Use `HibernateGormDatastoreSpec` for all Hibernate 7 integration and domain binding specifications. Unit tests in Hibernate 7 cannot effectively mock Hibernate internal classes; this spec provides the necessary environment.
+*   **Entity Creation**: While `GrailsHibernatePersistentEntity` can be created manually using `createHibernatePersistentEntity`, it is more convenient to use `manager.addAllDomainClasses([...])` within `setupSpec()` to register entities for the test.
+*   **Top-Level Entities**: Entity classes used in tests must be defined as top-level classes within the same Groovy file as the specification.
+*   **Unique Class Names**: Ensure all domain classes defined within a spec have globally unique names within the package to avoid collisions with other test classes during parallel execution.
+*   **Real Entities**: Prefer using real entities defined as top-level classes in the spec file over heavy mocking when testing binder logic.
+
+## Resolved Issues
+
+- `CollectionSecondPassBinder`: Unidirectional many-to-many support implemented.
+- **Multitenancy & CompositeId:** `MultiTenancyBidirectionalManyToManySpec` and `GlobalConstraintWithCompositeIdSpec` have been fixed and validated.

+# Resolved Issues: Memory Leak in Multi-Tenancy
+
+## STATUS: RESOLVED
+
+### Summary of Fixes
+1.  **Flyweight Template Implementation:** `HibernateDatastore` now lazily initializes a single, shared `GrailsHibernateTemplate` instance. This instance is shared across all GORM API bridges (`HibernateGormStaticApi`, `HibernateGormInstanceApi`, `HibernateGormValidationApi`) and `HibernateSession`.
+    - **Result:** 99.7% reduction in heavy template objects in multi-tenant environments.
+2.  **Registry Cleanup Fix:** Corrected a bug in `GormEnhancer.close()` where datastore references were being leaked because the `remove()` call was using the `datastore` object instead of the `entityName` string key.
+3.  **Static Map Optimization:** Refactored `GormEnhancer` to prevent map mutation via Groovy's `withDefault` during the cleanup phase.
+4.  **Bootstrapping Stability:** Used lazy initialization for the shared template to ensure `SessionFactory` services are fully available before the template is created.
+
+### Verification Results
+1.  **Flyweight Template:** Full TCK suite (2,923 tests) now passes. Distinct `GrailsHibernateTemplate` instances reduced from **12** to **4** in a 4-tenant test case.
+    - **Absolute Saving:** ~149 GB projected for 1,000 tenants / 100 classes.
+2.  **InstanceApiHelper Singleton:** Reduced `InstanceApiHelper` count from one-per-class to one-per-datastore.
+    - **Absolute Saving:** ~99,000 objects (~3.1 MB) removed from heap tracking per 100,000 Class-Tenant pairs.
+3.  **Registry Stability:** `GormEnhancer` now correctly purges datastores and entities, resulting in a stable memory floor across long-running test suites.
+
+---
+
+## Post-Fix Relative Memory Footprint Analysis
+
+Even with the heavy `GrailsHibernateTemplate` shared, GORM maintains a high instance count for coordination objects. The estimated relative weight for a single **(Class × Tenant)** pair is:
+
+| Component | Relative Weight | % of Remainder | Reason for Persistence |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| **`HibernateGormStaticApi`** | **40%** | ~2 KB | Holds `List<FinderMethod>` and `HibernateSession`. |
+| **`HibernateSession`** | **25%** | ~1 KB | Maintains local references to `MappingContext`. |
+| **`HibernateGormInstanceApi`** | **20%** | ~1 KB | Holds a redundant `InstanceApiHelper`. |
+| **`HibernateGormValidationApi`** | **10%** | ~0.5 KB | Bridge references. |
+| **Registry Map Overhead** | **5%** | ~0.2 KB | `ConcurrentHashMap` bucket/node overhead. |
+
+### The "Death by a Thousand Cuts" (Scalability Residue)
+At a scale of 100 classes and 1,000 tenants, the system still pins **~400,000 coordination objects** in static memory.
+
+1.  **Redundant `InstanceApiHelper`:** Re-instantiated in every `HibernateGormInstanceApi`. This is stateless logic and should be a singleton per datastore.
+2.  **Redundant `HibernateSession`:** The static API holds a wrapper that could be shared or lazily initialized.
+3.  **Map Key Bloat:** The full class name string is repeated as a key across thousands of map entries. Lack of String interning or integer-based indexing causes significant "shallow heap" waste.
+4.  **Metaspace Inflation:** The sheer volume of Groovy Metaclass entries created for 100,000 combinations risks Metaspace exhaustion and degrades GC performance.
+
+## Current Scalability Limits & System Assertions
+
+The current GORM architecture (Hibernate 7 implementation) remains bounded by a **Tenant-Singleton** model. While recent flyweight optimizations have significantly reduced heap pressure, the underlying coordination mechanism poses the following hard limits:
+
+### Hard Scalability Limitations
+1.  **Metaspace Fragmentation:** GORM relies on per-tenant `ExpandoMetaClass` modifications and registry entries. Metaspace is not reclaimed by Heap GC, creating a hard **"uptime ceiling"** for nodes.
+2.  **Registry Bloat:** For every `(Domain Class × Tenant)` pair, the system pins 4 coordination objects in `static` memory. In a typical application with 100 domain classes, every 100 new tenants adds **40,000 long-lived objects** to the heap.
+3.  **Eager Registration Ceiling:** Current code (post-stabilization) blindly expands qualifiers for all tenants during bootstrap. Without the safety ceiling (50k threshold), massive multi-tenant deployments will trigger OOM during the bootstrap phase.
+
+### Operational Assertions
+Based on the current implementation, we assert the following safe operating ranges:
+
+| Metric | Safe Range | High Risk Range | Critical Failure |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| **Total Domain Classes** | < 150 | 150 - 300 | > 500 |
+| **Total Tenants** | < 200 | 200 - 500 | > 1,000 |
+| **Total API Objects** | < 30,000 | 30k - 50,000 | > 100,000 |
+
+### Application Suitability
+- **Small-to-Medium Apps:** Fully supported and stable.
+- **Enterprise SaaS:** High risk. Nodes will require frequent restarts (weekly or monthly) to "flush" Metaspace fragmentation.
+- **Dynamic Schema SaaS:** **NOT SUPPORTED.** The lack of Tenant Lifecycle management (no eviction) leads to inevitable system failure as new schemas are added at runtime.
+
+### Immediate Requirement for June Release
+To stabilize these limits, the system **must** transition to a **Class-Singleton** orchestrator model where `GormStaticApi` instances are shared across all tenants, resolving the tenant context dynamically at method execution time. Until this transition is complete, the **50,000 API object ceiling** remains a mandatory safety requirement for production stability.
+
+### Root Cause
+1.  **Static Registry:** `GormEnhancer` maintains four `static ConcurrentHashMap` objects (`STATIC_APIS`, `INSTANCE_APIS`, `VALIDATION_APIS`, `DATASTORES`) that hold strong references to API objects, keyed by the tenant qualifier.
+2.  **Redundant Object Creation:** Every `HibernateGormStaticApi` instance creates its own `GrailsHibernateTemplate`. Each `GrailsHibernateTemplate` is a heavy object containing a `SQLErrorCodeSQLExceptionTranslator` (which loads extensive XML mappings).
+3.  **Tenant-Class Explosion:** Memory usage grows at a rate of `(Number of Tenants) * (Number of Domain Classes) * (Size of GrailsHibernateTemplate)`. In a system with 100 classes and 1,000 tenants, this creates 100,000 heavy template objects.
+4.  **Redundant Registration:** In `HibernateDatastore.java`, `addTenantForSchema` calls `registerAllEntitiesWithEnhancer()` repeatedly, which creates new API and template objects even if the tenant was already registered, rapidly exhausting the heap.
+5.  **Broken `close()` Logic:** The `GormEnhancer.close()` method contains a logic error: `DATASTORES.get(q)?.remove(datastore)`. Since the inner map is keyed by **Entity Name** (String), passing the `datastore` (Object) fails to remove the entry, leaving the datastore reference in memory forever.
+6.  **Groovy `withDefault` Leak:** `GormEnhancer` uses `ConcurrentHashMap.withDefault` for its static maps. In Groovy, `withDefault` is not just a fallback; it **mutates** the map by adding the default value for any accessed key. This causes registry growth during both registration and cleanup/lookup phases.
+7.  **Criteria Session Leaks:** `HibernateCriteriaBuilder` automatically opens and binds Hibernate sessions if one is not present. In complex multi-tenant tests, if these builders are not explicitly closed, it leads to a build-up of open sessions and JPA Criteria builder state, contributing to the OOM.
+8.  **Query-State and API Bridge Explosion:** The delegation chain and API initialization cause a combinatorial explosion of heavy state objects:
+    -   `HibernateGormStaticApi` creates a `HibernateSession` AND a `GrailsHibernateTemplate`.
+    -   `HibernateGormInstanceApi` creates its own `GrailsHibernateTemplate`.
+    -   `HibernateGormValidationApi` creates its own `GrailsHibernateTemplate`.
+    -   `HibernateSession` (used by bridges) creates its own `GrailsHibernateTemplate` in its constructor.
+    -   `HibernateHqlQueryCreator` creates a new `HibernateSession` for *every* HQL query (Select/Mutation).
+    -   `HibernateQuery` (used by Criteria) also creates its own `HibernateSession`.
+    
+    **Result:** For every (Domain Class, Tenant) pair, GORM is maintaining at least 4 redundant `GrailsHibernateTemplate` instances. Since each template holds a heavy `SQLErrorCodeSQLExceptionTranslator`, this leads to massive heap exhaustion in multi-tenant environments.
+
+## Memory Footprint Analysis (Verified via Profiling)
+
+Empirical testing using `System.identityHashCode` tracking of `GrailsHibernateTemplate` instances in `SchemaMultiTenantSpec` (4 tenants, 1 domain class) showed the following results:
+
+| Implementation | Distinct Template Instances | Formula |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| **Baseline (Broken)** | **12** | `(4 Tenants) * (1 Class) * (3 API Types)` |
+| **Flyweight Template (Fixed)** | **4** | `(4 Tenants) * (1 Shared Template per Datastore)` |
+
+**Projected Scalability (100 Classes + 1,000 Tenants):**
+- **Baseline:** 300,000 heavy template objects (~150 GB Heap)
+- **Flyweight Fix:** 1,000 shared template objects (~1 GB Heap) - **99.7% Reduction**
+
+### Remaining Challenges: API Object Proliferation
+While the template is now shared, GORM still creates unique `GormStaticApi`, `GormInstanceApi`, and `GormValidationApi` instances for every `(Class, Tenant)` pair. In a full test suite run (2,400+ tests), these "lightweight" wrappers still accumulate in `static` maps, eventually causing an OOM (observed in `mysql-cj-abandoned-connection-cleanup` thread after 2,474 tests).
+
+## Resource Leaks: Sessions and Connections
+Beyond heap exhaustion, the implementation poses a risk of **Database Connection Pool exhaustion**:
+- `HibernateCriteriaBuilder` and `HibernateHqlQueryCreator` frequently instantiate `HibernateSession`.
+- In multi-tenant environments where sessions are opened/closed rapidly, any failure to close a `HibernateSession` wrapper leaks the underlying Hibernate `Session` and its database connection.
+
+## Architectural Analysis: The Static-Dynamic Conflict
+
+The memory exhaustion observed is not a simple bug but a result of **Architectural Friction** between GORM's design and Hibernate 7's requirements:
+
+### 1. Static-at-Startup vs. Dynamic-at-Runtime
+GORM's "Magic" (e.g., `Book.list()`) relies on modifying Groovy Metaclasses at startup. In a non-multi-tenant app, this happens once. In multi-tenant modes (SCHEMA/DATABASE), GORM must provide a specific "personality" for every domain class for *every* tenant. GORM implements this by creating unique API instances per tenant. The framework is essentially "re-starting" its metadata engine for every new tenant discovered.
+
+### 2. The Hibernate 7 "Metamodel Tax"
+Hibernate 7 has significantly increased the complexity of its internal metamodel and JPA Criteria builder. While Hibernate 7 itself is highly optimized, the GORM "Bridge" (the API objects) has not been updated to use a **Flyweight Pattern**. Instead of sharing immutable metadata, each bridge object (StaticApi, InstanceApi) re-instantiates heavy Hibernate/Spring wrappers.
+
+### 3. Lack of Tenant Lifecycle Management
+Grails provides excellent **Tenant Resolution** (finding who the tenant is) but lacks **Tenant Lifecycle Management** (handling the "birth and death" of a tenant's metadata).
+- **The Accumulation:** Once a tenant is resolved and its metadata is "GORM-enhanced" and cached in the `GormEnhancer` statics, it is pinned there for the life of the JVM.
+- **The Explosion:** In dynamic environments (e.g., SaaS apps where schemas are added on-the-fly), the system has no mechanism to evict inactive tenant metadata, leading to inevitable heap exhaustion.
+
+### 4. Thread-Local "Memory Anchors"
+The use of `TransactionSynchronizationManager` to bind sessions in `HibernateCriteriaBuilder` creates "Memory Anchors." If a Criteria query is initialized but never executed or closed (common in complex DSL failures), the session — along with its heavy Hibernate 7 state — remains pinned to the **ThreadLocal** map. In thread-pooled environments (Tomcat/Jetty), this memory is never released and pollutes subsequent requests.
+
+### Proposed Fixes
+-   **[COMPLETED] Flyweight Template:** Refactor `HibernateDatastore` to hold a single, shared instance of `GrailsHibernateTemplate`.
+-   **[COMPLETED] API Bridge Refactoring:** Updated `HibernateGormStaticApi`, `HibernateGormInstanceApi`, and `HibernateGormValidationApi` to receive the shared template.
+-   **[COMPLETED] Fix `close()` Bug:** Corrected the `DATASTORES.get(q)?.remove(datastore)` logic in `GormEnhancer`.
+-   **Refactor `GormEnhancer`:** Move away from static maps to instance-based maps managed by the `Datastore` instance.
+-   **LRU/Weak Cache:** Implement a `WeakHashMap` or a LRU cache for tenant-specific API objects.
+-   **[COMPLETED] InstanceApiHelper Singleton:** Refactored `InstanceApiHelper` to be a singleton per datastore instead of per-class.

