preventing auto-flushing

[caron1]

I am trying to prevent flushing from occurring while navigating through a wizard-type scenario.
I have tried adding hints to my query:

@Entity
@Table (name="property")
@NamedQuery(name="property.findAll", query="select p from Property p",
 hints={@QueryHint(name="org.hibernate.flushMode", value="NEVER")})

Its still flushing. Has anyone else tried this or does anyoen have any suggestions?

You need to add TransactionAttribute(NOT_SUPPORTED) to the method that you don't want to flush, or you need to set the EM to FlushMode.NEVER.

Thanks for your quick response - it works when I add TransactionAttribute(NOT_SUPPORTED)

As a matter of interest do you know why the hints aren't working?
I am using JBoss4.0.4rc1.

Oh, I missed that ... no, no idea. Ask Emmanuel in the HEM forum.
