Hey,

I have a stateless as a facade and my DAO is a pojo class.

I create the entity manger from the factory that bind to the JNDI.

I have the following attributes in the persistence.xml:

Code:

<persistence> 
  <persistence-unit name="Demo"> 
    <jta-data-source>java:/DemoDS</jta-data-source> 
    <properties> 
      <property name="hibernate.ejb.naming_strategy" value="org.hibernate.cfg.DefaultComponentSafeNamingStrategy" /> 
      <property name="hibernate.transaction.factory_class" value="org.hibernate.ejb.transaction.JoinableCMTTransactionFactory"/> 
      <property name="hibernate.transaction.manager_lookup_class" value="org.hibernate.transaction.JBossTransactionManagerLookup"/> 
    </properties> 
  </persistence-unit> 
</persistence>

Do i need to explicity close the entity manager ?

Can i debug this in order to be sure that there are no open connection left open in my application?

Thank you[/code]

It's the good citizen approach, you open it, you close it.