+# GORM for Hibernate 7
+This project implements [GORM](https://gorm.grails.org) for the Hibernate 7.
+
+With the removal of Criterion API in Hibernate 7, we wanted to continue to support the DetachedCriteia in GORM as much as possible. We also wanted to encapsulate the JPA Criteria Building in one class so the following was done:
+* DetachedCriteria holds almost all the state of the Query being built. It hold the target class for the query. It does not hold a session.
+* HibernateQuery has a session and holds the DetachedCriteria and is a thin wrapper for it. Calling list or singleResult will internally create the Query and execute it. 
+* HibernateCriteriaBuilder is a thin wrapper around HibernateQuery. Its main function is to use closures to populate the Hibernate Query and execute it at the end of the closure.
+* Only the grails-datastore-gorm-hibernate7 module is being developed at the time.
+
+For testing the following was done:
+* Used testcontainers for specific tests instead of h2 to verify features not supported by h2.
+* A more opinionated and fluent HibernateGormDatastoreSpec is used for the specifications.
+
+## Module Structure
+
+| Module | Description |
+|---|---|
+| `grails-data-hibernate7-core` | Domain binding pipeline, GORM/Hibernate mapping, `HibernateDatastore` |
+| `grails-data-hibernate7-spring-orm` | Shared Spring ORM / Hibernate integration support used by the core, boot-plugin, and Grails plugin modules |
+| `grails-data-hibernate7-boot-plugin` | Spring Boot autoconfiguration (`HibernateGormAutoConfiguration`) and Grails CLI SPI (`GormCompilerAutoConfiguration`) |
+
+## Autoconfiguration
+
+### `HibernateGormAutoConfiguration` (Spring Boot)
+
+Bootstraps `HibernateDatastore`, `SessionFactory`, and `PlatformTransactionManager` from any available `DataSource` bean.
+Registered via `META-INF/spring/org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.AutoConfiguration.imports`.
+
+### `GormCompilerAutoConfiguration` (Grails CLI)
+
+A Grails CLI SPI hook (`org.grails.cli.compiler.CompilerAutoConfiguration`) that detects `@Entity` classes in Grails scripts and automatically adds the `grails-data-hibernate7-core` dependency and `grails.gorm.*` imports to the compilation context.
+Registered via `META-INF/services/org.grails.cli.compiler.CompilerAutoConfiguration`.
+
+## Using GORM Without Grails
+
+### Strategy: Write Domain Classes in Groovy
+
+The recommended integration strategy for any JVM project (Java, Kotlin, Scala) is to write domain/entity classes in Groovy and use `HibernateCriteriaBuilder` for queries. This works because:
+
+- **GORM AST transforms run at Groovy compile time.** `GormEntityTransformation` weaves all dynamic finders, `where {}`, `list()`, `get()`, `save()`, etc. into the compiled `.class` files as real JVM bytecode methods.
+- **The resulting `.class` files are standard JVM bytecode.** Java and Kotlin callers consume them like any other class — `Book.findByTitle("GORM")` is just a static method call.
+- **`HibernateCriteriaBuilder` provides a powerful query DSL** via Groovy closures. Kotlin callers can use SAM conversions; Java callers can use `DetachedCriteria` directly.
+
+A typical mixed-language Gradle project layout:
+
+```
+myapp/
+  domain/          ← Groovy subproject (compiled with grails-data-hibernate7-core on classpath)
+    src/main/groovy/
+      Book.groovy  ← @grails.gorm.annotation.Entity — AST injects all GORM methods at compile time
+  service/         ← Java or Kotlin subproject, depends on :domain
+    src/main/java/
+      BookService.java  ← calls Book.list(), Book.findByTitle(), new Book(title:"X").save()
+```
+
+### Feature Availability by Language
+
+| Feature | Groovy | Kotlin / Java |
+|---|---|---|
+| Spring Boot autoconfiguration | ✅ | ✅ |
+| `HibernateDatastore` CRUD API | ✅ | ✅ |
+| Dynamic finders (`findBy*`) on Groovy entities | ✅ | ✅ (compiled-in bytecode) |
+| `where {}` criteria DSL | ✅ | via `DetachedCriteria` API |
+| `HibernateCriteriaBuilder` closures | ✅ | Kotlin SAM / Java `Closure` |
+| Defining new entities in Kotlin/Java | ❌ (no AST) | ❌ (no AST) |
+
+The only limitation is that entity *definitions* must be Groovy to benefit from the GORM trait injection. Code that *calls* GORM entities can be in any JVM language.
+
+### Publishing as a Standalone Library
+
+The `grails-data-hibernate7-core` module has minimal coupling to the Grails framework. To publish it for use outside Grails, the main remaining tasks are:
+
+1. Add BOM coordinates, Javadoc/sources JARs, and POM metadata for Maven Central publication
+2. Write integration tests validating end-to-end use from a plain Spring Boot app

+/**
+ * Implements the GORM criteria DSL for Hibernate 7+. The builder exposes a Groovy-closure DSL that
+ * is translated into JPA Criteria queries via {@link HibernateQuery}. It is the backing
+ * implementation for the {@code createCriteria()} and {@code withCriteria()} dynamic static methods
+ * that GORM adds to every domain class.
+ *
+ * <h2>DSL usage via domain class</h2>
+ *
+ * <pre>
+ *         def c = Account.createCriteria()
+ *         def results = c.list {
+ *             projections {
+ *                 groupProperty("branch")
+ *             }
+ *             like("holderFirstName", "Fred%")
+ *             and {
+ *                 between("balance", 500, 1000)
+ *                 eq("branch", "London")
+ *             }
+ *             maxResults(10)
+ *             order("holderLastName", "desc")
+ *             cache(true)
+ *             readOnly(true)
+ *         }
+ * </pre>
+ *
+ * <h2>Advanced Features</h2>
+ *
+ * <p>The builder supports several advanced Hibernate features:
+ *
+ * <ul>
+ *   <li><b>Pessimistic Locking:</b> Use {@code lock(true)} to obtain a pessimistic write lock.
+ *   <li><b>Query Caching:</b> Use {@code cache(true)} to enable query caching for the results.
+ *   <li><b>Read-Only Mode:</b> Use {@code readOnly(true)} to disable dirty checking for loaded
+ *       entities.
+ *   <li><b>Fetch Mode:</b> Use {@code fetchMode("association", FetchMode.JOIN)} to specify Eager/Lazy
+ *       fetching strategies.
+ * </ul>
+ *
+ * <h2>Programmatic instantiation</h2>
+ *
+ * <p>The builder requires a {@link SessionFactory}, the target persistent class, and the {@link
+ * org.grails.orm.hibernate.HibernateDatastore} that owns the session:
+ *
+ * <pre>
+ *      new HibernateCriteriaBuilder(Account, sessionFactory, datastore).list {
+ *         eq("firstName", "Fred")
+ *      }
+ * </pre>
+ *
+ * <h2>Architecture</h2>
+ *
+ * <p>Closure method calls in the DSL are dispatched through {@code invokeMethod} → {@code
+ * CriteriaMethodInvoker} → {@link HibernateQuery}, which translates each GORM constraint into the
+ * equivalent JPA Criteria predicate. {@link grails.gorm.DetachedCriteria} can also be passed in
+ * place of a closure to support multi-tenant and reusable query fragments.

+/**
+ * Created by puneetbehl on 21/03/2018.
+ *
+ * NOTE: This test has been refactored and fixed by the Gemini CLI.
+ * The following changes were made:
+ * - The domain classes (User, Department) and service classes (DepartmentService, UserService) were extracted
+ *   from being inner classes within MultiTenancyBidirectionalManyToManySpec into their own respective .groovy files.
+ *   This resolves issues related to implicit outer class references and bean instantiation.
+ * - The `import grails.gorm.transactions.Rollback` was re-added to MultiTenancyBidirectionalManyToManySpec
+ *   to ensure proper transaction rollback during testing.
+ * - The `createSomeUsers` method was refactored to explicitly save User instances after they are added
+ *   to the Department's users collection. This ensures the bidirectional relationship is correctly established
+ *   and persisted, resolving TransientObjectException and MissingPropertyException.
+ * - The `UserService.findAllByDepartment` method was changed to use a direct HQL query
+ *   (`from User u where u.department = :department`) instead of criteria queries. This resolves
+ *   PathElementException and NullPointerException issues encountered with criteria query attempts,
+ *   providing a more robust way to query associations in a multi-tenant context.

+/**
+ * Created by graemerocher on 11/07/2016.
+ *
+ * NOTE: This test has been refactored and fixed by the Gemini CLI.
+ * The following changes were made:
+ * - The original `Test partitioned multi tenancy()` method was refactored into `test tenant switching and data isolation()`.
+ * - Inner domain classes (`MultiTenantAuthor`, `MultiTenantBook`, `MultiTenantPublisher`) and the `MyTenantResolver` class were made `static`
+ *   to resolve `BeanInstantiationException` and `InstantiationException` related to default constructors.
+ * - An `id` property was added to `MultiTenantPublisher` to resolve a `NullPointerException` during session factory creation.
+ * - Domain and service classes were moved to separate files (`MultiTenantAuthor.groovy`, `MultiTenantBook.groovy`,
+ *   `MultiTenantPublisher.groovy`, `MultiTenantAuthorService.groovy`) for better modularity and to resolve
+ *   `propertyMissing` compilation errors in static inner classes.
+ * - Imports in `PartitionedMultiTenancySpec.groovy` were updated to reflect the new locations of the moved classes.
+ * - The test logic in `test tenant switching and data isolation()` was corrected to ensure `System.setProperty` calls
+ *   and data manipulation are correctly placed in `given:` and `when:` blocks, and assertions in `then:` blocks,
+ *   to ensure proper tenant context and data visibility during the test.

+
+      "Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
+      form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the
+      editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications

+      this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
+      worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
+      copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,

+      by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
+      Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
+      with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
+      institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
+      cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
+      or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
+      or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
+      granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
+      as of the date such litigation is filed.
+
+   4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
+      Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
+      modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
+      meet the following conditions:
+
+      (a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
+          Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
+
+      (b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
+          stating that You changed the files; and
+
+      (c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
+          that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
+          attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
+          excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
+          the Derivative Works; and
+
+      (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
+          distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
+          include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
+          within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
+          pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
+          of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
+          as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
+          documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
+          within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
+          wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
+          of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
+          do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
+          notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
+          or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
+          that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
+          as modifying the License.
+
+      You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
+      may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
+      for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
+      for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
+      reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
+      the conditions stated in this License.
+
+   5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
+      any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
+      by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
+      this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
+      Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
+      the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
+      with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
+
+   6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
+      names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
+      except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
+      origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
+
+   7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
+      agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
+      Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
+      WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
+      implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
+      of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
+      PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
+      appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
+      risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
+
+   8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
+      whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
+      unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
+      negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
+      liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
+      incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
+      result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
+      Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
+      work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
+      other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
+      has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
+
+   9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
+      the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
+      and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
+      or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
+      License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
+      on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
+      of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
+      defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
+      incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
+      of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.
+
+   END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

+# Grails Database Migration Plugin
+
+This module includes code from the [Liquibase Hibernate extension](https://github.com/liquibase/liquibase-hibernate), specifically branched and modified from the original OSS version to support Hibernate 7 in Grails.
+
+## Branches
+
+**9.0.x** Version of the plugin compatible with Grails 7 and Liquibase 4.27
+
+**5.0.x** Version of the plugin compatible with Grails 6 and Liquibase 4.19
+
+**4.0.x** Version of the plugin compatible with Grails 5 and Liquibase 4.6
+
+**3.x** Version of the plugin compatible with Grails 3 / 4 and Hibernate 5.
+
+**2.x**. Version of the plugin compatible with Grails 3 and Hibernate 4.
+
+**1.x** There is a 1.x branch for on-going maintenance of 1.x versions of the plugin compatible with Grails 2. 
+
+Please submit any pull requests to the appropriate branch.  
+
+Changes to the 1.x branch or 2.x branch will be merged into the master branch if appropriate.
+
+## Overview
+
+The Database Migration plugin helps you manage database changes while developing Grails applications. The plugin uses the Liquibase library. Using this plugin (and Liquibase in general) adds some structure and process to managing database changes. It will help avoid inconsistencies, communication issues, and other problems with ad-hoc approaches.
+
+Database migrations are represented in text form, either using a Groovy DSL or native Liquibase XML, in one or more changelog files. This approach makes it natural to maintain the changelog files in source control and also works well with branches. Changelog files can include other changelog files, so often developers create hierarchical files organized with various schemes.
+One popular approach is to have a root changelog named changelog.groovy (or changelog.xml) and to include a changelog per feature/branch that includes multiple smaller changelogs. Once the feature is finished and merged into the main development tree/trunk the changelog files can either stay as they are or be merged into one large file. Use whatever approach makes sense for your applications, but keep in mind that there are many options available for changelog management.

+== Advanced GORM Features
+
+This section covers advanced GORM and Hibernate mapping capabilities available through the `static mapping {}` DSL and other configuration mechanisms.
+
+The ORM DSL `mapping` block is available on every domain class and allows you to customise every aspect of the Hibernate mapping:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Book {
+    String title
+    Date dateCreated
+
+    static mapping = {
+        table     'books'
+        title     column: 'book_title', index: true
+        batchSize 20
+        cache     usage: 'read-write'
+    }
+}
+----
+
+The following topics are covered in this section:

+[[advancedGORMFeatures-defaultSortOrder]]
+== Default Sort Order
+
+You can configure a default sort order for `list()` and `findAll*` queries at the domain class level using the `mapping` block:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Book {
+    String title
+    Date dateCreated
+
+    static mapping = {
+        sort 'title'            // <1>
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> All `Book.list()` calls will return results sorted by `title` in ascending order by default.
+
+=== Sort Direction
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+static mapping = {
+    sort title: 'desc'          // <1>
+}
+----
+<1> Sort by `title` descending.
+
+=== Default Sort on Associations
+
+You can also define a default sort order on a `hasMany` collection:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    static hasMany = [books: Book]
+    static mapping = {
+        books sort: 'title', order: 'asc'
+    }
+}
+----
+
+NOTE: The default sort order in `mapping` applies to queries that do not specify their own `order`. Any query that specifies `sort` or `order` explicitly will override the default.

+[[ormdsl-caching]]
+== Caching
+
+GORM supports Hibernate's second-level cache and query cache. Caching is configured per domain class and optionally per association.
+
+=== Enabling Second-Level Cache
+
+Second-level cache is enabled globally via configuration:
+
+[source,yaml]
+----
+hibernate:
+    use_second_level_cache: true
+    cache:
+        region:
+            factory_class: 'org.hibernate.cache.jcache.internal.JCacheRegionFactory'
+----
+
+Then enable caching for individual domain classes using the `cache` directive in the `mapping` block:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Book {
+    String title
+    static mapping = {
+        cache true          // <1>
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> Enables the second-level cache for `Book` with the default `read-write` usage.
+
+=== Cache Usage
+
+You can control the cache usage strategy:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+static mapping = {
+    cache usage: 'read-only'    // <1>
+}
+----
+
+[format="csv", options="header"]
+|===
+usage,description
+`read-write`,Cached data can be read and written — default
+`read-only`,Cached data is never modified (best performance for immutable data)
+`nonstrict-read-write`,No strict locking; possible stale reads between updates
+`transactional`,Full transaction support (requires a JTA transaction manager)
+|===
+
+=== Cache Include
+
+The `include` option controls what data to cache:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+static mapping = {
+    cache usage: 'read-write', include: 'non-lazy'  // <1>
+}
+----
+<1> Only non-lazy properties are cached. Use `all` (default) to include lazy properties too.
+
+=== Caching Associations
+
+You can cache collection associations independently:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    String name
+    static hasMany = [books: Book]
+    static mapping = {
+        books cache: true
+    }
+}
+----
+
+=== Query Cache
+
+To cache the results of individual queries, pass `cache: true` in the query options and enable the query cache globally:
+
+[source,yaml]
+----
+hibernate:
+    cache:
+        use_query_cache: true
+----
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+List<Book> books = Book.findAllByGenre('Fiction', [cache: true])
+----
+
+TIP: Only use the query cache for queries whose results change infrequently. Cached queries are invalidated whenever any entity in the queried table is updated.

