Hi,

I am trying to use the mass indexer as outlined here:

http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/search/ ... ml_single/ :

Example 1.6. Using Hibernate Session to index data

FullTextSession fullTextSession = Search.getFullTextSession(session);

fullTextSession.createIndexer().startAndWait();


My question is how, using Spring 2.5, do I inject the session factory into the spring-managed class that contains this code?

This is my class:

@Transactional
public class ManualIndexer {
private static final Logger LOGGER = Logger.getLogger(ManualIndexer.class.getName());
private SessionFactory sessionFactory;

public void setSessionFactory(SessionFactory sessionFactory) {
this.sessionFactory = sessionFactory;
}

public void index() {

LOGGER.info("Indexing everything in the DB...");

StopWatch timer = new StopWatch();
Session session = SessionFactoryUtils.getSession(sessionFactory, false);

FullTextSession fullTextSession = Search.getFullTextSession(session);
try {
timer.start();
fullTextSession.createIndexer().startAndWait();
timer.stop();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
fullTextSession.close();
}
LOGGER.info("Finished indexing after: " + timer.getLastTaskTimeMillis() + "ms");
}
}

Many thanks
Jay

Hi,
I'm no Spring expert, but something like that should work. You don't need the SessionFactory, any Session will do.
Are you having any errors?

Hi,

Thanks for the quick reply.

I use the SessionFactory and get the session from it as in the code. I define the factory in my bean definition as follows:

<bean id="manualIndexer" class="com.ruggeddesign.infra.search.ManualIndexer">
<property name="sessionFactory">
<ref bean="sessionFactory" />
</property>
</bean>

I was getting CGILib errors so I added a cgilib-nodep-2.1.3.jar to clear this up. Then my errors went away. As long as this is ok, I am happy??

Cheers
J

yes that should be fine, Search doesn't need CGLIB but Spring might need it.
(In other words: that doesn't affect Hibernate Search's functionality, it might affect Spring but I don't know that)

Thanks for your help and fast reply

Jay
