Hi,

Apologies in advance what what may seem to be a silly question. I am working with Hibernate 3.0.5 and really appreciate the tool. However, I have been looking at the documentation regarding transactions. I want to call the method getCurrentTransaction on my SessionFactory. It does not seem to be there on the object code. Am I making a reallly obcious mistake.

thanks for any advice.

Ben

this is my import

import org.hibernate.SessionFactory;

yet I cannot getCurrent Session();

Ben,

There is no such method called getCurrentTransaction(),
Just for your information...

You use getCurrentSession only when you have intended
to use Container Managed Transaction. For CMT you are
not required to handle the transaction.

If you are not using CMT, then try getSession() method
and then from sesson you can make calls like beginTransaction()
and commit etc.....

Hope it helps.

Sorry thats a typo on my side.
I am trying to use getCurrentSession() but the APi I have downloaded does not have it??? I am working in a CMT environment and have found hibernate to be really useful. Maybe I am losing the plot ???

Ben

Could you make sure

1. that Hibernater.jar is in the class path
2. You have downloaded the correct version

I have implemented CMT in my proejct but i downloaded sometime last week.

Hi mahikty I double checked and found I had an old jar in my classpath
sorry for wasting your time. That will teach me for having a beer with my firday lunch :-) ...

Thanks for your help