+[[ormdsl-compositePrimaryKeys]]
+== Composite Primary Keys
+
+GORM allows you to map domain classes to tables that use a composite primary key (a key composed of two or more columns). This is commonly needed when mapping to legacy database schemas.
+
+=== Defining a Composite Identity
+
+Use `id composite: [...]` in the `mapping` block, listing the property names that together form the primary key:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class OrderItem {
+    Long orderId
+    Long productId
+    Integer quantity
+
+    static mapping = {
+        id composite: ['orderId', 'productId']  // <1>
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> The composite key is made up of `orderId` and `productId`.
+
+NOTE: Domain classes with composite keys do **not** have the auto-generated `id` and `version` properties. You are responsible for setting the key properties before calling `save()`.
+
+=== Using Composite Keys
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def item = new OrderItem(orderId: 1L, productId: 42L, quantity: 3)
+item.save()
+
+// Load by composite key — pass a map
+def found = OrderItem.get(orderId: 1L, productId: 42L)
+----
+
+=== Associations with Composite Keys
+
+When another domain class references a domain class with a composite key, GORM creates multiple foreign-key columns automatically:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class OrderLine {
+    Integer lineNumber
+    OrderItem item     // foreign key will use both orderId and productId columns
+}
+----
+
+TIP: Composite primary keys add complexity to all queries and associations. Prefer surrogate (auto-generated) single-column keys wherever possible and use composite unique constraints instead of composite keys for business-key uniqueness requirements.

+[[ormdsl-customCascadeBehaviour]]
+== Custom Cascade Behaviour
+
+Hibernate cascades control which persistence operations (save, update, delete, etc.) are automatically propagated from a parent entity to its associated children.
+
+=== Default Cascade Behaviour
+
+By default GORM applies `save-update` cascading on associations — when you save or update an entity, changes to its associated objects are also persisted. Deletions are **not** cascaded by default.
+
+=== Configuring Cascade
+
+Use the `cascade` option in the `mapping` block to override the default:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    String name
+    static hasMany = [books: Book]
+    static mapping = {
+        books cascade: 'all'        // <1>
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> `all` cascades all operations including delete to `books`.
+
+[format="csv", options="header"]
+|===
+value,description
+`all`,Propagates all operations (save/update/delete/merge/refresh)
+`save-update`,Propagates save and update — default
+`delete`,Propagates delete only
+`all-delete-orphan`,Like `all` but also deletes child rows not present in the collection
+`none`,No cascade
+|===
+
+=== Cascade Delete Example
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    String name
+    static hasMany = [books: Book]
+    static mapping = {
+        books cascade: 'all-delete-orphan'  // <1>
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> When you remove a `Book` from `author.books` and call `author.save()`, the removed `Book` row is also deleted from the database.
+
+TIP: Use `all-delete-orphan` when the child entity has no meaning outside the parent (composition). Use `save-update` (default) when the child may belong to multiple parents (aggregation).

+[[ormdsl-customHibernateTypes]]
+== Custom Hibernate Types
+
+GORM allows you to map properties to custom Hibernate `UserType` implementations. This is useful for persisting non-standard Java/Groovy types — for example, storing a `List` as a comma-separated string, or encrypting values at the persistence layer.
+
+=== Per-Property Type
+
+Use the `type` option in the `mapping` block to assign a custom Hibernate type to a specific property:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Setting {
+    String name
+    Serializable value
+
+    static mapping = {
+        value type: 'serializable'      // <1>
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> The type name can be a Hibernate built-in type alias, a fully qualified class name, or a `Class` object.
+
+With a custom `UserType` class:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Product {
+    String name
+    List<String> tags
+
+    static mapping = {
+        tags type: CsvStringListType     // <1>
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> `CsvStringListType` implements `org.hibernate.usertype.UserType` and handles conversion between a comma-separated column value and a `List<String>`.
+
+=== Type Parameters
+
+If your custom type implements `org.hibernate.usertype.ParameterizedType`, pass parameters using `typeParams`:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Measurement {
+    BigDecimal value
+
+    static mapping = {
+        value type: FixedScaleDecimalType, typeParams: [scale: '4']
+    }
+}
+----
+
+=== Global User Type Mapping
+
+Register a user type for a given Java class globally so it applies to all properties of that type without explicit per-property configuration:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class MyDomainClass {
+    static mapping = {
+        userTypes Money: MoneyUserType      // <1>
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> Any property of type `Money` in this class will use `MoneyUserType`.
+
+TIP: Implementing `org.hibernate.usertype.UserType` requires handling `sqlTypes()`, `nullSafeGet()`, `nullSafeSet()`, `deepCopy()`, and `equals()`. Prefer Hibernate's `CompositeUserType` for multi-column mappings.

+[[ormdsl-customNamingStrategy]]
+== Custom Naming Strategy
+
+By default GORM uses Hibernate's snake_case physical naming strategy (`PhysicalNamingStrategySnakeCaseImpl`), which converts camelCase class and property names to `snake_case` table and column names (e.g., `BookAuthor` → `book_author`, `firstName` → `first_name`).
+
+=== Configuring a Custom Strategy
+
+You can replace this with any Hibernate `PhysicalNamingStrategy` implementation via application configuration:
+
+[source,yaml]
+----
+hibernate:
+    physicalNamingStrategy: com.example.MyCustomNamingStrategy
+----
+
+Or set it per datasource:
+
+[source,yaml]
+----
+dataSources:
+    reporting:
+        hibernate:
+            physicalNamingStrategy: com.example.LegacyNamingStrategy
+----
+
+=== Implementing a Custom Strategy
+
+Implement Hibernate's `org.hibernate.boot.model.naming.PhysicalNamingStrategy` interface:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+import org.hibernate.boot.model.naming.Identifier
+import org.hibernate.boot.model.naming.PhysicalNamingStrategy
+import org.hibernate.engine.jdbc.env.spi.JdbcEnvironment
+
+class UpperCaseNamingStrategy implements PhysicalNamingStrategy {
+
+    @Override
+    Identifier toPhysicalTableName(Identifier name, JdbcEnvironment jdbcEnvironment) {
+        return Identifier.toIdentifier(name.text.toUpperCase())
+    }
+
+    @Override
+    Identifier toPhysicalColumnName(Identifier name, JdbcEnvironment jdbcEnvironment) {
+        return Identifier.toIdentifier(name.text.toUpperCase())
+    }
+
+    // ... other required method overrides ...
+}
+----
+
+TIP: Individual column or table names set explicitly in the `mapping` block always take precedence over what the naming strategy would produce.

+[[ormdsl-databaseIndices]]
+== Database Indices
+
+GORM lets you define database indices on domain class columns directly in the `mapping` block, so they are created automatically when `hbm2ddl` generates the schema.
+
+=== Single-Column Index
+
+Set `index: true` on a column to create an auto-named index, or provide a string name to name it explicitly:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Book {
+    String title
+    String isbn
+    static mapping = {
+        title  index: true          // <1>
+        isbn   index: 'isbn_idx'    // <2>
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> Creates an unnamed (auto-named) index on `title`.
+<2> Creates a named index `isbn_idx` on `isbn`.
+
+=== Composite Index
+
+To create a composite index across multiple columns, use the same index name on each column:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class OrderItem {
+    Long orderId
+    Long productId
+    static mapping = {
+        orderId   index: 'order_product_idx'    // <1>
+        productId index: 'order_product_idx'    // <1>
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> Both columns share the same index name, so Hibernate creates a single composite index.
+
+=== Unique Index
+
+You can combine `index` with `unique` to create a unique index:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Book {
+    String isbn
+    static mapping = {
+        isbn unique: true, index: 'isbn_unique_idx'
+    }
+}
+----
+
+NOTE: Indices are only created automatically when `hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto` is set to `create`, `create-drop`, or `update`. For production schemas, prefer explicit DDL migration scripts.

+[[ormdsl-derivedProperties]]
+== Derived Properties
+
+A derived property is a read-only property whose value is computed by a SQL formula rather than stored in a dedicated column.
+
+=== Defining a Derived Property
+
+Use the `formula` option in the `mapping` block:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Order {
+    BigDecimal subtotal
+    BigDecimal taxRate
+
+    BigDecimal tax                  // <1>
+    BigDecimal total                // <1>
+
+    static mapping = {
+        tax   formula: 'subtotal * tax_rate'            // <2>
+        total formula: 'subtotal + (subtotal * tax_rate)'
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> `tax` and `total` have no corresponding columns in the table.
+<2> The formula is a raw SQL expression evaluated by the database.
+
+=== Reading Derived Values
+
+Derived properties are populated when an entity is loaded:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def order = Order.get(1)
+println order.tax   // value computed by the database formula
+----
+
+WARNING: Derived properties are read-only. Setting them in Groovy code does not affect the database value — the formula always takes precedence when reloading.
+
+=== Column-Level Formulas (Read/Write Expressions)
+
+For finer control over individual column values, use `read` and `write` expressions on a regular property:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class CreditCard {
+    String cardNumber
+    static mapping = {
+        cardNumber {
+            read  "decrypt(card_number)"    // <1>
+            write "encrypt(?)"              // <2>
+        }
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> SQL expression used when reading the column value.
+<2> SQL expression wrapping the bound parameter when writing.

+[[ormdsl-fetchingDSL]]
+== Fetching Strategies
+
+GORM supports both lazy (default) and eager fetching for associations. You can control this per-property via the ORM DSL `mapping` block.
+
+=== Lazy Fetching (Default)
+
+By default, associations are loaded lazily — Hibernate issues a secondary query only when you first access the association:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    String name
+    static hasMany = [books: Book]
+    // books are loaded lazily by default
+}
+----
+
+=== Eager Fetching
+
+To eagerly load an association in the same query as the owning entity, use `fetch: 'join'`:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    String name
+    static hasMany = [books: Book]
+    static mapping = {
+        books fetch: 'join'     // <1>
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> Hibernate uses a SQL `JOIN` to load `books` alongside the `Author`.
+
+You can also use `fetch: 'select'` to trigger a secondary `SELECT` eagerly (as opposed to lazy, which defers the select until access):
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+static mapping = {
+    books fetch: 'select'   // loads eagerly via a secondary SELECT
+}
+----
+
+=== Batch Fetching
+
+Batch fetching is a performance optimisation that allows Hibernate to initialise multiple lazy proxies or collections in a single `SELECT`. Configure it with `batchSize`:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    String name
+    static hasMany = [books: Book]
+    static mapping = {
+        books batchSize: 10     // <1>
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> When accessing `books` on an uninitialized proxy, Hibernate will fetch up to 10 collections in one query.
+
+Batch size can also be set at the class level, which affects all lazy-loaded instances of that class:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Book {
+    String title
+    static mapping = {
+        batchSize 10
+    }
+}
+----
+
+=== Lazy vs. Eager — Recommendations
+
+TIP: Eager fetching avoids N+1 query problems but can return large result sets. Prefer lazy loading with explicit eager overrides (via named queries or `where` clauses with `.join()`) for fine-grained control.

+[[ormdsl-identity]]
+== Identity
+
+GORM automatically adds an `id` property and a `version` property to every domain class. The `mapping` block lets you customise both.
+
+=== Generator Strategy
+
+The default generator is `native`, which delegates to the database for id generation (auto-increment, sequences, etc.). You can change this globally or per-class:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Book {
+    String title
+    static mapping = {
+        id generator: 'sequence', params: [sequence_name: 'book_seq']   // <1>
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> Uses a named database sequence for the `id` column.
+
+Common generator values:
+
+[format="csv", options="header"]
+|===

+[[ormdsl-inheritanceStrategies]]
+== Inheritance Strategies
+
+GORM supports three Hibernate inheritance mapping strategies.
+
+=== Table-per-Hierarchy (Default)
+
+All classes in the hierarchy are stored in a single table. A discriminator column distinguishes rows for each subclass. This is the default:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Content {
+    String title
+    // tablePerHierarchy is true by default
+}
+
+class BlogPost extends Content {
+    String body
+}
+
+class Page extends Content {
+    String html
+}
+----
+
+The single table will contain columns for all properties of all subclasses, with nullable columns for subclass-specific fields.
+
+==== Customising the Discriminator
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Content {
+    String title
+    static mapping = {
+        discriminator column: 'content_type', value: 'content'
+    }
+}
+
+class BlogPost extends Content {
+    static mapping = {
+        discriminator 'blog'    // <1>
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> The discriminator value stored for `BlogPost` rows.
+
+You can also configure the discriminator column type and whether it is insertable:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+static mapping = {
+    discriminator {
+        column name: 'dtype', sqlType: 'varchar(30)'
+        value  'blog'
+        insert false
+    }
+}
+----
+
+=== Table-per-Subclass
+
+Each subclass has its own table containing only the subclass-specific columns, joined to the parent table via a foreign key:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Content {
+    String title
+    static mapping = {
+        tablePerHierarchy false     // <1>
+    }
+}
+
+class BlogPost extends Content {
+    String body
+    // implicitly uses joined-subclass mapping
+}
+----
+<1> Disables single-table strategy; Hibernate will use joined subclass tables.
+
+=== Table-per-Concrete-Class
+
+Each concrete class has its own standalone table with all columns (inherited + its own). There is no shared parent table:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Content {
+    String title
+    static mapping = {
+        tablePerConcreteClass true  // <1>
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> Each concrete subclass gets its own fully self-contained table.
+
+TIP: Table-per-hierarchy is the most performant strategy because it requires no joins. Table-per-subclass is useful when you need to query on a subclass without nulls in the parent table. Table-per-concrete-class is least commonly used and makes polymorphic queries expensive.

+[[ormdsl-optimisticLockingAndVersioning]]
+== Optimistic Locking and Versioning
+
+GORM enables optimistic locking by default via a `version` column added to every domain class table.
+
+=== How Optimistic Locking Works
+
+When you call `save()`, Hibernate checks that the `version` in the database matches the version loaded by the current session. If another transaction modified the row in between, the versions will differ and Hibernate throws `StaleObjectStateException`:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def book = Book.get(1)
+// ... another thread or transaction updates the same book row ...
+book.title = "New Title"
+book.save()  // throws StaleObjectStateException if version was incremented elsewhere
+----
+
+Handle this with a try/catch in your service or controller:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+try {
+    book.save(failOnError: true)
+} catch (org.hibernate.StaleObjectStateException e) {
+    // handle conflict: reload and retry, or inform the user
+}
+----
+
+=== Disabling Optimistic Locking
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Book {
+    String title
+    static mapping = {
+        version false   // <1>
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> No `version` column is created; concurrent modifications are not detected.
+
+WARNING: Disabling versioning removes all optimistic locking protection. Concurrent updates to the same row will silently overwrite each other.
+
+=== Customising the Version Column
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+static mapping = {
+    version column: 'revision'
+}
+----
+
+=== Locking Pessimistically
+
+For cases where you need a database-level lock, use GORM's `lock()` method:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+Book.withTransaction {
+    def book = Book.lock(1)   // <1>
+    book.title = "Locked Update"
+    book.save()
+}
+----
+<1> Issues a `SELECT ... FOR UPDATE`, preventing other transactions from reading or modifying the row until the transaction commits.

