Re: [hibernate-dev] Integrator and retrieving objects

Just to circle back to this (because my memory is so short).. What did we ever decide about this, especially in regards to the *how*? As and example, lets look at Search.  Search wraps Session in a FullTextSession.  Search would register some handler with the SessionFactory that says it knows how to handle Session.as( FullTextSession.class ) calls.  But what exactly is this handler going to do?  Unless Search maintains some global Session instance -> FullTextSession instance...  Or are you thinking the registration happens per-Session?
