Answer 1

See Using stored procedures for querying in the reference documentation.

Mapped queries are called like this.

List employment = sess.getNamedQuery("BigSP")
    .list();

A mapped query can return entities.

<sql-query name="BigSP" callable="true">
    <return alias="emp" class="Employment">
        <return-property name="employee" column="EMPLOYEE"/>
        <return-property name="employer" column="EMPLOYER"/>
        <return-property name="startDate" column="STARTDATE"/>
        <return-property name="endDate" column="ENDDATE"/>
        <return-property name="regionCode" column="REGIONCODE"/>
        <return-property name="id" column="EID"/>
        <return-property name="salary">
            <return-column name="VALUE"/>
            <return-column name="CURRENCY"/>
        </return-property>
    </return>
    { call BigSP }
</sql-query>