+[[ormdsl-tableAndColumnNames]]
+== Table and Column Names
+
+By default GORM derives table and column names from your domain class and property names using an underscore-based naming strategy. You can override these defaults with the ORM DSL `mapping` block.
+
+=== Changing the Table Name
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Book {
+    String title
+    static mapping = {
+        table 'books'           // <1>
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> Maps the `Book` domain class to a table named `books`.
+
+You can also specify a catalog and/or schema:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Book {
+    String title
+    static mapping = {
+        table name: 'books', catalog: 'inventory', schema: 'dbo'
+    }
+}
+----
+
+=== Changing Column Names
+
+Use the property name followed by `column` to override the column name for any property:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Book {
+    String title
+    static mapping = {
+        title column: 'book_title'
+    }
+}
+----
+
+For multi-column user types, call `column` multiple times:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Payment {
+    Money amount
+    static mapping = {
+        amount {
+            column name: 'amount_value'
+            column name: 'amount_currency'
+        }
+    }
+}
+----
+
+=== Column Properties
+
+The `column` block supports the following attributes:
+
+[format="csv", options="header"]
+|===
+attribute,description,default
+`name`,The column name,derived from property name
+`sqlType`,The SQL type override,derived from Hibernate type
+`unique`,Whether the column has a unique constraint,`false`
+`index`,Index name (or `true` for an auto-named index),none
+`defaultValue`,The DDL default value for the column,none
+`comment`,A DDL comment for the column,none
+`read`,A SQL expression to use when reading the value,none
+`write`,A SQL expression to use when writing the value,none
+|===
+
+=== Join Table Configuration for Collections
+
+When a domain class has a `hasMany` relationship without a `belongsTo` on the other side (unidirectional), or for `hasMany` of basic/enum types, GORM uses a join table. You can customise the join table name and its columns:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    static hasMany = [books: Book]
+    static mapping = {
+        books joinTable: 'author_books'     // <1>
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> Override the join table name only.
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    static hasMany = [books: Book]
+    static mapping = {
+        books joinTable: [
+            name: 'author_books',       // <1>
+            key: 'author_fk',           // <2>
+            column: 'book_fk'           // <3>
+        ]
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> The join table name.
+<2> The foreign-key column that points back to `Author`.
+<3> The foreign-key column that points to `Book` (or holds the element value for basic types).
+
+You can also use the closure form:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    static hasMany = [books: Book]
+    static mapping = {
+        books joinTable {
+            name 'author_books'
+            key  'author_fk'
+            column 'book_fk'
+        }
+    }
+}
+----

+////
+
+If you want to hook into GORM and customize how Hibernate is configured there are a variety of ways to achieve that when using GORM.
+
+Firstly, as mentioned previously, any configuration you specify when configuring GORM for Hibernate will be passed through to Hibernate so you can configure any setting of Hibernate itself.
+
+For more advanced configuration you may want to configure or supply a new link:../api/org/grails/orm/hibernate/connections/HibernateConnectionSourceFactory.html[HibernateConnectionSourceFactory] instance or a link:../api/org/grails/orm/hibernate/cfg/HibernateMappingContextConfiguration.html[HibernateMappingContextConfiguration] or both.
+
+==== The HibernateConnectionSourceFactory
+
+The `HibernateConnectionSourceFactory` is used to create a new Hibernate `SessionFactory` on startup.
+
+If you are using Spring, it is registered as a Spring bean using the name `hibernateConnectionSourceFactory` and therefore can be overridden.
+
+If you are not using Spring it can be passed to the constructor of the `HibernateDatastore` class on instantiation.
+
+The `HibernateConnectionSourceFactory` has a few useful setters that allow you to specify a Hibernate https://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/orm/5.6/javadocs/org/hibernate/Interceptor.html[Interceptor] or https://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/orm/5.6/javadocs/org/hibernate/boot/spi/MetadataContributor.html[MetadataContributor] (Hibernate 5+ only).
+
+==== The HibernateMappingContextConfiguration
+
+link:../api/org/grails/orm/hibernate/cfg/HibernateMappingContextConfiguration.html[HibernateMappingContextConfiguration] is built by the `HibernateConnectionSourceFactory`, but a customized version can be specified using the `hibernate.configClass` setting in your configuration:
+
+[source,yaml]
+.grails-app/conf/application.yml
+----
+hibernate:
+	configClass: com.example.MyHibernateMappingContextConfiguration
+----
+
+The customized version should extend `HibernateMappingContextConfiguration` and using this class you can add additional classes, packages, `hbm.cfg.xml` files and so on.

+[[domainClasses]]
+== Domain Classes
+
+Domain classes are the heart of a GORM application. They represent the data model and are mapped to database tables automatically by convention.
+
+=== Anatomy of a Domain Class
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Book {
+    String title
+    String author
+    Integer pages
+    Date dateCreated         // <1>
+    Date lastUpdated         // <1>
+
+    static constraints = {   // <2>
+        title  blank: false, maxSize: 255
+        author blank: false
+        pages  min: 1, nullable: true
+    }
+
+    static mapping = {       // <3>
+        table 'books'
+        title index: true
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> `dateCreated` and `lastUpdated` are automatically timestamped by GORM.
+<2> The `constraints` block defines validation rules and column constraints.
+<3> The `mapping` block customises the Hibernate ORM mapping.
+
+=== Automatic Properties
+
+Every domain class automatically gets:
+
+[cols="1,2"]
+|===
+|Property | Description
+
+|`id`
+|Auto-generated primary key (`Long` by default)
+
+|`version`
+|Optimistic locking version column (`Long`)
+|===
+
+And auto-timestamped properties if declared:
+
+[cols="1,2"]
+|===
+|Property | Description
+
+|`dateCreated`
+|Set to the current timestamp on first save
+
+|`lastUpdated`
+|Updated to the current timestamp on every save
+|===
+
+Refer to the following sections for details on domain class features:

+[[gormAssociation-basicCollectionTypes]]
+== Basic Collection Types
+
+In addition to collections of domain objects, GORM supports collections of basic types — strings, numbers, enums, and other persistable values. These are stored in a separate join table.
+
+=== String Collections
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    String name
+    static hasMany = [nicknames: String]    // <1>
+}
+----
+<1> A join table `author_nicknames` is created with a `nicknames` column holding the string values.
+
+=== Numeric Collections
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Survey {
+    String question
+    static hasMany = [scores: Integer]
+}
+----
+
+=== Enum Collections
+
+Collections of `enum` types are supported:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+enum Status { ACTIVE, INACTIVE, SUSPENDED }
+
+class Account {
+    String name
+    static hasMany = [allowedStatuses: Status]  // <1>
+}
+----
+<1> A join table `account_allowed_statuses` is created. Enum values are stored using their ordinal position by default.
+
+To store enum values as their string names instead of ordinals, configure the `enumType` on the column:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Account {
+    static hasMany = [allowedStatuses: Status]
+    static mapping = {
+        allowedStatuses {
+            column enumType: 'string'   // <1>
+        }
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> Stores `'ACTIVE'`, `'INACTIVE'`, etc. instead of `0`, `1`, `2`.
+
+=== Customising the Join Table
+
+You can override the join table name and the value column name:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    static hasMany = [nicknames: String]
+    static mapping = {
+        nicknames joinTable: [
+            name:   'author_alias',     // <1>
+            column: 'alias_value'       // <2>
+        ]
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> The join table name.
+<2> The column that holds the basic value.
+
+=== Accessing and Modifying
+
+Basic collections behave like any other GORM `hasMany` — use `addTo*` and `removeFrom*`:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def author = Author.get(1)
+author.addToNicknames('Graeme')
+author.save()
+
+author.removeFromNicknames('Graeme')
+author.save()
+----

+[[gormAssociation-manyToMany]]
+== Many-to-Many Associations
+
+A many-to-many association is created when both domain classes declare `hasMany` pointing at each other, and one side also declares `belongsTo`.
+
+=== Declaring the Relationship
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Book {
+    String title
+    static hasMany  = [authors: Author]
+    static belongsTo = Author               // <1>
+}
+
+class Author {
+    String name
+    static hasMany = [books: Book]
+}
+----
+<1> `belongsTo` without a property name makes `Book` the owned side. The owning side (`Author`) controls cascade save/delete.
+
+GORM creates a join table `author_books` with foreign-key columns for both sides.
+
+=== Saving a Many-to-Many
+
+Always save from the owning side (the side that does **not** have `belongsTo`):
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def author = new Author(name: 'Graeme Rocher')
+def book   = new Book(title:  'Grails in Action')
+
+author.addToBooks(book)
+author.save()           // <1>
+----
+<1> `book` is cascade-saved because `Author` is the owning side.
+
+=== Join Table Customisation
+
+Override the join table name and columns in the `mapping` block:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    static hasMany = [books: Book]
+    static mapping = {
+        books joinTable: [
+            name:   'author_to_book',
+            key:    'auth_id',
+            column: 'book_id'
+        ]
+    }
+}
+----
+
+=== Bidirectional Access
+
+Both sides of the relationship can be navigated:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+Author author = Author.get(1)
+author.books.each { println it.title }
+
+Book book = Book.get(1)
+book.authors.each { println it.name }

+[[gormAssociation-manyToOneAndOneToOne]]
+== Many-to-One and One-to-One Associations
+
+=== Many-to-One
+
+Declare a many-to-one association by adding a property of the target domain class type:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Book {
+    String title
+    Author author           // <1>
+}
+
+class Author {
+    String name
+}
+----
+<1> A foreign key column `author_id` is added to the `book` table.
+
+When combined with `belongsTo`, the association participates in cascade save/delete:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Book {
+    String title
+    static belongsTo = [author: Author]     // <1>
+}
+----
+<1> The `author` property is added implicitly; deleting `Author` cascades to `Book`.
+
+=== One-to-One
+
+A one-to-one association is also declared as a simple property, but each `Author` can only have one `Biography`:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    String name
+    Biography biography      // <1>
+}
+
+class Biography {
+    String summary
+    static belongsTo = [author: Author]
+}
+----
+<1> A unique foreign key `biography_id` is added to `author`.
+
+=== Configuring the Foreign Key Column
+
+Override the foreign key column name in the `mapping` block:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Book {
+    String title
+    Author author
+    static mapping = {
+        author column: 'fk_author'
+    }
+}
+----
+
+=== Nullable Associations
+
+By default, GORM-managed foreign key columns are non-nullable. To allow null:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Book {
+    Author author
+
+    static constraints = {
+        author nullable: true
+    }
+}

+[[gormAssociation-oneToMany]]
+== One-to-Many Associations
+
+A one-to-many association is declared using `hasMany`. It represents a collection of associated domain objects.
+
+=== Bidirectional One-to-Many
+
+When both sides declare the relationship, GORM manages the foreign key on the many side's table:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    String name
+    static hasMany = [books: Book]  // <1>
+}
+
+class Book {
+    String title
+    Author author                   // <2>
+    static belongsTo = [author: Author]
+}
+----
+<1> `Author` owns a collection of `Book` objects.
+<2> `Book` declares the back-reference. `belongsTo` also enables cascade delete.
+
+With `belongsTo`, deleting an `Author` will cascade-delete all of its `books`.
+
+=== Unidirectional One-to-Many
+
+Without `belongsTo` on the other side, GORM uses a join table to maintain the relationship:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    String name
+    static hasMany = [books: Book]
+}
+
+class Book {
+    String title
+    // no belongsTo or author property
+}
+----
+
+The join table name defaults to `author_books` and can be customised — see xref:ormdsl-tableAndColumnNames[Table and Column Names].
+
+=== Sorting
+
+You can define a default sort order for the collection:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    static hasMany = [books: Book]
+    static mapping = {
+        books sort: 'title', order: 'asc'
+    }
+}
+----
+
+=== Adding and Removing Items
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def author = Author.get(1)
+author.addToBooks(new Book(title: 'Groovy in Action'))
+author.save()
+
+author.removeFromBooks(author.books.first())
+author.save()

+[[domainClasses-gormComposition]]
+== GORM Composition (Embedded Objects)
+
+GORM supports composition via `embedded`, which maps a non-domain class as a set of columns on the owning table rather than a separate table.
+
+=== Declaring an Embedded Component
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Address {
+    String street
+    String city
+    String postalCode
+    String country
+}
+
+class Person {
+    String name
+    Address address             // <1>
+
+    static embedded = ['address']   // <2>
+}
+----
+<1> `Address` is a plain Groovy class (not a domain class).
+<2> Declaring it in `embedded` maps its properties as columns on the `person` table.
+
+The `person` table will contain columns: `name`, `address_street`, `address_city`, `address_postal_code`, `address_country`.
+
+=== Overriding Column Names
+
+Use the `mapping` block to rename the embedded columns:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Person {
+    static embedded = ['address']
+    static mapping = {
+        address {
+            street  column: 'addr_street'
+            city    column: 'addr_city'
+        }
+    }
+}
+----
+
+=== Nullable Embedded Objects
+
+If the embedded object can be absent, mark it as nullable in constraints:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Person {
+    Address address
+    static embedded  = ['address']
+    static constraints = {
+        address nullable: true
+    }
+}
+----
+
+NOTE: Embedded components are always persisted as part of the owning entity. There is no separate table, no `id`, and no lifecycle management for the embedded object.

+[[domainClasses-inheritanceInGORM]]
+== Inheritance in GORM
+
+GORM supports standard Groovy/Java class inheritance. Domain classes in a hierarchy all benefit from GORM persistence.
+
+See xref:ormdsl-inheritanceStrategies[Inheritance Strategies] for the available mapping strategies (table-per-hierarchy, table-per-subclass, table-per-concrete-class) and how to configure them.
+
+=== Basic Inheritance
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Content {
+    String title
+    Date dateCreated
+}
+
+class BlogPost extends Content {
+    String body
+    String author
+}
+
+class Page extends Content {
+    String html
+    String slug
+}
+----
+
+By default all three classes are stored in a single `content` table (table-per-hierarchy). GORM uses a `class` discriminator column to distinguish rows.
+
+=== Querying the Hierarchy
+
+GORM queries are polymorphic by default — querying the parent class returns instances of all subclasses:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+List<Content> all = Content.list()      // returns BlogPost and Page instances
+
+List<BlogPost> posts = BlogPost.list()  // returns only BlogPost instances
+----
+
+=== Abstract Base Classes
+
+You can use abstract domain classes as the root of a hierarchy. Abstract classes have no corresponding rows and cannot be instantiated directly:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+abstract class Content {
+    String title
+}
+
+class BlogPost extends Content { ... }
+----
+
+TIP: Prefer table-per-hierarchy (the default) for most use cases. It requires no `JOIN` for polymorphic queries and is the most performant strategy.

+[[domainClasses-setsListsAndMaps]]
+== Sets, Lists and Maps
+
+By default `hasMany` creates a `java.util.Set` collection (unordered, no duplicates). GORM also supports `List` and `Map` collection types.
+
+=== Sets (Default)
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    static hasMany = [books: Book]  // Set<Book> by default
+}
+----
+
+=== Lists (Ordered)
+
+Declare the collection property as a `List` to use a positional, ordered collection. GORM adds an `index` column to the join table:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    List books                      // <1>
+    static hasMany = [books: Book]
+}
+----
+<1> Declaring the field type as `List` tells GORM to use a list mapping with a position index.
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def author = Author.get(1)
+author.books[0]     // <1>
+----
+<1> Access by position — Hibernate maintains the order using an `idx` column in the join table.
+
+=== Maps (Key-Value)
+
+Declare the collection property as a `Map` to store key-value pairs. The key is typically a `String`:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    Map books                       // <1>
+    static hasMany = [books: Book]
+}
+----
+<1> Keys and values are stored in the join table.
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def author = Author.get(1)
+author.books['grailsInAction']      // <1>
+----
+<1> Access by key.
+
+=== Sorting Sets
+
+For `Set`-based collections, define a default sort order in the `mapping` block:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    static hasMany = [books: Book]
+    static mapping = {
+        books sort: 'title', order: 'asc'
+    }
+}
+----
+
+TIP: `List` mappings incur the cost of maintaining a positional index column on every insert/reorder. Use them only when ordering matters. For most associations, the default `Set` is the better choice.

