SpringTransaction fails with HibernateJpaDialect and FlushMode.MANUAL ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-1745 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1745 Project: JBoss Seam Issue Type: Bug Components: Spring Reporter: Darryl Smith When using flushMode = MANUAL with org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.HibernateJpaDialect, the flushMode is changed to AUTO when beginning transaction SessionImpl.setFlushMode(FlushMode) line: 1286 HibernateSessionProxy.setFlushMode(FlushMode) line: 381 SeamHibernateJpaDialect(HibernateJpaDialect).beginTransaction(EntityManager, TransactionDefinition) line: 60 JpaTransactionManager.doBegin(Object, TransactionDefinition) line: 326 JpaTransactionManager(AbstractPlatformTransactionManager).getTransaction(TransactionDefinition) line: 350 SpringTransaction.begin() line: 74 Unless the transaction definition is set to readOnly spring will change the flushMode to manual HibernateJpaDialect:45 -------------------------------- public Object beginTransaction(EntityManager entityManager, TransactionDefinition definition) throws PersistenceException, SQLException, TransactionException { super.beginTransaction(entityManager, definition); Session session = getSession(entityManager); FlushMode flushMode = session.getFlushMode(); FlushMode previousFlushMode = null; if (definition.isReadOnly()) { // We should suppress flushing for a read-only transaction. session.setFlushMode(FlushMode.MANUAL); previousFlushMode = flushMode; } else { // We need AUTO or COMMIT for a non-read-only transaction. if (flushMode.lessThan(FlushMode.COMMIT)) { session.setFlushMode(FlushMode.AUTO); previousFlushMode = flushMode; } } return new SessionTransactionData(session, previousFlushMode); } Perhaps SpringTransaction should set should pass readOnly transaction def to Spring when the flushMode is manual.
