I'm not sure if you're using annotations or XML, but in case of annotations, this is done by placing your @FilterDefs into a package-info.java file (within your package) just before the "package com.foo.xyz" line.

I personally found this to be an ideal solution, but unfortunately can't make it work, and all my searches led to unanswered questions by developers having the same problem. I always get a HibernateException stating that there's "No such filter configured"...

When I place my @FilterDef annotations at class level, it all works, but you can't place multiple @FilterDefs to one class. Am I missing something with package-info.java? Was anyone able to make this work?

The syntax for the package-info stuff is way whacky and if I let Idea reformat the class it jumbles the order.

Here's ours:

Code:

@FilterDefs({
    @FilterDef(name = ContextSet.CONTEXT_FILTER, parameters = {@ParamDef(name = ContextSet.CONTEXT, type = "com.x.app.context.ContextSet")}),
    @FilterDef(name = EnableBusinessUnitContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.BUSINESS_UNIT_FILTER_NAME, parameters = {@ParamDef(name = EnableBusinessUnitContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.MEMBER_PARAMETER, type = "java.lang.Long"), @ParamDef(name = EnableBusinessUnitContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.EFFECTIVE_DATE_PARAMETER, type = "java.util.Date")}),
    @FilterDef(name = EnablePeriodTypeContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.PERIOD_TYPE_FILTER_NAME, parameters = {@ParamDef(name = EnablePeriodTypeContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.PERIOD_TYPE_PARAMETER_NAME, type = "java.lang.String")}, defaultCondition = "PERIOD_TYPE = :" + EnablePeriodTypeContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.PERIOD_TYPE_PARAMETER_NAME),
    @FilterDef(name = EnableExpirableContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.EXPIRABLE_FILTER_NAME, parameters = {@ParamDef(name = EnableExpirableContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.EXPIRY_DATE_PARAMETER, type = "java.util.Date")}, defaultCondition = ":" + EnableExpirableContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.EXPIRY_DATE_PARAMETER + " <= EXPIRY_DATE"),
    @FilterDef(name = EnableVersionPeriodContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.MOST_EFFECTIVE_VERSION_FILTER_NAME, parameters = {@ParamDef(name = EnableVersionPeriodContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.VERSION_START_DATE_PARAMETER, type = "java.util.Date"), @ParamDef(name = EnableVersionPeriodContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.VERSION_END_DATE_PARAMETER, type = "java.util.Date")}),
    @FilterDef(name = EnableVersionPeriodContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.VERSION_FILTER_NAME, parameters = {@ParamDef(name = EnableVersionPeriodContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.VERSION_START_DATE_PARAMETER, type = "java.util.Date"), @ParamDef(name = EnableVersionPeriodContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.VERSION_END_DATE_PARAMETER, type = "java.util.Date")}, defaultCondition = ":" + EnableVersionPeriodContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.VERSION_END_DATE_PARAMETER + " >= VERSION_START_DATE"),
    @FilterDef(name = EnableEffectivePeriodContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.DATE_EFFECTIVE_FILTER_NAME, parameters = {@ParamDef(name = EnableEffectivePeriodContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.EFFECTIVE_DATE_PARAMETER, type = "java.util.Date"), @ParamDef(name = EnableEffectivePeriodContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.INACTIVE_DATE_PARAMETER, type = "java.util.Date")}, defaultCondition = ":" + EnableEffectivePeriodContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.EFFECTIVE_DATE_PARAMETER + " <= INACTIVE_DATE AND :" + EnableEffectivePeriodContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.INACTIVE_DATE_PARAMETER + " >= EFFECTIVE_DATE AND INACTIVE_DATE > EFFECTIVE_DATE"),
    @FilterDef(name = EnablePropertyContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.PROPERTY_BOUND_FILTER_NAME, parameters = {@ParamDef(name = EnablePropertyContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.LOCATION_ID_PARAMETER, type = "java.lang.Long"), @ParamDef(name = EnableEffectivePeriodContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.EFFECTIVE_DATE_PARAMETER, type = "java.util.Date"), @ParamDef(name = EnableEffectivePeriodContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.INACTIVE_DATE_PARAMETER, type = "java.util.Date")}),
    @FilterDef(name = EnableExportContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.EXPORT_FILTER_NAME, parameters = {@ParamDef(name = EnableExportContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.EXPORT_TASK_PARAMETER, type = "java.lang.Long")}, defaultCondition = "not exists (select o.object_uuid from object_export o, workflow_event_task wet, workflow_task_defn wtd  where o.object_uuid = uuid and o.state = 'PASS' and o.workflow_event_task_id = wet.workflow_event_task_id and wet.workflow_task_id = wtd.workflow_task_id and wtd.workflow_task_id = :" + EnableExportContextFiltersDatabaseOperation.EXPORT_TASK_PARAMETER + " and o.create_date = (select max(o2.create_date) from object_export o2 where o2.object_uuid =o.object_uuid))")
        })

@GenericGenerator(name = "uuid-generator", strategy = "uuid") package com.x.app.hibernate;

import com.x.app.context.ContextSet;
import com.x.app.database.*;
import org.hibernate.annotations.FilterDef;
import org.hibernate.annotations.FilterDefs;
import org.hibernate.annotations.GenericGenerator;
import org.hibernate.annotations.ParamDef;

Thank you for posting your example! In the meantime, I was able to find out why I was getting the "No such filter" error - I completely forgot about adding the <mapping package="com.foo.xyz" /> into hibernate.cfg.xml!!! Well - a silly mistake. ;)

Yep, I meant to post that as well but I got distracted by shiny objects.

You have to do the same sort of thing in an annotation config.
