> The purpose of the CurrentSessionContext was transparent client code for at least TLS and BMT scenario:
> getCurrentSession().beginTransaction();
> // do stuff
> getCurrentSession.getTransaction().commit();
> This is not possible with the current implementations. JTASessionContext only works in a CMT environment, or requires the user to begin and end a JTA transaction through the JTA API. The code above does not work for BMT.
> A custom BMTSessionContext can not take care of this issue, e.g. by starting a JTA transaction for the user when he first calls getCurrentSession(). The user is then not able to call getTransaction().commit(), but would also have to use the JTAPI to end the transaction (Hibernate Transaction API is no-op of someone else started the JTA tx). One way to hack this is a custom Transaction/TransactionFactory implementation that always commits a JTA transaction, no matter who started it.
> In other words, the new current session context feature is only useful because it incorporates the TLS stuff into Hibernate. It does however not provide any real portability. We need to clean up this mess before we finalize 3.1.
