AvailableHints
```
public interface HibernateHints
```
List of Hibernate-specific (extension) hints available to query, load, and lock scenarios.
Some hints are only effective in certain scenarios, which is noted on each constant's documentation.

API Note:

The stringly-typed hints defined here correspond to typesafe operations of Hibernate's native APIs, and should not be used unless portability between JPA implementations is of very great importance.

```
static final String HINT_FOLLOW_ON_LOCKING
```
    Hint to enable or disable the follow-on locking mechanism provided by Dialect.useFollowOnLocking(java.lang.String, org.hibernate.query.spi.QueryOptions).
    A value of true enables follow-on-locking, whereas a value of false disables it. If the value is null, the dialect itself will determine whether follow-on locking is used.

    Constant Field Values
    
    API Note:
    
    While Hibernate supports applying a lock mode to a native query, the JPA specification requires that Query.setLockMode(jakarta.persistence.LockModeType) throw an IllegalStateException in this scenario.
  - HINT_NATIVE_SPACES
```
static final String HINT_NATIVE_SPACES
```

    a List of the spaces,
    an array of the spaces, or
    a string with a whitespace-separated list of the spaces.
    
    Typically, these are the names of tables which are referenced by the query.

    See Also:
    
    FetchSettings.DEFAULT_BATCH_FETCH_SIZE, EntityManager.setProperty(String, Object), Constant Field Values
  - HINT_JDBC_BATCH_SIZE
```
static final String HINT_JDBC_BATCH_SIZE
```
    Hint to set the batch size for JDBC batching for a given EntityManager.
    
    See Also:
    
    BatchSettings.STATEMENT_BATCH_SIZE, EntityManager.setProperty(String, Object), Constant Field Values
  - HINT_QUERY_PLAN_CACHEABLE
```
static final String HINT_QUERY_PLAN_CACHEABLE
```
    Hint to enable or disable the query plan caching.
    By default, query plan caching is enabled for HQL queries and immutable criteria queries i.e. created with QuerySettings.CRITERIA_COPY_TREE. Query plan caching can be disabled for any query by setting this property to false. Query plan caching can be enabled for mutable criteria queries by setting this property to true.
    Setting this property to true for mutable criteria queries can lead to cache trashing, because the query plan is cached based on a copy of the criteria query. This is mostly useful when the same Query should be executed multiple times, but with different parameter values to avoid re-translation of the criteria query.
    Note that setting this property to true does not override the basic safety measures of Hibernate. Hibernate will never cache query plans that are not safe to cache, regardless of the value of this property.
