Hi, I have question after reading AppFuse example - but I hope that the question is generic enough for posting in this forum. Sorry if it is not.
AppFuse has a StartupListener.java which initialize Hibernate using: Configuration().configure().buildSessionFactory(); So to support this, we need Hibernate.cfg.xml. Then AppFuse has a ServiceLocator.java, which manages sessions. When instantiating ServiceLocator, we have this: (SessionFactory) sf = InitialContext().lookup(Constants.SESSION_FACTORY); My understanding is that we need to now bind SessionFactory with JNDI to support the above call (in server.xml file). Here are my questions: 1) why do we initialze Hibernate in two places (ServiceLocator and StartupListener)? I thought we should only do this once. 2) Tomcat has problems supporting JNDI binding for Hibernate session factory. Will the above InitialContext() work ? 3) Since StartupListener has already initialized the Hibernate SessionFactory, should I put it in ServletContext so ServiceLocator can retrieve it later instead of using InitialContext ? thanks li xin __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
