[hibernate-dev] Extended sessions and (lack of) recovery from Hibernate exceptions (ie: validation)

[Emmanuel Bernard]

Such validations are typically trigger before flush (ie before  
Hibernate) by either your application or your application framework.  
For example Seam triggers the validation in each marked "form".
The right place to ask such questions is forum.hibernate.org though.
