SessionFactory objects created by
SessionFactoryBuilderSupport#buildSessionFactory are now DisposableBean
proxies that call SessionFactory#close and release any threadlocal
DataSource object.
This is the same behavior that has always occurred during LSFBean and
ASFBean destruction lifecycles (and still does). This destruction logic
has now been factored out into
SessionFactoryBuilderSupport#closeHibernateSessionFactory such that all
SFB types can reuse it easily.
Note that LSFBean and ASFBean are subclasses, respectively, of SFBuilder
and ASFBuilder and they each must disable the DisposableBean proxying in
order to avoid duplicate attempts at closing the SessionFactory. See
the implementations of wrapSessionFactoryIfNeccesary() for details.
Issue: SPR-8114
Large refactoring of existing *SessionFactoryBean hierarchy designed to
support configuration of Hibernate SessionFactory objects within
@Configuration class @Bean methods without forcing use of a
FactoryBean type, which is generally discouraged due to awkwardness
of programming model and lifecycle issues. Refactored and new types
include:
* Removal of AbstractSessionFactoryBean, replacing it with
SessionFactoryBeanSupport abstract base class
* Introduction of SessionFactoryBuilder and
AnnotationSessionFactoryBuilder types, both direct subclasses of
SessionFactoryBuilderSupport. These types are intended for direct
use within @Bean methods. They expose method-chainable set*
methods allowing for concise and convenient use. See JavaDoc
on both types for usage examples.
* LocalSessionFactoryBean and AnnotationSessionFactoryBean types are
now subclasses, respectively, of the *Builder types above.
LSFB and ASFB backward-compatibility has been maintained almost
entirely. The one exception is that there is no longer a protected
convertHibernateAccessException() method available in the hierarchy.
This method was not likely often used anyway and has been replaced
by the new (and public) setPersistenceExceptionTranslator() which
accepts instances of type HibernateExceptionTranslator as introduced in
SPR-8076.
LSFB and ASFB setter method signatures have changed. They no longer
return void in standard JavaBeans style but rather, and due to extending
the *Builder types above, return the 'this' reference. This posed a
problem because the Spring container has to date been unable to detect
and provide dependency injection against non-void returning setter
methods. This limitation was due to the way that the default JavaBeans
Introspector class and its getBeanInfo() method works, and prompted the
introduction and intergration of ExtendedBeanInfo, already completed in
SPR-8079. So have no concern if you notice this signature change - it
all works.
Certain deprecations have been made:
* All LSFB/ASFB methods related to Hibernate's CacheProvider SPI,
reflecting its deprecation in Hibernate 3.3 in favor of the new
RegionFactory SPI. Note these methods have been preserved only
on the FactoryBean types. The new *SessionFactoryBuilder
supertypes do not expose CacheProvider services at all.
* All protected LSFB/ASFB methods that accept a Hibernate
Configuration parameter, such as newSessionFactory(Configuration),
postProcessMappings(Configuration) and
postProcessConfiguration(Configuation), in favor of no-arg methods
with the same names. Due to the nature of the hierarchy
refactoring mentioned above, the Configuration instance is always
available when these methods are called, thus no need to pass it
in as a parameter.
In the process, our approach to automatic detection of Hibernate dialect
has been improved (it was in fact broken before). Thanks to James
Roper for his suggestion in SPR-7936 as to how to fix this.
See HibernateSessionFactoryConfigurationTests as a starting point for
understanding the new builder-style approach to SessionFactory creation.
Note especially use of the SessionFactoryBuilder#doWithConfiguration
method which allows for direct programmatic configuration of the Native
Hibernate (Annotation)Configuration API.
As a final note, AnnotationConfiguration has been deprecated in
Hibernate 3.6, and great pains have been taken to ensure that users
of any supported Hibernate version (3.2 -> 3.6) will never need to
(a) cast from Configuration to AnnotationConfiguration or (b)
experience deprecation warnings due to being forced to use the
AnnotationConfiguration API. Explore the JavaDoc around the
doWithConfiguration() method and HibernateConfigurationCallback type
for complete details.
Issue: SPR-8066, SPR-7936, SPR-8076, SPR-8098
Designed to allow persistence exception translation of
HibernateException types without being forced to use
LocalSessionFactoryBean types.
Committed now in support of the forthcoming introduction of
*SessionFactoryBuilder types.
Issue: SPR-8076
Branch in question is 'env' branch from git://git.springsource.org/sandbox/cbeams.git; merged into
git-svn repository with:
git merge -s recursive -Xtheirs --no-commit env
No merge conflicts, but did need to
git rm spring-build
prior to committing.
With this change, Spring 3.1.0 development is now happening on SVN
trunk. Further commits to the 3.0.x line will happen in an as-yet
uncreated SVN branch. 3.1.0 snapshots will be available
per the usual nightly CI build from trunk.
