Hibernate Search does not integrate well with the Spring Framework - FullTextSessionImpl needs fixes ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HSEARCH-148 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HSEARCH-148 Project: Hibernate Search Issue Type: Bug Components: engine Affects Versions: 3.0.0.GA Reporter: Michael Lossos We are integrating Hibernate Search (3.0.0 GA) into an existing Hibernate / Spring Framework / Eclipse RCP configuration. Unfortunately, Hibernate Search's FullTextSessionImpl assumes that it will be passed an org.hibernate.classic.Session. When using Spring for Hibernate transaction management, Spring creates a defensive Proxy that disables the Session.close() method. This Proxy does not implement the EventSource nor classic.Session, while Hibernate Search assumes that it does and has a ClassCastException in the FullTextSessionImpl constructor. Hibernate Search's FullTextSessionImpl does this which is wrong for the Spring Hibernate Session Proxy: public FullTextSessionImpl(org.hibernate.Session session) { this.session = (Session) session; // classic.Session! this.eventSource = (EventSource) session; this.sessionImplementor = (SessionImplementor) session; } It should be possible to rewrite FullTextSession and FullTextSessionImpl so that they do not use the org.hibernate.classic.Session but instead use the standard Hibernate Session, and thus avoid the unsafe casting. The workaround for this is to use HibernateTemplate.setExposeNativeSession( true ) before executing the HibernateCallback (causing the SessionImpl to be passed directly, without a Proxy). This exposes the Session to potential close() and is *not* a good idea. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/secure/Administrators.... - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
