Dependency Injection with Hibernate POJOs?

[cepage]

My Hibernate-persisted POJOs are, of course, usually instantiated by a call to session.load(... ) or session.find( ... ).

Is there any way to enable Spring Dependency Injection with these classes, or do they need to look up their dependencies explicitly through the ApplicationContext?

Thanks!

There is an interesting thread How Common to Spring Manage Beans Created By Hibernate? in the architecture forum that discuss this.

Also, take a look at org.springframework.orm.hibernate.support.Dependen cyInjectionInterceptorFactoryBean in the sandbox. It's slated for the 1.2 release.
