Hibernate version: 3.3

Name and version of the database you are using: SQL Server 2005

Hello,
I've been struggling with this forever and thought it was about time to just ask someone.
I want to trigger a JMS message when a property value on a persistent object is changed and committed to the database. I'd much rather do this in Hibernate than a database trigger.
Anyway, this seems like it would be fairly trivial, but I've looked at the various event/trigger systems available with Hibernate and some other approaches, but I'm just not seeing how to do it.
Ideally, along with the trigger notification of a property value being changed, I would also send the old value along with the new value... but I may be able to do without this.

Please, any suggestions? The ability to do this would help me tremendously.

Thanks!

Have you tried using an Interceptor? For documentation see http://www.hibernate.org/hib_docs/v3/ap ... eptor.html
and http://www.hibernate.org/hib_docs/v3/re ... vents.html

Implementing the Interceptor.onFlushDirty() method may help solving your problem.

Thanks a bunch. This looks like what I need.
