Fields in my database are updated by an external application. However, these changes are not being reflected in my  interface. I believe the data is being pulled from the Hibernate Session Cache.

I've tried disabling Hibernate's Cache by adding the following properties to my persistence.xml:

<property name="hibernate.cache.use_second_level_cache" value="false" />

<property name="hibernate.cache.provider_class" value="org.hibernate.cache.NoCacheProvider" />

but neither have an effect.

I can hack around this by doing entityManager.clear() in my data models and entityManager.refresh() in my EntityHome subclasses, but this is not ideal. How can I configure Hibernate to always query the database?

Thanks,
Dan
