I have a user dao @Entity @Table(name="EBIGUSERTIM") public class EbigUser {

private String fullName;
private String email;
private Long flags;

private Date modifiedStamp;

@Id
@Column(name="ID")
public String getId() {
    return id;
}
public void setId(String id) {
    this.id = id;
}
@Id
@Column(name="SOURCE")
public Integer getSource() {
    return source;
}
public void setSource(Integer source) {
    this.source = source;
}
@Column(name="ENTRYSCHEME")
public String getEntryscheme() {
    return entryscheme;
}
public void setEntryscheme(String entryscheme) {
    this.entryscheme = entryscheme;
}
@Column(name="FULLNAME")
public String getFullName() {
    return fullName;
}
public void setFullName(String fullName) {
    this.fullName = fullName;
}
@Column(name="EMAIL")
public String getEmail() {
    return email;

    this.createdBy = createdBy;
}
@Column(name="CREATEDSTAMP")
public Date getCreatedStamp() {
    return createdStamp;

public void setCreatedStamp(Date createdStamp) {
    this.createdStamp = createdStamp;
}
@Column(name="MODIFIEDBY")
public String getModifiedBy() {
    return modifiedBy;

public void setModifiedBy(String modifiedBy) {
    this.modifiedBy = modifiedBy;

}

i am selecting 2 rows out of the db. The sql works select * from ebigusertim where id='blah'.

It returns 2 distinct rows. When i query the data using hibernate, it appears that the object memory is not being allocated for each entry in the list. Thus, i get 2 entries in the list with the same object.

        Criteria userCriteria = session.createCriteria(EbigUser.class);
        userCriteria.add(Restrictions.eq("id", id));
        userlist = userCriteria.list();
