I'm working on a Spring / Hibernate application and because of the way the server side processes requests, I need to set the session's flush mode to COMMIT.

This works perfectly if I set the flush mode programatically (i.e. in Java at runtime).

I was looking for a way to set this property in the configuration, to keep these details out of the code. I don't see a way to do this.

Is this property only set-able at runtime on the Session?

Thanks.

Hello,
if I understand properly, you want to flush the session without making a call to session.flush() every time inside your java code.
I had the same problem, and I solved is using Spring and Aspect Oriented Programming. An aspect carrying the "session.flush" instruction was automatically called before processing each DAO call.
