How to configure EntityInterceptor for Hibernate 4?

Hi,

I just migrated from Hibernate 3 => Hibernate 4.

So I have to replace the org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.* classes in my Spring XML Config with the hibernate4 ones.
But neither

Code:

---

org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.HibernateTransactionManager

---

nor

Code:

---

org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.LocalSessionFactoryBean

---

contain the entityInterceptor Property.

What to do?

Regards,
Markus

P.S. I use the latest Spring 3.1.0.RELEASE and Hibernate 4.0.1

And why should it? It is about Hibernate NOT JPA... So not sure what you want with the entityManager....

Ah, sorry, I mean EntityInterceptor, not EntityManager, I just corrected the post

In the hibernate3 package both classes had the entityInterceptor Property and I need to migrate to hibernate4.

I copied the code of LocalSessionFactoryBean, added an entityIntercepter Setter and set the interceptor in the afterPropertiesSet() method. Why not re-add the entityIntercepter Property in the original Spring Implementation?

Regards,
Markus

Code:

public class LocalSessionFactoryBean implements FactoryBean<SessionFactory>, ResourceLoaderAware,
                InitializingBean, DisposableBean
{
        ...

        private SessionFactory                        sessionFactory;

        private Interceptor entityInterceptor;

        public void setEntityInterceptor(Interceptor entityInterceptor)
        {
                this.entityInterceptor = entityInterceptor;
        }


        ....

        @Override
        public void afterPropertiesSet() throws IOException
        {
                LocalSessionFactoryBuilder sfb = new LocalSessionFactoryBuilder(this.dataSource, this.resourcePatternResolver);

                if (this.configLocations != null) {
                        for (Resource resource : this.configLocations) {
                                // Load Hibernate configuration from given location.
                                sfb.configure(resource.getURL());
                        }
                }

                if (this.mappingResources != null) {
                        // Register given Hibernate mapping definitions, contained in resource files.
                        for (String mapping : this.mappingResources) {
                                Resource mr = new ClassPathResource(mapping.trim(), this.resourcePatternResolver.getClassLoader());
                                sfb.addInputStream(mr.getInputStream());
                        }
                }

                if (this.mappingLocations != null) {
                        // Register given Hibernate mapping definitions, contained in resource files.
                        for (Resource resource : this.mappingLocations) {
                                sfb.addInputStream(resource.getInputStream());
                        }
                }

                if (this.cacheableMappingLocations != null) {
                        // Register given cacheable Hibernate mapping definitions, read from the file system.
                        for (Resource resource : this.cacheableMappingLocations) {
                                sfb.addCacheableFile(resource.getFile());
                        }
                }

                if (this.mappingJarLocations != null) {
                        // Register given Hibernate mapping definitions, contained in jar files.
                        for (Resource resource : this.mappingJarLocations) {
                                sfb.addJar(resource.getFile());
                        }
                }

                if (this.mappingDirectoryLocations != null) {
                        // Register all Hibernate mapping definitions in the given directories.
                        for (Resource resource : this.mappingDirectoryLocations) {
                                File file = resource.getFile();
                                if (!file.isDirectory()) {
                                        throw new IllegalArgumentException(
                                                        "Mapping directory location [" + resource + "] does not denote a directory");
                                }
                                sfb.addDirectory(file);
                        }
                }

                if (this.namingStrategy != null) {
                        sfb.setNamingStrategy(this.namingStrategy);
                }

                if (this.hibernateProperties != null) {
                        sfb.addProperties(this.hibernateProperties);
                }

                if (this.annotatedClasses != null) {
                        sfb.addAnnotatedClasses(this.annotatedClasses);
                }

                if (this.annotatedPackages != null) {
                        sfb.addPackages(this.annotatedPackages);
                }

                if (this.packagesToScan != null) {
                        sfb.scanPackages(this.packagesToScan);
                }

                if (this.entityInterceptor != null) {
                        sfb.setInterceptor(this.entityInterceptor);
                }

                this.sessionFactory = sfb.buildSessionFactory();
        }

        .....

}

I am facing the same problem. It is proving difficult to find documentation on how to solve this other than creating my own LocalSessionFactoryBean as Markus has done.

I've added a ticket for this: https://jira.springsource.org/browse/SPR-9987

As for pappnas's code - it appears to be adding the interceptor to the sessionFactory, not to the session.
