Spring Data Auditing: cannot make AuditingEntityListener
I'm trying to configure the spring data jpa auditing functionality on my project (Hibernate 4.1.6, hibernate-jpa 2.0, spring-data-jpa 1.1.0, spring 3.1.2) but I'm not able to make it work.
I think the problem is that I'm not able to register the AuditingEntityListener but I'm not sure. I tried to set a breakpoint in all its methods but they never gets called including the afterPropertiesSet.
Since I don't have a persistence.xml file I tried to use the new mappingResources property of LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean (https://jira.springsource.org/browse/SPR-8440).
This is from my context.xml:
Code:
<jpa:repositories base-package="package.domain" />
<jpa:auditing auditor-aware-ref="auditorAware" />
<bean id="entityManagerFactory" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean">
<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
<property name="packagesToScan" value="package.domain.model" />
<property name="mappingResources">
<value>package/domain/domain-orm.xml"</value>
</property>
<property name="jpaVendorAdapter">
<bean class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.HibernateJpaVendorAdapter">
...
</bean>
</property>
<property name="jpaProperties">
...
</property>
</bean>
<context:annotation-config />
This is the contento of the "package/domain/domain-orm.xml" in my classpath:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<entity-mappings xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/orm" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/orm orm_2_0.xsd" version="2.0">
<persistence-unit-metadata>
<persistence-unit-defaults>
<entity-listeners>
<entity-listener class="org.springframework.data.jpa.domain.auditing.support.AuditingEntityListener" />
</entity-listeners>
</persistence-unit-defaults>
</persistence-unit-metadata>
</entity-mappings>
It seems to me that the domain-orm.xml file is completely ignored: i tried to put errors in this file (invalid xml, wrong class name) and nothing happens.
Any suggestion on what to check is welcome :)
