User development, A new message was posted in the thread "JBPM 4.3 and JPA/Hibernate integration question": http://community.jboss.org/message/522006#522006 Author : christian garderes Profile : http://community.jboss.org/people/chrigar Message: -------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for your response Santanu.   The problem is that, in JPA/Spring, we don't use a LocalSessionFactoryBean. Rather we rely on a LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean with no knowledge of hibernate session api.   The trick was to get a reference to the Underlying SessionFactory, something like:   SpringConfuguration.setHibernateSessionFactory(((Session) entityManager.getDelegate()).getSessionFactory());       For now, we still don't have any solution for JBPM 4.3 version   :-( -------------------------------------------------------------- To reply to this message visit the message page: http://community.jboss.org/message/522006#522006
