I am using the drools integration server (v5.4) (thus Spring v3) and trying to configure a session that persists to a (mysql) database and reloads on startup. It seems like JPAKnowledgeService should fit the bill, except I'm at a loss as to how/if it can be used in a Spring environment. http://docs.jboss.org/drools/release/5.4.0.Final/knowledge-api-javadoc/or... I also tried manually configuring persistence like: <drools:ksession id=".." type="stateful"..> <drools:configuration> <drools:jpa-persistence> <drools:transaction-manager ref="jpaTxManager"/> <drools:entity-manager-factory ref="jpaEntityManagerFactory"/> </drools:jpa-persistence> </drools:configuration> </drools:ksession> and this is working (at least, I see the SessionInfo table getting updated), but then how to reload this session startup (** via Spring)?
