EntityManager in JpaDaoSupport

[jessieE]

hey guys.

Am using spring-framework-2.0-m2-with-dependencies-build.398-20060118.zip as a starting point for playing around with Hibernate EM and Spring support.

Question:
How do i get an EM from within a service bean extending JpaDaoSupport? I used the getEntityManager method of JpaDaoSupport and it returned null. I also tried getJpaTemplate().getEntityManager(). It also returned null.
thus this mean that i should just create an EM from the EM factory. But my guess is this wont participate in transactions that may be ongoing.

Have the same problem.
Should EntityManager be injected the way EntityManagerFactory is injected into all my DAOs?

Thanks,

use getJpaTemplate().execute and implement the jpacallback.
