Pessimistic locking and JPA

Hi,

I need pessimistic locking in my application using EJB3 and JPA in JBoss. How can I use the Hibernate JPA implementation with pessimistic locking? Can I use native queries or are there better or simpler solutions like with Oracle's TopLink where you add a hint to your query?

Thanks in advance

there is a lock() API and a query.setLockMode() API.
I don't find the native API call too cumbersome, but if you disagree, open a JIRA issue and I will write a equivalent JPA "hint"
