[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Closed: (JBSEAM-1387) Support for overriding .cfg.xml properties in HibernateFactory (patch included)

Support for overriding .cfg.xml properties in HibernateFactory (patch included) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-1387 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1387 Project: Seam Issue Type: Feature Request Components: Core Environment: Microcontainer Reporter: Przemyslaw Jaskierski Priority: Minor Attachments: HibernateFactory-patch.diff.zip Currently HibernateFactory supports only one type of configuration at a time: .cfg.xml file or "programmatic" one passed by the cfgProperties property. It would be great to have the ability to override individual properties from the specified .cfg.xml file using cfgProperties property. For example, when you want to have special value for hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto in case of tests only, and normal one in case of production environment. Applying my patch makes the following thing possible (instead of maintaing two almost identicall hibernate.cfg.xml files): <bean name="pecpHibernateSessionFactoryFactory" class="pecp.core.seam.HibernateFactory"> <property name="cfgResourceName"> <inject bean="pecpHibernateConfigurationLocation"/> </property> <property name="namingStrategy"> <inject bean="underscoreAwareNamingStrategy"/> </property> <property name="cfgProperties"> <map class="java.util.Hashtable" keyClass="java.lang.String" valueClass="java.lang.String"> <entry> <key>hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto</key> <value>create-drop</value> </entry> </map> </property> </bean> I've kept original logical code flow intact, so when there is no cfgResourceName and no cfgProperties set, Seam (as in original case) tries to call configuration.configure() and try to configure from hibernate.cfg.xml file. To make override functionality work you need to specify cfgResourceName property.
