[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of EJB 3.0] - Accessing org.hibernate.Session from EntityManager

[jaikiran]

For accessing org.hibernate.Session from a EntityManager, the JBossAS4.x docs for EJB3, recommend:

anonymous wrote : You can get access to the current underlying Hibernate Session by typecasting your reference to EntityManager.
  | 
  |        @PersistenceContext EntityManager entityManager;
  |   |        public void someMethod();
  |   |        {
  |   |          org.jboss.ejb3.entity.HibernateSession hs = (HibernateSession)entityManager;
  |   |          org.hibernate.Session session = hs.getHibernateSession();
  |   |        }
  |   |       

However, in AS5, the cast throws an CCE:

for this line:

org.jboss.ejb3.entity.HibernateSession hs = (HibernateSession)entityManager;

>From the javadocs of javax.persistence.EntityManager, i see that there is a getDelegate method available which can be used instead. So i have changed the reference doc and also added a new tutorial with this piece of code, which is working;

public Customer getCustomer(long id)
  |    {
  |       org.hibernate.Session session = (Session) em.getDelegate();
  |       return (Customer) session.get(Customer.class, id);
  |    }
