Please report in JIRA with reproduction steps :-)

One thing led to another last week and I never got to reporting this issue. I finally got around to it: http://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-2888 On Thu, Apr 10, 2008 at 1:30 PM, Pete Muir <pmuir(a)bleepbleep.org.uk&gt; wrote: > Please report in JIRA with reproduction steps :-) > > > > On 10 Apr 2008, at 18:13, Dan Allen wrote: > > > > > > > > > I was doing some session size research today in my application and I > > uncovered what appears to be a pretty nasty bug in Seam during the > > post-session invalidation routine.

As a follow on to the conflict between the name of the Seam Session component and the implicit session variable in the web context, I have discovered another conflict. The default (assumed) name of the Hibernate persistence context component is also "session". It just so happens that a request for the session component name returns the Hibernate persistence context because of precedence rules (root context variable names take precedence over imported context variable names). In all of this long windedness, my proposal for Seam 2.1 is to make the assumed name of the Hibernate persistence context hibernateSession rather than session. This would affect the Hibernate class in the Seam Application Framework and the HibernateTransaction component. I feel quite strongly that this is a wise move. -Dan public class HibernateEntityController extends PersistenceController<Session> { ... @Override protected String getPersistenceContextName() { return "session"; } ... } -- Dan Allen Software consultant | Author of Seam in Action http://www.mojavelinux.com http://manning.com/dallen NOTE: While I make a strong effort to keep up with my email on a daily basis, life and work come first and, at times, keep me away from my mail for a while. If you contact me, then don't hear back for more than a week, it is very likely that I am excessively backlogged or the message was caught in the spam filters.
