Hibernate version: 3.2

I posted this on the hibernate user forum, but it probably belongs here...

For using EntityListeners the code would look something like this...



My Question is how do I make it so that the MyListener.class is an interface, with the implementation class determined by Dependency Injection?

Basically, I want the EntityListener to be loaded via Spring,

Thanks

There isn't a simple solution to this, that I'm aware of.

The best thing I can think of is to create a spring managed bean that will perform the logic you want the entity listener to do. Then have your Entity Listener class get a reference to the ApplicationContext and get a spring-managed bean and invoke it.

Thanks - thats about the best I could do. Seeems there is no way to dependency manage what goes into your annotations - this is probably a good thing.