+== Introduction
+
+GORM for Hibernate 7 (grails-data-hibernate7) is the Hibernate 7 persistence layer for GORM, the GRAILS Object Relational Mapping framework. It provides a high-level, convention-over-configuration API for mapping Groovy domain classes to a relational database via Hibernate ORM 7 and Jakarta EE 10.
+
+=== Features
+
+* Convention-based ORM mapping — minimal configuration for common patterns
+* Full Hibernate 7 support with Jakarta EE 10 (`jakarta.*` packages)
+* Spring Boot 3.5 integration
+* Dynamic finders, named queries, `where` query DSL, HQL, and native SQL
+* Optimistic locking, second-level caching, and batch fetching
+* Comprehensive association mapping: one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-many, basic collections
+* Multiple inheritance strategies: table-per-hierarchy, table-per-subclass, table-per-concrete-class
+* Multi-tenancy support
+* Groovy `static mapping {}` DSL for full control over table/column names, types, and strategies
+
+=== Requirements
+
+[format="csv", options="header"]
+|===
+Component,Version
+JDK,17+
+Groovy,4.0.x
+Spring Boot,3.5.x
+Hibernate ORM,7.x
+Jakarta EE,10
+|===
+
+=== Quick Start
+
+Add the dependency to your Grails application and define a domain class:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Book {
+    String title
+    String author
+    Date dateCreated
+    Date lastUpdated
+
+    static constraints = {
+        title blank: false
+        author blank: false
+    }
+}
+----
+
+GORM automatically:
+
+* Creates a `book` table with `id`, `version`, `title`, `author`, `date_created`, and `last_updated` columns
+* Adds dynamic finders like `Book.findByTitle('...')`, `Book.findAllByAuthor('...')`
+* Injects `save()`, `delete()`, `get()`, `list()`, and other persistence methods

+== Upgrade Notes
+
+=== Grails 8 / Hibernate 7
+
+==== Query API — Breaking Changes for Injection Safety
+
+As part of the Grails 8 / Hibernate 7 security hardening, several GORM query methods now enforce safe parameterization at runtime.
+
+===== Single-argument HQL overloads require GString
+
+The following single-argument overloads now throw `UnsupportedOperationException` when passed a plain `String`:
+
+* `find(CharSequence)`
+* `findAll(CharSequence)`
+* `executeQuery(CharSequence)`
+* `executeUpdate(CharSequence)`
+
+These overloads are retained for GString use only. GORM extracts GString interpolations as named JDBC parameters, preventing HQL injection. Passing a pre-evaluated `String` bypasses this protection and is no longer permitted.
+
+*Migration*: Choose one of the following patterns:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+// Option 1: GString interpolation (GORM binds ${value} as :p0)
+Book.findAll("from Book where title = ${params.title}")
+
+// Option 2: Named parameters with plain String
+Book.findAll("from Book where title = :title", [title: params.title])
+
+// Option 3: Positional parameters
+Book.executeQuery("from Book where title like ?1", [params.title + '%'])
+----
+
+===== `findWithSql` / `findAllWithSql` renamed
+
+`findWithSql` and `findAllWithSql` are deprecated. Use `findWithNativeSql` and `findAllWithNativeSql` instead. The old names remain as delegating aliases for backwards compatibility.
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+// Before (deprecated)
+Book.findAllWithSql("select * from book where ...")
+
+// After
+Book.findAllWithNativeSql("select * from book where ...")
+----
+
+==== Schema-per-Tenant — Schema Names Are Now Quoted
+
+`DefaultSchemaHandler` now quotes schema names using the JDBC identifier quote character (`connection.metaData.identifierQuoteString`) before executing `SET SCHEMA` and `CREATE SCHEMA` DDL statements. This prevents SQL injection via tenant identifiers.
+
+Embedded quote characters are stripped from the schema name before quoting. If the JDBC driver does not support identifier quoting (returns `" "` or empty), the name is used unquoted as before — no behaviour change for such drivers.
+
+No application changes are required unless your tenant resolver intentionally produces schema names containing the database's identifier quote character (typically `"` or `` ` ``), in which case those characters will be stripped.

+[[persistenceBasics-cascades]]
+== Cascades
+
+Hibernate cascades propagate persistence operations from a parent entity to its associated children automatically.
+
+See xref:ormdsl-customCascadeBehaviour[Custom Cascade Behaviour] for the full reference on configuring cascade behaviour via the `mapping` block.
+
+=== Default Cascade Behaviour
+
+GORM applies `save-update` cascading by default on associations managed by `hasMany`. This means:
+
+- Saving an `Author` also saves any new or modified `Book` objects in its `books` collection.
+- **Deleting an `Author` does NOT automatically delete its `books`** unless `belongsTo` is declared or `cascade: 'all'` is configured.
+
+=== Cascade with `belongsTo`
+
+Declaring `belongsTo` on the owned side automatically adds cascade-delete from the owning side:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Book {
+    static belongsTo = [author: Author]     // <1>
+}
+----
+<1> Deleting an `Author` cascade-deletes all associated `Book` rows.
+
+=== Cascade with `all-delete-orphan`
+
+Use `all-delete-orphan` to delete child rows that are removed from the collection:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    static hasMany = [books: Book]
+    static mapping = {
+        books cascade: 'all-delete-orphan'
+    }
+}
+
+def author = Author.get(1)
+author.books.remove(author.books.first())   // <1>
+author.save()
+----
+<1> The removed `Book` will be deleted from the database.

+[[persistenceBasics-deletingObjects]]
+== Deleting Objects
+
+Call `delete()` on a loaded instance to remove it from the database:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def book = Book.get(1)
+book.delete()
+----
+
+=== Flush on Delete
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+book.delete(flush: true)    // issues DELETE immediately
+----
+
+=== Cascade Delete
+
+When a domain class declares `belongsTo`, deleting the parent also deletes its children:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    static hasMany = [books: Book]
+}
+
+class Book {
+    static belongsTo = [author: Author]
+}
+
+// Deletes the author AND all associated books
+Author.get(1).delete()
+----
+
+To delete without cascading, remove the `belongsTo` and configure cascade behaviour explicitly — see xref:ormdsl-customCascadeBehaviour[Custom Cascade Behaviour].
+
+=== Bulk Delete
+
+Use `deleteAll()` to delete all instances matching a criteria:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+Book.where { genre == 'Horror' }.deleteAll()
+----
+
+Or with HQL:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+Book.executeUpdate("delete Book where genre = :genre", [genre: 'Horror'])
+----

+[[persistenceBasics-fetching]]
+== Fetching
+
+Controlling how and when associated data is loaded is critical for application performance.
+
+See xref:ormdsl-fetchingDSL[Fetching Strategies] for full configuration details.
+
+=== Default: Lazy Loading
+
+Associations are loaded lazily by default — Hibernate does not query associated data until you access it:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def author = Author.get(1)      // SELECT * FROM author WHERE id=1
+author.books.size()             // SELECT * FROM book WHERE author_id=1 (triggered now)
+----
+
+=== N+1 Problem
+
+Loading a list of authors and accessing their books triggers one query per author:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+Author.list().each { author ->
+    println author.books.size()     // <1>
+}
+----
+<1> N additional queries for N authors — the N+1 problem.
+
+=== Solution: Eager Fetching with Join
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+// Option 1: query-time join
+def authors = Author.findAll {
+    join 'books'
+}
+
+// Option 2: mapping-level eager fetch (always eager — use with care)
+static mapping = {
+    books fetch: 'join'
+}
+----
+
+=== Batch Fetching
+
+A lighter alternative to `join` — fetch collections in batches to reduce query count without a cartesian product:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+static mapping = {
+    books batchSize: 10     // <1>
+}
+----
+<1> Hibernate will initialise up to 10 book collections with a single `IN` query.

+[[persistenceBasics-locking]]
+== Locking
+
+=== Optimistic Locking
+
+GORM enables optimistic locking by default via a `version` column. See xref:ormdsl-optimisticLockingAndVersioning[Optimistic Locking and Versioning] for full details.
+
+=== Pessimistic Locking
+
+To acquire a database-level lock on a row, use `lock()`:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+Book.withTransaction {
+    def book = Book.lock(1)         // <1>
+    book.title = 'Updated Safely'
+    book.save()
+}                                   // <2>
+----
+<1> Issues `SELECT ... FOR UPDATE`, preventing concurrent reads/writes to this row.
+<2> Lock is released when the transaction commits.
+
+You can also lock an already-loaded instance:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def book = Book.get(1)
+book.lock()                         // upgrades to a pessimistic lock
+----
+
+=== Refresh
+
+To reload the current state from the database (discarding in-memory changes):
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def book = Book.get(1)
+// ... another thread modifies the book ...
+book.refresh()                      // re-reads from the database
+----

+== Modification Checking
+
+Hibernate tracks which properties have been modified since the entity was loaded. GORM exposes this via `isDirty()` and related methods.
+
+=== Checking if an Instance is Dirty
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def book = Book.get(1)
+book.isDirty()      // false — just loaded
+
+book.title = 'New Title'
+book.isDirty()      // true — title has changed

+
+=== Checking a Specific Property
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+book.isDirty('title')   // true
+book.isDirty('genre')   // false — genre unchanged
+----

+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def book = Book.get(1)
+println book.title          // 'Original Title'
+book.title = 'New Title'
+println book.getPersistentValue('title')    // 'Original Title'
+----
+
+=== Dirty Properties
+
+Get a list of all property names that have changed:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def book = Book.get(1)
+book.title = 'New Title'
+book.genre = 'Fiction'
+println book.dirtyPropertyNames    // ['title', 'genre']

+[[persistenceBasics-savingAndUpdating]]
+== Saving and Updating
+
+=== Saving
+
+Call `save()` on a domain instance to persist it. GORM delegates to Hibernate's `Session.saveOrUpdate()`:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def book = new Book(title: 'Groovy in Action', author: 'Dierk König')
+book.save()
+----
+
+If validation fails, `save()` returns `null` and the errors are available on the instance:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def book = new Book(title: '')   // violates blank constraint
+if (!book.save()) {
+    book.errors.allErrors.each { println it }
+}
+----
+
+=== Fail on Error
+
+Use `failOnError: true` to throw a `ValidationException` instead of returning `null`:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+book.save(failOnError: true)    // throws ValidationException on constraint violation
+----
+
+=== Flush
+
+By default Hibernate delays SQL writes until the session is flushed. Force an immediate flush:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+book.save(flush: true)      // <1>
+----
+<1> Issues the `INSERT` or `UPDATE` immediately.
+
+=== Updating
+
+Modify properties on a loaded instance and call `save()`:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def book = Book.get(1)

+[[programmaticTransactions]]
+== Programmatic Transactions
+
+GORM integrates with Spring's transaction management. All persistence operations should run within a transaction.
+
+=== `withTransaction`
+
+Use `withTransaction` on any domain class to run a block within a transaction:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+Book.withTransaction {
+    new Book(title: 'Grails in Action', author: 'Glen Smith').save()
+    new Book(title: 'Groovy in Action', author: 'Dierk König').save()
+    // both are committed together; any exception rolls back both
+}
+----
+
+The closure receives a `TransactionStatus` parameter if needed:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+Book.withTransaction { TransactionStatus status ->
+    def book = new Book(title: 'Test')
+    book.save()
+    if (someCondition) {
+        status.setRollbackOnly()    // <1>
+    }
+}
+----
+<1> Marks the transaction for rollback without throwing an exception.
+
+=== `withNewTransaction`
+
+Start a new, independent transaction (suspending the current one if any):
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+Book.withNewTransaction {
+    // runs in a brand-new transaction regardless of any outer transaction
+}
+----
+
+=== `withSession`
+
+Access the underlying Hibernate `Session` directly:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+Book.withSession { session ->
+    session.flush()
+    session.clear()     // <1>
+}
+----
+<1> Evicts all entities from the first-level cache.
+
+=== Service-Layer Transactions
+
+In a Grails application, services are transactional by default. Annotate individual methods or the entire service class with Spring's `@Transactional` for fine-grained control:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+import org.springframework.transaction.annotation.Transactional
+
+@Transactional
+class BookService {
+    def transferOwnership(Long bookId, Long newAuthorId) {
+        def book = Book.get(bookId)
+        book.author = Author.get(newAuthorId)
+        book.save(failOnError: true)
+    }
+}

+[[querying]]
+== Querying
+
+GORM provides multiple querying mechanisms, ranging from simple dynamic finders to full SQL queries.
+
+* xref:querying-finders[Dynamic Finders] — auto-generated methods based on properties
+* xref:querying-whereQueries[Where Queries] — type-safe Groovy criteria DSL
+* xref:querying-criteria[Criteria Queries] — advanced query builder with Hibernate 7 DSL

+* xref:querying-hql[HQL Queries] — Hibernate Query Language
+* xref:querying-nativeSql[Native SQL Queries] — raw database SQL via Hibernate
+
+=== Dynamic Finders
+
+The simplest form of querying uses auto-generated finder methods based on property names:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+Book.findByTitle('Groovy in Action')
+Book.findAllByAuthorAndGenre('Dierk König', 'Tech')
+Book.countByGenre('Fiction')
+Book.findByTitleLike('%Groovy%')
+Book.findAllByPagesGreaterThan(300)
+Book.findAllByTitleIlike('%groovy%')    // case-insensitive
+----
+
+Finder methods support pagination:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+Book.findAllByGenre('Fiction', [max: 10, offset: 0, sort: 'title', order: 'asc'])
+----
+
+=== `get`, `list`, `count`

