I have a problem that's equal to the one presented here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1715 ... -hibernate

After searching for a while I can't find a decent solution for this. I can't have the parent entity have an @OneToMany to the child, because they are at different modules. I wanted to try the EntityListener that would delete the children before the parent is, but I can't because, again, they are at different modules.

Is there a clean solution to this? Can I define an EntityListener in the other module?

Well, after some thought I realized that I couldn't use EntityListener as it is stateless. Given that I would have to implement it anyway, I created a solution based on listeners. The solution is written as anwer to this question in stackoverflow:
