Seam Persistence Beta 1 has been released. To get started put the following in your pom.xml:

 

 

<dependency>
   <groupId>org.jboss.seam.persistence</groupId>
   <artifactId>seam-persistence-impl</artifactId>
   <version>3.0.0.Beta1</version>
</dependency>

<dependency>
   <groupId>org.jboss.weld</groupId>
   <artifactId>weld-extensions</artifactId>
   <version>1.0.0.Beta1</version>
</dependency>

 

The release adds support for Seam managed Hibernate sessions, and fixes a bug where the SMPC would not join a transaction correctly if used outside a transaction.

 

Seam managed hibernate sessions are configured via producer methods:

 

 

   @RequestScoped
   @Produces
   @SeamManaged
   public SessionFactory createSessionFactory()
   {
      Configuration config = new Configuration();
      config.configure();
      return config.buildSessionFactory();
   }

 

This declaration results in the creation of two beans, an application scoped SessionFactory and a @RequestScoped Session.

 

This Session can be injected as follows:

 

@Inject Session session;

 

This managed session will automatically join the active transaction, and allows the use of EL in queries:

 

 

Hotel hilton = (Hotel) session.createQuery("select h from Hotel h where h.name=#{hotelName}").uniqueResult();

 

This is the last release of Seam Persistence that will use Weld Extensions. Weld Extensions has been renamed to Seam Solder, and future release will require Solder instead.