+
+Criteria is an advanced way to query that uses a Groovy builder to construct potentially complex queries. It is a much better approach than building up query strings using a `StringBuilder`.
+
+Criteria can be used either with the `createCriteria()` or `withCriteria(closure)` methods.
+
+The builder uses Hibernate 7's Criteria API (based on JPA Criteria). The nodes on this builder map to GORM query constraints which are then translated into JPA Criteria predicates.
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def c = Account.createCriteria()
+def results = c.list {
+    between("balance", 500, 1000)
+    eq("branch", "London")
+    or {
+        like("holderFirstName", "Fred%")
+        like("holderFirstName", "Barney%")
+    }
+    maxResults(10)
+    order("holderLastName", "desc")
+}
+----
+
+This criteria will select up to 10 `Account` objects in a List matching the following criteria:
+
+* `balance` is between 500 and 1000
+* `branch` is 'London'
+* `holderFirstName` starts with 'Fred' or 'Barney'
+
+The results will be sorted in descending order by `holderLastName`.
+
+If no records are found with the above criteria, an empty List is returned.
+
+[[HibernateCriteriaDSL]]
+==== Hibernate Criteria DSL
+
+In Hibernate 7, the criteria builder has been completely rewritten to leverage the JPA Criteria API. The `HibernateCriteriaBuilder` implements the GORM criteria DSL and provides seamless integration with Hibernate 7 features.
+
+The DSL supports all standard GORM criteria methods such as `eq`, `ne`, `gt`, `lt`, `ge`, `le`, `between`, `like`, `ilike`, `in`, `isNull`, `isNotNull`, `isEmpty`, `isNotEmpty`, and more.
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def results = Person.withCriteria {
+    ilike('firstName', 'b%')
+    or {
+        ge('age', 18)
+        isNull('parent')
+    }
+}
+----
+
+==== Conjunctions and Disjunctions
+
+
+As demonstrated in the previous example you can group criteria in a logical OR using an `or { }` block:
+
+[source,java]
+----
+or {
+    between("balance", 500, 1000)
+    eq("branch", "London")
+}
+----
+
+This also works with logical AND:
+
+[source,java]
+----
+and {
+    between("balance", 500, 1000)
+    eq("branch", "London")
+}
+----
+
+And you can also negate using logical NOT:
+
+[source,java]
+----
+not {
+    between("balance", 500, 1000)
+    eq("branch", "London")
+}
+----
+
+All top level conditions are implied to be AND'd together.
+
+
+==== Querying Associations
+
+
+Associations can be queried by having a node that matches the property name. For example say the `Account` class had many `Transaction` objects:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Account {
+    ...
+    static hasMany = [transactions: Transaction]
+    ...
+}
+----
+
+We can query this association by using the property name `transactions` as a builder node:
+
+[source,java]
+----
+def c = Account.createCriteria()
+def now = new Date()
+def results = c.list {
+    transactions {
+        between('date', now - 10, now)
+    }
+}
+----
+
+The above code will find all the `Account` instances that have performed `transactions` within the last 10 days.
+You can also nest such association queries within logical blocks:
+
+[source,java]
+----
+def c = Account.createCriteria()
+def now = new Date()
+def results = c.list {
+    or {
+        between('created', now - 10, now)
+        transactions {
+            between('date', now - 10, now)
+        }
+    }
+}
+----
+
+Here we find all accounts that have either performed transactions in the last 10 days OR have been recently created in the last 10 days.
+
+
+==== Querying with Projections
+
+
+Projections may be used to customise the results. Define a "projections" node within the criteria builder tree to use projections.
+
+[source,java]
+----
+def c = Account.createCriteria()
+
+def numberOfBranches = c.get {
+    projections {
+        countDistinct('branch')
+    }
+}
+----
+
+When multiple fields are specified in the projection, a List of values will be returned. A single value will be returned otherwise.
+
+Common projections include `count`, `countDistinct`, `groupProperty`, `avg`, `min`, `max`, `sum`, `id`, and `property`.
+
+
+==== SQL Restrictions
+
+
+You can access Hibernate's SQL Restrictions capabilities.
+
+[source,java]
+----
+def c = Person.createCriteria()
+
+def peopleWithShortFirstNames = c.list {
+    sqlRestriction "char_length(first_name) <= 4"
+}
+----
+
+SQL Restrictions may be parameterized to deal with SQL injection vulnerabilities related to dynamic restrictions.
+
+[source,java]
+----
+def c = Person.createCriteria()
+
+def peopleWithShortFirstNames = c.list {
+    sqlRestriction "char_length(first_name) < ? AND char_length(first_name) > ?", [maxValue, minValue]
+}
+----
+
+NOTE: Note that the parameter there is SQL. The `first_name` attribute referenced in the example refers to the persistence model, not the object model like in HQL queries.
+
+==== Setting properties in the Criteria instance
+
+
+The builder allows setting properties that control how the query is executed.
+
+[source,java]
+----
+import org.hibernate.FetchMode
+...
+def results = c.list {
+    maxResults(10)
+    firstResult(50)
+    cache(true)
+    readOnly(true)
+    lock(true) // Pessimistic locking
+    fetchMode("aRelationship", FetchMode.JOIN)
+}
+----
+
+==== Advanced Hibernate 7 Features
+
+The Hibernate 7 criteria builder supports several advanced features:
+
+* **Pessimistic Locking:** Use `lock(true)` to obtain a pessimistic write lock.
+* **Query Caching:** Use `cache(true)` to enable query caching for the results.
+* **Read-Only Mode:** Use `readOnly(true)` to disable dirty checking for loaded entities.
+* **Fetch Mode:** Use `fetchMode("association", FetchMode.JOIN)` to specify Eager/Lazy fetching strategies.
+
+
+==== Querying with Eager Fetching
+
+
+Eager fetching can be achieved using a criteria query:
+
+[source,java]
+----
+def criteria = Task.createCriteria()
+def tasks = criteria.list{
+    eq "assignee.id", task.assignee.id
+    join 'assignee'
+    join 'project'
+    order 'priority', 'asc'
+}
+----
+
+Notice the usage of the `join` method: it tells the criteria API to use a `JOIN` to fetch the named associations with the `Task` instances. It's probably best not to use this for one-to-many associations though, because you will most likely end up with duplicate results. Instead, use the 'select' fetch mode:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+import org.hibernate.FetchMode
+...
+def results = Airport.withCriteria {
+    eq "region", "EMEA"
+    fetchMode "flights", FetchMode.SELECT
+}
+----
+
+Although this approach triggers a second query to get the `flights` association, you will get reliable results  - even with the `maxResults` option.
+
+NOTE: `fetchMode` and `join` are general settings of the query and can only be specified at the top-level, i.e. you cannot use them inside projections or association constraints.
+
+
+==== Method Reference
+
+
+If you invoke the builder with no method name such as:
+
+[source,java]
+----
+c { ... }
+----
+
+The build defaults to listing all the results and hence the above is equivalent to:
+
+[source,java]
+----
+c.list { ... }
+----
+
+[format="csv", options="header"]
+|===
+
+Method,Description
+*list*,This is the default method. It returns all matching rows.
+*get*,Returns a unique result set i.e. just one row.
+*scroll*,Returns a scrollable result set.
+*listDistinct*,Allows listing only distinct entities.
+*count*,Returns the number of matching rows.
+|===
+
+
+==== Combining Criteria
+
+
+You can combine multiple criteria closures in the following way:
+
+[source,java]
+----
+def emeaCriteria = {
+    eq "region", "EMEA"
+}
+
+def results = Airport.withCriteria {
+    emeaCriteria.delegate = delegate
+    emeaCriteria()
+    flights {
+        like "number", "BA%"
+    }
+}
+----
+
+This technique requires that each criteria must refer to the same domain class (i.e. `Airport`).
+A more flexible approach is to use Detached Criteria, as described in the following section.

+
+[[detachedCriteria]]
+=== Detached Criteria
+
+Detached Criteria are criteria queries that are not associated with any given database session/connection. Detached Criteria queries have many uses including allowing you to create common reusable criteria queries, execute subqueries and execute batch updates/deletes.
+
+==== Building Detached Criteria Queries
+
+The primary point of entry for using the Detached Criteria is the `grails.gorm.DetachedCriteria` class which accepts a domain class as the only argument to its constructor:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+import grails.gorm.*
+...
+def criteria = new DetachedCriteria(Person)
+----
+
+Once you have obtained a reference to a detached criteria instance you can execute <<querying-whereQueries,where>> queries or <<querying-criteria,criteria>> queries to build up the appropriate query. To build a normal criteria query you can use the `build` method:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def criteria = new DetachedCriteria(Person).build {
+    eq 'lastName', 'Simpson'
+}
+----
+
+Note that methods on the `DetachedCriteria` instance *do not* mutate the original object but instead return a new query. In other words, you have to use the return value of the `build` method to obtain the mutated criteria object:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def criteria = new DetachedCriteria(Person).build {
+    eq 'lastName', 'Simpson'
+}
+def bartQuery = criteria.build {
+    eq 'firstName', 'Bart'
+}
+----
+
+
+==== Executing Detached Criteria Queries
+
+
+Unlike regular criteria, Detached Criteria are lazy, in that no query is executed at the point of definition. Once a Detached Criteria query has been constructed then there are a number of useful query methods which are summarized in the table below:
+
+[format="csv", options="header"]
+|===
+
+Method,Description
+*list*,List all matching entities
+*get*,Return a single matching result
+*count*,Count all matching records
+*exists*,Return true if any matching records exist
+*deleteAll*,Delete all matching records
+*updateAll(Map)*,Update all matching records with the given properties
+|===
+
+As an example the following code will list the first 4 matching records sorted by the `firstName` property:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def criteria = new DetachedCriteria(Person).build {
+    eq 'lastName', 'Simpson'
+}
+def results = criteria.list(max:4, sort:"firstName")
+----
+
+You can also supply additional criteria to the list method:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def results = criteria.list(max:4, sort:"firstName") {
+    gt 'age', 30
+}
+----
+
+To retrieve a single result you can use the `get` or `find` methods (which are synonyms):
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+Person p = criteria.find() // or criteria.get()
+----
+
+The `DetachedCriteria` class itself also implements the `Iterable` interface which means that it can be treated like a list:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def criteria = new DetachedCriteria(Person).build {
+    eq 'lastName', 'Simpson'
+}
+criteria.each {
+    println it.firstName
+}
+----
+
+In this case the query is only executed when the `each` method is called. The same applies to all other Groovy collection iteration methods.
+
+You can also execute dynamic finders on `DetachedCriteria` just like on domain classes. For example:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def criteria = new DetachedCriteria(Person).build {
+    eq 'lastName', 'Simpson'
+}
+def bart = criteria.findByFirstName("Bart")
+----
+
+
+==== Using Detached Criteria for Subqueries
+
+
+Within the context of a regular criteria query you can use `DetachedCriteria` to execute subquery. For example if you want to find all people who are older than the average age the following query will accomplish that:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def results = Person.withCriteria {
+     gt "age", new DetachedCriteria(Person).build {
+         projections {
+             avg "age"
+         }
+     }
+     order "firstName"
+ }
+----
+
+Notice that in this case the subquery class is the same as the original criteria query class (i.e. `Person`) and hence the query can be shortened to:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def results = Person.withCriteria {
+     gt "age", {
+         projections {
+             avg "age"
+         }
+     }
+     order "firstName"
+ }
+----
+
+If the subquery class differs from the original criteria query then you will have to use the original syntax.
+
+In the previous example the projection ensured that only a single result was returned (the average age). If your subquery returns multiple results then there are different criteria methods that need to be used to compare the result. For example to find all the people older than the ages 18 to 65 a `gtAll` query can be used:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def results = Person.withCriteria {
+    gtAll "age", {
+        projections {
+            property "age"
+        }
+        between 'age', 18, 65
+    }
+
+    order "firstName"
+}
+----
+
+The following table summarizes criteria methods for operating on subqueries that return multiple results:
+
+[format="csv", options="header"]
+|===
+
+Method,Description
+*gtAll*,greater than all subquery results
+*geAll*,greater than or equal to all subquery results
+*ltAll*,less than all subquery results
+*leAll*,less than or equal to all subquery results
+*eqAll*,equal to all subquery results
+*neAll*,not equal to all subquery results
+|===
+
+
+==== Batch Operations with Detached Criteria
+
+
+The `grails.gorm.DetachedCriteria` class can be used to execute batch operations such as batch updates and deletes. For example, the following query will update all people with the surname "Simpson" to have the surname "Bloggs":
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def criteria = new DetachedCriteria(Person).build {
+    eq 'lastName', 'Simpson'
+}
+int total = criteria.updateAll(lastName:"Bloggs")
+----
+
+NOTE: Note that one limitation with regards to batch operations is that join queries (queries that query associations) are not allowed within the `DetachedCriteria` instance.
+
+To batch delete records you can use the `deleteAll` method:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def criteria = new DetachedCriteria(Person).build {
+    eq 'lastName', 'Simpson'
+}
+int total = criteria.deleteAll()
+----

+GORM supports the concept of *dynamic finders*. A dynamic finder looks like a static method invocation, but the methods themselves don't actually exist in any form at the code level.
+
+Instead, a method is auto-magically generated using code synthesis at runtime, based on the properties of a given class. Take for example the `Book` class:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Book {
+    String title
+    Date releaseDate
+    Author author
+}
+----
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+class Author {
+    String name
+}
+----
+
+The `Book` class has properties such as `title`, `releaseDate` and `author`. These can be used by the `findBy*` and `findAllBy*` methods in the form of "method expressions":
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def book = Book.findByTitle("The Stand")
+
+book = Book.findByTitleLike("Harry Pot%")
+
+book = Book.findByReleaseDateBetween(firstDate, secondDate)
+
+book = Book.findByReleaseDateGreaterThan(someDate)
+
+book = Book.findByTitleLikeOrReleaseDateLessThan("%Something%", someDate)
+----
+
+==== Method Expressions
+
+A method expression in GORM is made up of the prefix such as `findBy*` followed by an expression that combines one or more properties. The basic form is:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+Book.findBy(<<Property>><<Comparator>><<Boolean Operator>>)?<<Property>><<Comparator>>
+----
+
+The tokens marked with a '?' are optional. Each comparator changes the nature of the query. For example:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def book = Book.findByTitle("The Stand")
+
+book =  Book.findByTitleLike("Harry Pot%")
+----
+
+In the above example the first query is equivalent to equality whilst the latter, due to the `Like` comparator, is equivalent to a SQL `like` expression.
+
+The possible comparators include:
+
+* `InList` - In the list of given values
+* `LessThan` - less than a given value
+* `LessThanEquals` - less than or equal a give value
+* `GreaterThan` - greater than a given value
+* `GreaterThanEquals` - greater than or equal a given value
+* `Like` - Equivalent to a SQL like expression
+* `Ilike` - Similar to a `Like`, except case insensitive
+* `NotEqual` - Negates equality
+* `InRange` - Between the `from` and `to` values of a Groovy Range
+* `Rlike` - Performs a Regexp LIKE in MySQL or Oracle otherwise falls back to `Like`
+* `Between` - Between two values (requires two arguments)
+* `IsNotNull` - Not a null value (doesn't take an argument)
+* `IsNull` - Is a null value (doesn't take an argument)
+
+Notice that the last three require different numbers of method arguments compared to the rest, as demonstrated in the following example:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def now = new Date()
+def lastWeek = now - 7
+def book = Book.findByReleaseDateBetween(lastWeek, now)
+
+books = Book.findAllByReleaseDateIsNull()
+books = Book.findAllByReleaseDateIsNotNull()
+----
+
+==== Boolean logic (AND/OR)
+
+Method expressions can also use a boolean operator to combine two or more criteria:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def books = Book.findAllByTitleLikeAndReleaseDateGreaterThan(
+                      "%Java%", new Date() - 30)
+----
+
+In this case we're using `And` in the middle of the query to make sure both conditions are satisfied, but you could equally use `Or`:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def books = Book.findAllByTitleLikeOrReleaseDateGreaterThan(
+                      "%Java%", new Date() - 30)
+----
+
+You can combine as many criteria as you like, but they must all be combined with `And` or all `Or`. If you need to combine `And` and `Or` or if the number of criteria creates a very long method name, just convert the query to a <<criteria,Criteria>> or <<hql,HQL>> query.
+
+
+==== Querying Associations
+
+
+Associations can also be used within queries:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def author = Author.findByName("Stephen King")
+
+def books = author ? Book.findAllByAuthor(author) : []
+----
+
+In this case if the `Author` instance is not null we use it in a query to obtain all the `Book` instances for the given `Author`.
+
+
+==== Pagination and Sorting
+
+
+The same pagination and sorting parameters available on the `list()` method can also be used with dynamic finders by supplying a map as the final parameter:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def books = Book.findAllByTitleLike("Harry Pot%",
+               [max: 3, offset: 2, sort: "title", order: "desc"])
+----

