\n2. Entities<\/p>\n
Value Objects<\/em> are the objects which can not stand alone. Take Address, for example. If you say address, people will ask whose address is this. So it can not stand alone.

So Address is Value Object and is Embeddable. Whereas UserDetails(Entities) could stand on its own and it could have Embedded Objects<\/p>\n Address.java<\/strong><\/p>\n UserDetails.java<\/strong><\/p>\n The above code explains how the Embedded and Embeddable annotations can be used in the code.<\/p>\n CreateUser.java<\/strong><\/p>\n Attribute Override<\/strong><\/p>\n Multiple Attribute Overrides<\/strong><\/p>\n There are two types of objects in Hibernate 1.
