Because of the requirements, I need to filter some entities to not indexed with insert event. So I custom an eventListener to implement PostInsertEventListener, but the following exception occured:


But if I extends FullTextIndexEventListener, the exception disappeared.

How can I do this? Thanks in advance.

Hi,

given the way ContextHelper is implemented you will have to extend FullTextIndexEventListener. The helper class checks for a instance of FullTextIndexEventListener to get hold of the search factory. What's the problem with extending FullTextIndexEventListener? Or maybe you can describe your usecase a little more. There might be a better solution for your problem.

Thank you for instant reply.
Yes, I extend the FullTextIndexEventListener now, but I see the TODOs on that class which says this class will be make final in future. I'm afraid there will be any problem after next release.

yes there may be some problems in the future, but it's still not decided if it will be a final class. It makes other code simpler, but we should be able to manage conditions like this.

You need a new feature to define a boolean property which "excludes" an instance from index processing?

A need for the some kind of of "conditional indexing" is expressed in this thread also: [url]http://forum.hibernate.org/viewtopic.php?t=984023&highlight=conditional+indexing
