How to print a query string with parameter values when using Hibernate

Is it possible in Hibernate to print generated SQL queries with real values instead of question marks?

How would you suggest to print queries with real values if it is not possible with Hibernate API?

You need to enable logging for the the following categories:

• org.hibernate.SQL   - set to debug to log all SQL DML statements as they are executed

• org.hibernate.type - set to trace to log all JDBC parameters

So a log4j configuration could look like:

# logs the SQL statements
log4j.logger.org.hibernate.SQL=debug 

# Logs the JDBC parameters passed to a query
log4j.logger.org.hibernate.type=trace

The first is equivalent to hibernate.show_sql=true legacy property, the second prints the bound parameters among other things.

Another solution (non hibernate based) would be to use a JDBC proxy driver like P6Spy.
