Tried to pass Seam component's Session to non-Seam thread, got Exception: in thread "pool-4-thread-2" java.lang.IllegalStateException: No active application context at org.jboss.seam.security.EntityPermissionChecker....

Hi, guys. I just started to learn Seam/Hibernate, came from C++/SIP world so bear with me if the questions sound naive or wasn't described in perfect J2EE terms. I am working on a project I need use raiseAsynchronousEvent() to call a POJO function, from there I need call another manager who will initialize tasks be done in a multi-thread manner, which is also a POJO. but I need send a Session instance down there, so I passed Seam component's session to the observer and to the muliti-thread manager, which leads to this exception as soon as thread manger's setup() uses the Seam session the first time:

Exception in thread "pool-4-thread-2" java.lang.IllegalStateException: No active application context
        at org.jboss.seam.security.EntityPermissionChecker.instance(EntityPermis
sionChecker.java:55)
        at org.jboss.seam.security.HibernateSecurityInterceptor.onLoad(Hibernate
SecurityInterceptor.java:36)
        at org.hibernate.event.def.DefaultPreLoadEventListener.onPreLoad(Default
PreLoadEventListener.java:41)
        at org.hibernate.engine.TwoPhaseLoad.initializeEntity(TwoPhaseLoad.java:
148)

I tried using Lifecycle.beginCall()/endCall() didn't work. So my question is: is that possible that a non-Seam process uses a passed-in Seam session instance? how do I make this hibernateSecurityInterceptor happy?

any suggestions are very much appreciated.

No disrespect to the seam devs, but what happens when you swap out raiseAsynchronousEvent with raiseEvent?

There have been some problems in the past with raiseAsynchronousEvent.

It think the question i've asked here was going in the same direction:

Probably you can solve your issue with the help of it?