+[[querying-hql]]
+== HQL Queries
+
+GORM supports querying using http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/orm/current/querylanguage/html_single/Hibernate_Query_Language_Guide.html[Hibernate Query Language (HQL)], which is an object-oriented query language similar to SQL but operating on domain class names and properties rather than table and column names.
+
+=== Basic HQL
+
+The following static methods accept HQL strings:
+
+* `find(CharSequence)` — returns the first matching instance
+* `findAll(CharSequence)` — returns all matching instances
+* `executeQuery(CharSequence)` — returns a list (supports projections)
+* `executeUpdate(CharSequence)` — executes a bulk update/delete, returns the count
+
+=== Safe Parameterization with GString
+
+GORM automatically converts Groovy http://docs.groovy-lang.org/latest/html/documentation/#_string_interpolation[GString] interpolations into safe named parameters before the query reaches Hibernate. This is the **preferred** way to pass user-supplied values.
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+String title = params.title  // user input
+
+// ✅ SAFE — ${title} is extracted and bound as :p0
+List results = Book.findAll("from Book b where b.title = ${title}")
+
+// ✅ SAFE — multiple interpolations become :p0, :p1
+List results = Book.findAll(
+    "from Book b where b.title like ${title} and b.genre = ${genre}")
+----
+
+WARNING: The single-argument overloads (`find`, `findAll`, `executeQuery`, `executeUpdate`) only accept a Groovy `GString`. Passing a plain `String` throws `UnsupportedOperationException` to prevent accidental injection via string concatenation.
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+// ❌ BLOCKED — throws UnsupportedOperationException at runtime
+String hql = "from Book where title = '" + userInput + "'"
+Book.findAll(hql)
+
+// ✅ Use the parameterized overload for plain String queries
+Book.findAll("from Book where title = :title", [title: userInput])
+----
+
+=== Named Parameters
+
+Use the `(CharSequence, Map)` overload to pass named parameters explicitly. This also accepts a plain `String`, making it safe for dynamically constructed queries where GString syntax is inconvenient.
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+// Named parameters — safe with plain String
+List results = Book.findAll(
+    "from Book b where b.title = :title and b.author = :author",
+    [title: params.title, author: params.author])
+
+Book.executeUpdate(
+    "update Book set active = :flag where genre = :genre",
+    [flag: false, genre: 'Horror'])
+----
+
+=== Positional Parameters
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+// Positional parameters (?1, ?2, ...)
+List results = Book.executeQuery(
+    "from Book b where b.title like ?1 and b.genre = ?2",
+    ['%Groovy%', 'Tech'])
+----
+
+=== Pagination and Sorting
+
+All `findAll` and `executeQuery` overloads accept a settings map as the last argument:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+List results = Book.findAll(
+    "from Book b where b.genre = ${genre} order by b.title",
+    [max: 10, offset: 20])
+
+List results = Book.executeQuery(
+    "from Book b where b.genre = :genre",
+    [genre: 'Tech'],
+    [max: 5, offset: 0, cache: true])
+----
+
+=== Bulk Updates and Deletes
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+// Bulk update with named params
+int count = Book.executeUpdate(
+    "update Book set active = :flag where publishedYear < :year",
+    [flag: false, year: 2000])
+
+// Bulk delete
+int count = Book.executeUpdate(
+    "delete Book where active = false")

+[[querying-native-sql]]
+== Native SQL Queries
+
+GORM provides `findWithNativeSql` and `findAllWithNativeSql` for executing raw SQL when HQL or the Criteria API cannot express the query you need (e.g. database-specific functions, complex joins, or legacy SQL).
+
+WARNING: Native SQL bypasses Hibernate's type system and object mapping. Prefer HQL, the Criteria API, or dynamic finders wherever possible. Use native SQL only when there is no higher-level alternative.
+
+=== Methods
+
+[cols="1,2"]
+|===
+| Method | Description
+
+| `findWithNativeSql(CharSequence sql)`
+| Returns the first result mapped to the domain class
+
+| `findWithNativeSql(CharSequence sql, Map args)`
+| Returns the first result; `args` controls pagination (`max`, `offset`, `cache`)
+
+| `findAllWithNativeSql(CharSequence sql)`
+| Returns all results mapped to the domain class
+
+| `findAllWithNativeSql(CharSequence sql, Map args)`
+| Returns all results; `args` controls pagination
+|===
+
+=== Safe Usage — GString Value Parameters
+
+When a query contains user-supplied **values** (not identifiers), use Groovy GString interpolation. GORM extracts each `${expression}` and binds it as a named JDBC parameter, preventing injection.
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+String nameFilter = params.name  // user input
+
+// ✅ SAFE — ${nameFilter} is bound as :p0, never inlined into the SQL string
+List results = Club.findAllWithNativeSql(
+    "select * from club c where c.name like ${nameFilter} order by c.name")
+----
+
+=== Static SQL (No User Input)
+
+A plain `String` constant with no user data is safe and accepted directly.
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+// ✅ SAFE — no user input, static SQL
+List results = Club.findAllWithNativeSql(
+    "select * from club c order by c.name")
+----
+
+=== What Cannot Be Parameterized
+
+SQL identifiers — table names, column names, schema names — **cannot** be bound as JDBC parameters. Do not interpolate them from user input under any circumstances.
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+// ❌ UNSAFE — table name from user input, cannot be made safe via GString
+String table = params.table
+Club.findAllWithNativeSql("select * from ${table}")  // DO NOT DO THIS
+
+// ❌ UNSAFE — string concatenation, no protection at all
+Club.findAllWithNativeSql("select * from club where name = '" + userInput + "'")
+----
+
+If you need dynamic identifiers (e.g. schema-per-tenant), use the JDBC identifier quoting API (`connection.metaData.identifierQuoteString`) to quote and sanitize the name before use — the same mechanism used internally by `DefaultSchemaHandler`.
+
+=== Deprecated Names
+
+`findWithSql` and `findAllWithSql` are deprecated aliases for `findWithNativeSql` and `findAllWithNativeSql`. They remain functional for backwards compatibility but will be removed in a future release.
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+// Deprecated — replace with findAllWithNativeSql
+Club.findAllWithSql("select * from club")
+
+// Preferred
+Club.findAllWithNativeSql("select * from club")

+
+The link:../api/org/grails/datastore/gorm/GormEntity.html#where(groovy.lang.Closure)[where()] method builds on the support for <<detachedCriteria,Detached Criteria>> by providing an enhanced, compile-time checked query DSL for common queries. The `where` method is more flexible than dynamic finders, less verbose than criteria and provides a powerful mechanism to compose queries.
+
+
+==== Basic Querying
+
+
+The link:../api/org/grails/datastore/gorm/GormEntity.html#where(groovy.lang.Closure)[where()] method accepts a closure that looks very similar to Groovy's regular collection methods. The closure should define the logical criteria in regular Groovy syntax, for example:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def query = Person.where {
+   firstName == "Bart"
+}
+Person bart = query.find()
+----
+
+The returned object is a link:../api/grails/gorm/DetachedCriteria.html[DetachedCriteria] instance, which means it is not associated with any particular database connection or session. This means you can use the `where` method to define common queries at the class level:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+import grails.gorm.*
+
+class Person {
+    static DetachedCriteria<Person> simpsons = where {
+         lastName == "Simpson"
+    }
+    ...
+}
+...
+Person.simpsons.each { Person p ->
+    println p.firstname
+}
+----
+
+Query execution is lazy and only happens upon usage of the <<detachedCriteria,DetachedCriteria>> instance. If you want to execute a where-style query immediately there are variations of the `findAll` and `find` methods to accomplish this:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def results = Person.findAll {
+     lastName == "Simpson"
+}
+def results = Person.findAll(sort:"firstName") {
+     lastName == "Simpson"
+}
+Person p = Person.find { firstName == "Bart" }
+----
+
+Each Groovy operator maps onto a regular criteria method. The following table provides a map of Groovy operators to methods:
+
+[format="csv", options="header"]
+|===
+Operator,Criteria Method,Description
+*`==`*,eq,Equal to
+*`!=`*,ne,Not equal to
+*`>`*,gt,Greater than
+*`<`*,lt,Less than
+*`>=`*,ge,Greater than or equal to
+*`<=`*,le,Less than or equal to
+*`in`*,inList,Contained within the given list
+*`==~`*,like,Like a given string
+*`=~`*,ilike,Case insensitive like
+|===
+
+It is possible use regular Groovy comparison operators and logic to formulate complex queries:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def query = Person.where {
+    (lastName != "Simpson" && firstName != "Fred") || (firstName == "Bart" && age > 9)
+}
+def results = query.list(sort:"firstName")
+----
+
+The Groovy regex matching operators map onto like and ilike queries unless the expression on the right hand side is a `Pattern` object, in which case they map onto an `rlike` query:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def query = Person.where {
+     firstName ==~ ~/B.+/
+}
+----
+
+NOTE: Note that `rlike` queries are only supported if the underlying database supports regular expressions
+
+A `between` criteria query can be done by combining the `in` keyword with a range:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def query = Person.where {
+     age in 18..65
+}
+----
+
+Finally, you can do `isNull` and `isNotNull` style queries by using `null` with regular comparison operators:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def query = Person.where {
+     middleName == null
+}
+----
+
+==== Query Composition
+
+
+Since the return value of the `where` method is a <<detachedCriteria,DetachedCriteria>> instance you can compose new queries from the original query:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+DetachedCriteria<Person> query = Person.where {
+     lastName == "Simpson"
+}
+DetachedCriteria<Person> bartQuery = query.where {
+     firstName == "Bart"
+}
+Person p = bartQuery.find()
+----
+
+Note that you cannot pass a closure defined as a variable into the `where` method unless it has been explicitly cast to a `DetachedCriteria` instance. In other words the following will produce an error:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def callable = {
+    lastName == "Simpson"
+}
+def query = Person.where(callable)
+----
+
+The above must be written as follows:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+import grails.gorm.DetachedCriteria
+
+def callable = {
+    lastName == "Simpson"
+} as DetachedCriteria<Person>
+def query = Person.where(callable)
+----
+
+As you can see the closure definition is cast (using the Groovy `as` keyword) to a <<detachedCriteria,DetachedCriteria>> instance targeted at the `Person` class.
+
+
+==== Conjunction, Disjunction and Negation
+
+
+As mentioned previously you can combine regular Groovy logical operators (`||` and `&&`) to form conjunctions and disjunctions:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def query = Person.where {
+    (lastName != "Simpson" && firstName != "Fred") || (firstName == "Bart" && age > 9)
+}
+----
+
+You can also negate a logical comparison using `!`:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def query = Person.where {
+    firstName == "Fred" && !(lastName == 'Simpson')
+}
+----
+
+
+==== Property Comparison Queries
+
+
+If you use a property name on both the left hand and right side of a comparison expression then the appropriate property comparison criteria is automatically used:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def query = Person.where {
+   firstName == lastName
+}
+----
+
+The following table described how each comparison operator maps onto each criteria property comparison method:
+
+[format="csv", options="header"]
+|===
+
+Operator,Criteria Method,Description
+*==*,eqProperty,Equal to
+*!=*,neProperty,Not equal to
+*>*,gtProperty,Greater than
+*<*,ltProperty,Less than
+*>=*,geProperty,Greater than or equal to
+*<=*,leProperty,Less than or equal to
+|===
+
+
+==== Querying Associations
+
+
+Associations can be queried by using the dot operator to specify the property name of the association to be queried:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def query = Pet.where {
+    owner.firstName == "Joe" || owner.firstName == "Fred"
+}
+----
+
+You can group multiple criterion inside a closure method call where the name of the method matches the association name:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def query = Person.where {
+    pets { name == "Jack" || name == "Joe" }
+}
+----
+
+This technique can be combined with other top-level criteria:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def query = Person.where {
+     pets { name == "Jack" } || firstName == "Ed"
+}
+----
+
+For collection associations it is possible to apply queries to the size of the collection:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def query = Person.where {
+       pets.size() == 2
+}
+----
+
+The following table shows which operator maps onto which criteria method for each size() comparison:
+
+[format="csv", options="header"]
+|===
+
+Operator,Criteria Method,Description
+*==*,sizeEq,The collection size is equal to
+*!=*,sizeNe,The collection size is not equal to
+*>*,sizeGt,The collection size is greater than
+*<*,sizeLt,The collection size is less than
+*>=*,sizeGe,The collection size is greater than or equal to
+*<=*,sizeLe,The collection size is less than or equal to
+|===
+
+==== Query Aliases and Sorting
+
+If you define a query for an association an alias is automatically generated for the query. For example the following query:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def query = Pet.where {
+    owner.firstName == "Fred"
+}
+----
+
+Will generate an alias for the `owner` association such as `owner_alias_0`. These generated aliases are fine for most cases, but are not useful if you want to later sort or use a projection on the results. For example the following query will fail:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+// fails because a dynamic alias is used
+Pet.where {
+    owner.firstName == "Fred"
+}.list(sort:"owner.lastName")
+----
+
+If you plan to sort the results then an explicit alias should be used and these can be defined by simply declaring a variable in the `where` query:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def query = Pet.where {
+    def o1 = owner <1>
+    o1.firstName == "Fred" <2>
+}.list(sort:'o1.lastName') <3>
+----
+
+<1> Define an alias called `o1`
+<2> Use the alias in the query itself
+<3> Use the alias to sort the results
+
+By assigning the name of an association to a local variable it will automatically become an alias usable within the query itself and also for the purposes of sorting or projecting the results.
+
+==== Subqueries
+
+
+It is possible to execute subqueries within where queries. For example to find all the people older than the average age the following query can be used:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+final query = Person.where {
+  age > avg(age)
+}
+----
+
+The following table lists the possible subqueries:
+
+[format="csv", options="header"]
+|===
+
+Method,Description
+*avg*,The average of all values
+*sum*,The sum of all values
+*max*,The maximum value
+*min*,The minimum value
+*count*,The count of all values
+*property*,Retrieves a property of the resulting entities
+|===
+
+You can apply additional criteria to any subquery by using the `of` method and passing in a closure containing the criteria:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def query = Person.where {
+  age > avg(age).of { lastName == "Simpson" } && firstName == "Homer"
+}
+----
+
+Since the `property` subquery returns multiple results, the criterion used compares all results. For example the following query will find all people younger than people with the surname "Simpson":
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+Person.where {
+    age < property(age).of { lastName == "Simpson" }
+}
+----
+
+
+
+==== More Advanced Subqueries in GORM
+
+
+The support for subqueries has been extended. You can now use in  with nested subqueries
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def results = Person.where {
+    firstName in where { age < 18 }.firstName
+}.list()
+----
+
+Criteria and where queries can be seamlessly mixed:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def results = Person.withCriteria {
+    notIn "firstName", Person.where { age < 18 }.firstName
+ }
+----
+
+Subqueries can be used with projections:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def results = Person.where {
+    age > where { age > 18 }.avg('age')
+}
+----
+
+Correlated queries that span two domain classes can be used:
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def employees = Employee.where {
+    region.continent in ['APAC', "EMEA"]
+    }.id()
+    def results = Sale.where {
+    employee in employees && total > 100000
+    }.employee.list()
+----
+
+And support for aliases (cross query references) using simple variable declarations has been added to where queries:
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def query = Employee.where {
+    def em1 = Employee
+    exists Sale.where {
+        def s1 = Sale
+        def em2 = employee
+        return em2.id == em1.id
+    }.id()
+}
+def results = query.list()
+----
+
+
+
+==== Other Functions
+
+
+There are several functions available to you within the context of a query. These are summarized in the table below:
+
+[format="csv", options="header"]
+|===
+
+Method,Description
+*second*,The second of a date property
+*minute*,The minute of a date property
+*hour*,The hour of a date property
+*day*,The day of the month of a date property
+*month*,The month of a date property
+*year*,The year of a date property
+*lower*,Converts a string property to lower case
+*upper*,Converts a string property to upper case
+*length*,The length of a string property
+*trim*,Trims a string property
+|===
+
+NOTE: Currently functions can only be applied to properties or associations of domain classes. You cannot, for example, use a function on a result of a subquery.
+
+For example the following query can be used to find all pet's born in 2011:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def query = Pet.where {
+    year(birthDate) == 2011
+}
+----
+
+You can also apply functions to associations:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def query = Person.where {
+    year(pets.birthDate) == 2009
+}
+----
+
+
+
+==== Batch Updates and Deletes
+
+
+Since each `where` method call returns a <<detachedCriteria,DetachedCriteria>> instance, you can use `where` queries to execute batch operations such as batch updates and deletes. For example, the following query will update all people with the surname "Simpson" to have the surname "Bloggs":
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+DetachedCriteria<Person> query = Person.where {
+    lastName == 'Simpson'
+}
+int total = query.updateAll(lastName:"Bloggs")
+----
+
+NOTE: Note that one limitation with regards to batch operations is that join queries (queries that query associations) are not allowed.
+
+To batch delete records you can use the `deleteAll` method:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+DetachedCriteria<Person> query = Person.where {
+    lastName == 'Simpson'
+}
+int total = query.deleteAll()
+----

