Hi,

I need to find all the dirty objects present in a hibernate session. Is there any way to find the list of dirty objects?

TIA

Unfortunately there isn't a method like: session.getDirtyObjects(). It appears to me that Hibernate figures out which objects are dirty at the identitymap level during a flush. What I've done before is fixed up all the setters of my classes, for example:

private boolean changed = false;
private String firstName;

public void setFirstName(String firstName)
{
setChanged(this.firstName != firstName);
this.firstName = firstName;
}

protected void setChanged(boolean changed)
{
if (changed)
this.changed = changed;
}
