Hi there,

As a newbie to Hibernate and Envers I kind of slided into a project using Seam and Hibernate.

Now, my problem is that I am calling the persist method on the EntityManager to save some entities to the database.
The method returns quickly, but after that I get a lot of Hibernate log output to the console about updating the _AUD tables.
This goes on for about 5 minutes before it is done.

The problem is: Until it is done hibernate cannot find the entities in the database. So either the entities are added to the database after the auditing, or hibernate refuses to see them until creating the auditing entries is completed.
That would be fine, unless I have no clue when auditing is done, and therefore no way to tell the user when his data has actually been saved, and is available to use.

Is there a way to insert a Listener, or block the EntityManager.persist method until auditing is done?

Thanks a lot in advance.

I hope my problem description is not too vague, since I'm really new to this.

Ok, I just found out by myself.

This thread helped a lot:

I can schedule an event with Events.instance().raiseTransactionSuccessEvent(..) and Annotate a method as @Observer to be fired when the transaction is done.

But that's probably a Seam issue, and not purely hibernate..
