Class OpenSessionInViewInterceptor

java.lang.Object

org.springframework.orm.hibernate4.support.OpenSessionInViewInterceptor

All Implemented Interfaces:

AsyncWebRequestInterceptor, WebRequestInterceptor

public class OpenSessionInViewInterceptor
extends java.lang.Object
implements AsyncWebRequestInterceptor

Spring web request interceptor that binds a Hibernate Session to the thread for the entire processing of the request.

This class is a concrete expression of the "Open Session in View" pattern, which is a pattern that allows for the lazy loading of associations in web views despite the original transactions already being completed.

This interceptor makes Hibernate Sessions available via the current thread, which will be autodetected by transaction managers. It is suitable for service layer transactions via HibernateTransactionManager as well as for non-transactional execution (if configured appropriately).

In contrast to OpenSessionInViewFilter, this interceptor is configured in a Spring application context and can thus take advantage of bean wiring.

WARNING: Applying this interceptor to existing logic can cause issues that have not appeared before, through the use of a single Hibernate Session for the processing of an entire request. In particular, the reassociation of persistent objects with a Hibernate Session has to occur at the very beginning of request processing, to avoid clashes with already loaded instances of the same objects.

protected Session	openSession() Open a Session for the SessionFactory that this interceptor uses.
void	postHandle(WebRequest request, ModelMap model) Intercept the execution of a request handler after its successful invocation, right before view rendering (if any).

Field Detail

PARTICIPATE_SUFFIX

Constructor Detail

OpenSessionInViewInterceptor

public OpenSessionInViewInterceptor()

Method Detail

setSessionFactory

public void setSessionFactory(SessionFactory sessionFactory)

Set the Hibernate SessionFactory that should be used to create Hibernate Sessions.

getSessionFactory

public SessionFactory getSessionFactory()

Return the Hibernate SessionFactory that should be used to create Hibernate Sessions.

preHandle

public void preHandle(WebRequest request)
               throws DataAccessException

Open a new Hibernate Session according and bind it to the thread via the TransactionSynchronizationManager.

Specified by:

preHandle in interface WebRequestInterceptor

Parameters:

request - the current web request

Throws:

DataAccessException

postHandle

public void postHandle(WebRequest request,
                       ModelMap model)

Description copied from interface: WebRequestInterceptor

Intercept the execution of a request handler after its successful invocation, right before view rendering (if any).

Allows for modifying context resources after successful handler execution (for example, flushing a Hibernate Session).

Specified by:

postHandle in interface WebRequestInterceptor

Parameters:

request - the current web request

model - the map of model objects that will be exposed to the view (may be null). Can be used to analyze the exposed model and/or to add further model attributes, if desired.

afterCompletion

public void afterCompletion(WebRequest request,
                            java.lang.Exception ex)
                     throws DataAccessException

Unbind the Hibernate Session from the thread and close it).

Specified by:

afterCompletion in interface WebRequestInterceptor

Parameters:

request - the current web request

ex - exception thrown on handler execution, if any

Throws:

DataAccessException

See Also:

TransactionSynchronizationManager

decrementParticipateCount

private boolean decrementParticipateCount(WebRequest request)

afterConcurrentHandlingStarted

public void afterConcurrentHandlingStarted(WebRequest request)

Description copied from interface: AsyncWebRequestInterceptor

Called instead of postHandle and afterCompletion, when the the handler started handling the request concurrently.

Specified by:

afterConcurrentHandlingStarted in interface AsyncWebRequestInterceptor

Parameters:

request - the current request

openSession

protected Session openSession()
                       throws DataAccessResourceFailureException

Open a Session for the SessionFactory that this interceptor uses.

The default implementation delegates to the SessionFactory#openSession method and sets the Session's flush mode to "MANUAL".

Returns:

the Session to use

Throws:

DataAccessResourceFailureException - if the Session could not be created

See Also:

org.hibernate.FlushMode#MANUAL

getParticipateAttributeName

protected java.lang.String getParticipateAttributeName()

Return the name of the request attribute that identifies that a request is already intercepted.

The default implementation takes the toString() representation of the SessionFactory instance and appends PARTICIPATE_SUFFIX.

applySessionBindingInterceptor

private boolean applySessionBindingInterceptor(WebAsyncManager asyncManager,
                                               java.lang.String key)
