Using @In to get the Hibernate session

[ericjava]

I'm using SMPC, and Hibernate is the underlying provider. I can't live without Criteria queries. Is it reasonable to do this:

@In("#{entityManager.delegate}")
 private Session session;

?

My entire app won't work without using Hibernate as the provider, and I need to use getDelegate() anyway, so any reason not to do it that way? Does the SMPC figure everything out when I use EL to do getDelegate() like that?

Thanks

Well, something like that is suggested in section 8.4 of the manual.
