Hi,

Is there a way to turn off all writes/updates to the second level cache for the duration of a session?

Thanks,

Daniel

Try this key/value pair in your configuration "hibernate.cache.provider_class" "org.hibernate.cache.NoCacheProvider"

... or at least find the 2.x equivalent of this.

How would I alter that value on a per-session basis? I can't find anything in the SessionFactory or Session interfaces that would allow you to alter the configuration locally. Basically I want one particular sessions to not have a cache, but all others to have one.

If you want to clear the session, call session.clear()

session.setCacheMode(CacheMode.IGNORE)

don't recall when it was added. probably in H3.x.