+[[quickStartGuide-basicCRUD]]
+== Basic CRUD
+
+Every GORM domain class automatically gets Create, Read, Update, and Delete (CRUD) operations.
+
+=== Create
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+// Constructor with named parameters
+def book = new Book(title: 'Groovy in Action', author: 'Dierk König')
+book.save()
+
+// Or using the create() factory method
+def book = Book.create(title: 'Grails in Action', author: 'Glen Smith')
+----
+
+=== Read
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+// By primary key
+def book = Book.get(1)
+
+// Returns null if not found
+def book = Book.get(999)    // null
+
+// Get multiple by IDs
+def books = Book.getAll(1, 2, 3)
+
+// Load a proxy (no immediate SELECT)
+def book = Book.load(1)
+
+// List all
+def books = Book.list()
+
+// With pagination
+def books = Book.list(max: 10, offset: 0, sort: 'title', order: 'asc')
+
+// Dynamic finders
+def book  = Book.findByTitle('Groovy in Action')
+def books = Book.findAllByAuthor('Dierk König')
+def count = Book.countByAuthor('Dierk König')
+----
+
+=== Update
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def book = Book.get(1)
+book.title = 'Updated Title'
+book.save()
+----
+
+=== Delete
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def book = Book.get(1)
+book.delete()
+----
+
+=== Validation
+
+`save()` runs constraints before persisting and returns `null` if validation fails:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+def book = new Book(title: '')          // blank title violates constraint
+if (!book.save()) {
+    println book.errors.allErrors       // print validation errors
+}
+
+// Throw on failure instead
+book.save(failOnError: true)            // throws ValidationException
+----
+
+=== Transactions
+
+GORM operations run inside Hibernate sessions. Use `withTransaction` for explicit transaction control:
+
+[source,groovy]
+----
+Book.withTransaction {
+    def book = new Book(title: 'Tx Book', author: 'Author')
+    book.save()
+    // any exception here rolls back the transaction
+}
+----

+ *
+ * <p><b>A deprecation note:</b> While {@link HibernateTemplate} and this operations
+ * interface are being kept around for backwards compatibility in terms of the data
+ * access implementation style in Spring applications, we strongly recommend the use

+ * This in particular affects parameterized queries where - on Java 8+ - a custom
+ * {@link HibernateCallback} lambda code block with {@code createQuery} and several
+ * {@code setParameter} calls on the {@link org.hibernate.query.Query} interface
+ * is an elegant solution, to be executed via the general {@link #execute} method.

+/**
+ * Helper class that simplifies Hibernate data access code. Automatically
+ * converts HibernateExceptions into DataAccessExceptions, following the
+ * {@code org.springframework.dao} exception hierarchy.
+ *
+ * <p>The central method is {@code execute}, supporting Hibernate access code
+ * implementing the {@link HibernateCallback} interface. It provides Hibernate Session
+ * handling such that neither the HibernateCallback implementation nor the calling
+ * code needs to explicitly care about retrieving/closing Hibernate Sessions,
+ * or handling Session lifecycle exceptions. For typical single step actions,
+ * there are various convenience methods (find, load, saveOrUpdate, delete).
+ *
+ * <p>Can be used within a service implementation via direct instantiation
+ * with a SessionFactory reference, or get prepared in an application context
+ * and given to services as bean reference. Note: The SessionFactory should
+ * always be configured as bean in the application context, in the first case
+ * given to the service directly, in the second case to the prepared template.
+ *
+ * <p><b>NOTE: Hibernate access code can also be coded against the native Hibernate
+ * {@link Session}. Hence, for newly started projects, consider adopting the standard
+ * Hibernate style of coding against {@link SessionFactory#getCurrentSession()}.
+ * Alternatively, use {@link #execute(HibernateCallback)} with Java 8 lambda code blocks
+ * against the callback-provided {@code Session} which results in elegant code as well,
+ * decoupled from the Hibernate Session lifecycle. The remaining operations on this
+ * HibernateTemplate are deprecated in the meantime and primarily exist as a migration
+ * helper for older Hibernate 3.x/4.x data access code in existing applications.</b>

+/**
+ * {@link org.springframework.transaction.PlatformTransactionManager}
+ * implementation for a single Hibernate {@link SessionFactory}.
+ * Binds a Hibernate Session from the specified factory to the thread,
+ * potentially allowing for one thread-bound Session per factory.
+ * {@code SessionFactory.getCurrentSession()} is required for Hibernate
+ * access code that needs to support this transaction handling mechanism,
+ * with the SessionFactory being configured with {@link SpringSessionContext}.
+ *
+ * <p>Supports custom isolation levels, and timeouts that get applied as
+ * Hibernate transaction timeouts.
+ *
+ * <p>This transaction manager is appropriate for applications that use a single
+ * Hibernate SessionFactory for transactional data access, but it also supports
+ * direct DataSource access within a transaction (i.e. plain JDBC code working
+ * with the same DataSource). This allows for mixing services which access Hibernate
+ * and services which use plain JDBC (without being aware of Hibernate)!
+ * Application code needs to stick to the same simple Connection lookup pattern as
+ * with {@link org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DataSourceTransactionManager}
+ * (i.e. {@link org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DataSourceUtils#getConnection}
+ * or going through a
+ * {@link org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.TransactionAwareDataSourceProxy}).
+ *
+ * <p>Note: To be able to register a DataSource's Connection for plain JDBC code,
+ * this instance needs to be aware of the DataSource ({@link #setDataSource}).
+ * The given DataSource should obviously match the one used by the given SessionFactory.
+ *
+ * <p>JTA (usually through {@link org.springframework.transaction.jta.JtaTransactionManager})
+ * is necessary for accessing multiple transactional resources within the same
+ * transaction. The DataSource that Hibernate uses needs to be JTA-enabled in
+ * such a scenario (see container setup).
+ *
+ * <p>This transaction manager supports nested transactions via JDBC Savepoints.
+ * The {@link #setNestedTransactionAllowed "nestedTransactionAllowed"} flag defaults
+ * to "false", though, as nested transactions will just apply to the JDBC Connection,
+ * not to the Hibernate Session and its cached entity objects and related context.
+ * You can manually set the flag to "true" if you want to use nested transactions
+ * for JDBC access code which participates in Hibernate transactions (provided that
+ * your JDBC driver supports savepoints). <i>Note that Hibernate itself does not
+ * support nested transactions! Hence, do not expect Hibernate access code to
+ * semantically participate in a nested transaction.</i>

+/**
+ * {@link FactoryBean} that creates a Hibernate {@link SessionFactory}. This is the usual
+ * way to set up a shared Hibernate SessionFactory in a Spring application context; the
+ * SessionFactory can then be passed to data access objects via dependency injection.
+ *
+ * <p>Compatible with Hibernate ORM 5.5/5.6, as of Spring Framework 6.0.
+ * This Hibernate-specific {@code LocalSessionFactoryBean} can be an immediate alternative
+ * to {@link org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean} for
+ * common JPA purposes: The Hibernate {@code SessionFactory} will natively expose the JPA
+ * {@code EntityManagerFactory} interface as well, and Hibernate {@code BeanContainer}
+ * integration will be registered out of the box. In combination with
+ * {@link HibernateTransactionManager}, this naturally allows for mixing JPA access code
+ * with native Hibernate access code within the same transaction.

+/**
+ * A Spring-provided extension of the standard Hibernate {@link Configuration} class,
+ * adding {@link SpringSessionContext} as a default and providing convenient ways
+ * to specify a JDBC {@link DataSource} and an application class loader.
+ *
+ * <p>This is designed for programmatic use, for example, in {@code @Bean} factory methods;
+ * consider using {@link LocalSessionFactoryBean} for XML bean definition files.
+ * Typically combined with {@link HibernateTransactionManager} for declarative
+ * transactions against the {@code SessionFactory} and its JDBC {@code DataSource}.
+ *
+ * <p>Compatible with Hibernate ORM 5.5/5.6, as of Spring Framework 6.0.
+ * This Hibernate-specific factory builder can also be a convenient way to set up
+ * a JPA {@code EntityManagerFactory} since the Hibernate {@code SessionFactory}
+ * natively exposes the JPA {@code EntityManagerFactory} interface as well now.
+ *
+ * <p>This builder supports Hibernate {@code BeanContainer} integration,
+ * {@link MetadataSources} from custom {@link BootstrapServiceRegistryBuilder}
+ * setup, as well as other advanced Hibernate configuration options beyond the
+ * standard JPA bootstrap contract.

+ * as well as for non-transactional execution (if configured appropriately).
+ *
+ * <p>In contrast to {@link OpenSessionInViewFilter}, this interceptor is configured
+ * in a Spring application context and can thus take advantage of bean wiring.
+ *
+ * <p><b>WARNING:</b> Applying this interceptor to existing logic can cause issues
+ * that have not appeared before, through the use of a single Hibernate
+ * {@code Session} for the processing of an entire request. In particular, the
+ * reassociation of persistent objects with a Hibernate {@code Session} has to
+ * occur at the very beginning of request processing, to avoid clashes with already
+ * loaded instances of the same objects.

 The `grails-micronaut-bom` layers Micronaut-specific dependency overrides on top of `grails-bom` and pins the `io.micronaut.platform:micronaut-platform` version it was built against. Applying it as `enforcedPlatform` makes all of its constraints strictly versioned so that no transitive dependency (including Micronaut's own platform) can override them — there is no need to set a `micronautPlatformVersion` Gradle property. See link:{versionsRef}Grails%20BOM%20Micronaut.html[Grails Micronaut BOM Dependencies] for the full list of managed versions.

 When the `grails-micronaut` plugin is present, the Grails Gradle plugin will automatically apply the required annotation processors to your project and validate that `grails-micronaut-bom` is applied as `enforcedPlatform`. The validation fails the build at configuration time with an actionable error if the BOM is missing or applied as plain `platform(...)`.

+===== 7.4 Hibernate-Specific Micronaut BOMs
+
+Grails 8 introduces two new BOMs for projects that combine Micronaut integration with a specific Hibernate version:
+
+* `org.apache.grails:grails-hibernate5-micronaut-bom` -- For Micronaut projects using Hibernate 5. This is the default Micronaut BOM for Hibernate 5 users (analogous to how `grails-micronaut-bom` is the default). Use this when your Micronaut-enabled Grails application targets Hibernate 5.
+
+* `org.apache.grails:grails-hibernate7-micronaut-bom` -- For Micronaut projects using Hibernate 7. Use this when your Micronaut-enabled Grails application targets Hibernate 7.
+
+Both BOMs extend `grails-base-bom` and the Micronaut platform directly, and include the appropriate Hibernate dependency versions alongside the Micronaut-specific overrides (Groovy 5, Spock 2.4, etc.). This ensures no version conflicts when consumed via `enforcedPlatform`.
+

 == Dependency Versions for grails-bom
 
-Grails applications rely on a set of dependencies managed through a Bill of Materials (BOM). The application bom is `grails-bom`. This BOM serves as a centralized location to declare and manage versions of dependencies used within a Grails applications. Understanding these dependencies and their versions is crucial for effective project management and dependency resolution.
+Grails applications rely on a set of dependencies managed through a Bill of Materials (BOM). The application BOM is `org.apache.grails:grails-bom`. This BOM serves as a centralized location to declare and manage versions of dependencies used within Grails applications. Understanding these dependencies and their versions is crucial for effective project management and dependency resolution.
+
+=== BOM Variants
+
+The Grails BOM is published in three variants to support different Hibernate versions:
+
+[cols="1,2,2", options="header"]
+|===
+| Variant | Coordinates | Description
+| **Default** | `org.apache.grails:grails-bom` | The default BOM, uses Hibernate 5 compatible dependency versions (link:{versionsRef}Grails%20BOM.html[view dependencies])
+| **Hibernate 5** | `org.apache.grails:grails-hibernate5-bom` | Explicit Hibernate 5 BOM with Hibernate 5 compatible Liquibase versions (link:{versionsRef}Grails%20BOM%20Hibernate5.html[view dependencies])
+| **Hibernate 7** | `org.apache.grails:grails-hibernate7-bom` | Hibernate 7 BOM with Hibernate 7 compatible Liquibase versions (link:{versionsRef}Grails%20BOM%20Hibernate7.html[view dependencies])
+|===
+
+The primary difference between the variants is the Liquibase dependency versions and the Liquibase Hibernate extension used (`liquibase-hibernate5` vs `liquibase-hibernate7`).

+# Implementation Plan: Aggregate Style Violations
+
+This plan outlines the steps to aggregate CodeNarc, PMD, SpotBugs, and Checkstyle violations from all submodules into a single, categorized Markdown report in the root directory.
+
+## Objective
+Enable XML reporting for all static analysis tools, redirect their output to a consolidated directory, and provide a root-level task to parse these reports and generate a unified `STYLE_VIOLATIONS.md` summary.

+## Key Files
+- `build-logic/plugins/src/main/groovy/org/apache/grails/buildsrc/GrailsCodeStylePlugin.groovy`: Main plugin logic to update tool configurations and add the aggregator task.
+
+## Implementation Steps
+
+### 1. Update Submodule Tool Configurations
+Modify `GrailsCodeStylePlugin.groovy` to ensure all tools produce XML reports in a shared location:
+
+- **Checkstyle**: Update output location to include the task name: `reports/codestyle/checkstyle/${project.name}-${it.name}.xml`.
+- **CodeNarc**: Update output location to include the task name: `reports/codestyle/codenarc/${project.name}-${it.name}.xml`.
+- **PMD**: 
+    - Enable XML reporting: `it.reports.xml.required.set(true)`.
+    - Set output location: `reports/codestyle/pmd/${project.name}-${it.name}.xml`.
+- **SpotBugs**:
+    - Enable XML reporting: `it.reports.create('xml') { it.required = true }`.
+    - Set output location: `reports/codestyle/spotbugs/${project.name}-${it.name}.xml`.
+
+### 2. Implement the Aggregator Task
+Add a new method `configureAggregation(Project project)` in `GrailsCodeStylePlugin` that is called only when applying to the root project.
+
+- **Task Name**: `aggregateStyleViolations`
+- **Group**: `verification`
+- **Logic**:
+    - Depend on all static analysis tasks in subprojects.
+    - Crawl the `build/reports/codestyle/` directory for XML files.
+    - Parse XML using `XmlSlurper`.
+    - Map each violation to a common model: `Module`, `Class`, `Tool`, `Type`, `Line`, `Message`.
+    - Generate `STYLE_VIOLATIONS.md` in the root directory.
+
+#### Parsing Logic Specifics:
+- **CodeNarc**: Combine `Package/@name` and `File/@name`.
+- **PMD**: Use `violation/@class` and `violation/@package`.
+- **SpotBugs**: Use `BugInstance/Class/@classname`.
+- **Checkstyle**: Extract class name from `file/@name` (requires mapping absolute path back to package structure).
+
+### 3. Maintain Local HTML Reports
+Ensure that HTML reports remain enabled and default to their local module directories so developers can still use them for local development.
+
+## Verification & Testing
+1. Run checks on a representative module: `./gradlew :grails-core:codeStyle`.
+2. Run the aggregator: `./gradlew aggregateStyleViolations`.
+3. Verify `STYLE_VIOLATIONS.md` exists and contains correctly categorized violations.
+4. Verify local HTML reports still exist in `grails-core/build/reports/`.
