How to set SessionFactoryInterceptor with EJB3/JBoss?

Hi,

what would be the best way to set a hibernate SessionFactoryInterceptor when using ejb3 entity beans rather than native hibernate services?

I'm using JBoss AS 4.0.4 GA Patch1 with hibernate3 and ejb3 persistence. For native hibernate services, JBoss reads the interceptor from hibernate-service.xml:

Code:

<mbean code="org.jboss.hibernate.jmx.Hibernate" 
       name="jboss.har:service=Hibernate">
    <attribute name="DatasourceName">java:/DefaultDS</attribute>
    <attribute name="Dialect">net.sf.hibernate.dialect.HSQLDialect</attribute>
    <attribute name="SessionFactoryName">java:/hibernate/SessionFactory</attribute>
    <attribute name="SessionFactoryInterceptor">my.InterceptorImpl</attribute>

    <attribute name="CacheProviderClass">
        net.sf.hibernate.cache.HashtableCacheProvider
    </attribute>
</mbean>

For ejb3 persistence, the persistence.xml file looks pretty similar, except there is no property for the SessionFactoryInterceptor that I would know of.

Code:

<persistence>
   <persistence-unit name="manager1">
       <jta-data-source>java:/DefaultDS</jta-data-source>
       <properties>
            <property name="hibernate.dialect" value="org.hibernate.dialect.HSQLDialect"/>
            <property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" value="create-drop"/>
       </properties>
   </persistence-unit>
</persistence>

Look at the HEM docs.
They cover Hibernate interceptors at ejb3 level - set as property.

Hey, thank you. Wonder why I didn't see this earlier, The property is missing in the JBoss server and Hibernate MBean Doku.

Any way, this works:

Code:

<persistence>
   <persistence-unit name="usermodel">
       <jta-data-source>java:/xDS</jta-data-source>
       <properties>
              <property name="hibernate.ejb.interceptor"          value="my.SessionFactoryInterceptor" />
       </properties>
   </persistence-unit>
</persistence>
