-------------------------------------
Not really following the purpose of this ticket. Is there some coding actually to be
done?
If you are just looking for an explanation, see below. However, JIRA is not the place to
ask user questions. Do that on the forums or on irc. I answered this time because it is
your first offense :)
The reason we say read-only is a matter of timing. Once the underlying {{SessionFactory}}
is built, changes made to that {{Configuration}} have no effect. Also, in general we do
not suggest applications using this {{org.hibernate.ejb.Ejb3Configuration}} class at all.
JPA defines a bootstrapping mechanism for both JSE and JEE uses. We are planning a better
approach to allow configuration stuff like you mentioned to happen in conjunction with
those standard bootstrapping methods. But thats still being planned. A likely approach
is through {{org.hibernate.integrator.spi.Integrator}}. Again, you have a vested interest
here, so maybe join the planning discussions for that.
Clarify the use of getHibernateConfiguration and Configuration

Key: HHH-6938
URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-6938
Project: Hibernate Core
Issue Type: Task
Affects Versions: 3.6.5
Reporter: Stephane Nicoll
Hi,
I am willing to register custom types automatically when our application starts. We are
using JPA2 and the EntityManager.
To do so I can use a method on the Configuration object (registerTypeOverride). When
configuring the JPA container, the PersistenceProvider can be extended. That's what I
am doing but I came to this code (Ejb3Configuration on 3.6.5)
{code:java}
/**
* This API is intended to give a read-only configuration.
* It is sueful when working with SchemaExport or any Configuration based
* tool.
* DO NOT update configuration through it.
*/
public AnnotationConfiguration getHibernateConfiguration() {
//TODO make it really read only (maybe through proxying)
return cfg;
}
{code}
I believe there is a TODO here that may lead to a change that would disallow me to use
the configuration object to register new types on startup. If this TODO gets ever resolved
(why?), what could I do to register new types?
Thanks
