Re: [hibernate-dev] Interceptors and dependency injection

https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-11259 lists some other possibilities for things we might consider for accessing through ManagedBeanRegistry. We discussed Interceptor in Paris - I can definitely see that with some caveats/restrictions. Add it to that list or create a new sub-task.

As for chaining Interceptors, I guess it depends how that is exposed. E.g. a comma-separated list in settings would inherently imply ordering. That works for SessionFactory-scoped Interceptors. I'm not sure we need a composite though wrapping the individual Interceptors, a List<Interceptor> would suffice and save some memory (granted a tiny amount). For Session-scoped Interceptors we would need to account for a few things, but its certainly possible. Supposing there are also SessionFactory-scoped Interceptors: How would a user indicate that the Session-scoped Interceptors should replace the SessionFactory-scoped ones versus adding to them. What's the ordering there - SessionFactory-scoped Interceptors first? Or SessionScoped ones> How would a user indicate that a Session should have no Interceptors? That is a common requirement. Probably some others I am not thinking of.
