I have also worked on a jcr support for the spring framework. I think
that it's more a contribution to the spring project, but I'd like
feedback from the jackrabbit users first.
The spring support provides a jcr session factory bean, a jcr
transaction manager implementing the spring PlatformTransactionManager
and an exception translator that converts jcr exceptions to spring data
access exceptions.
It allows the use of spring declarative transactions for jcr operations.
nice! i've done something similar, but with slightly different features:
1) you can either use jcr's regular jaas authentication or a
pre-authenticated subject
2) the dao support class has only one callback method for both read-only
and read-write access, and it does not require you to manually convert
jcr exceptions.
3) transactions are not managed
you can see the source code at
<http://svn.osafoundation.org/server/commons/trunk/spring/>.
perhaps we can merge the good ideas from both implementations and offer
the final result as a contribution to spring? i'm not terribly
interested in maintaining this code ;)
ps: is there a non-annotations way to specify transactions and/or a
backport of annotations?
