Steve Ebersole commented on HHH-2603:
-------------------------------------

Getting a connection directly from the ConnectionProvider is a different scenario, and is fine.  There you are getting a connection for your own use.  Even in the case of JTA, you may get the same logical connection as what is being used by a Session; however, you would get a different physical connection handle.

We are specifically talking about the scope/duration of connections in relation to a Session.

And you can get the ConnectionProvider from the SessionFactory as well.  You just need to cast it to org.hibernate.engine.SessionFactoryImplementor, and call org.hibernate.engine.SessionFactoryImplementor#getConnectionProvider.  org.hibernate.engine.SessionFactoryImplementor is not a public API; it is however an integration API and as such is pretty stable.
