Hi I am new to hibernate and have a problem that I need to solve:

I am using a postGIS with hibernate.

This is the series of events that are happening:

I retrieve object A in session X..

I retrieve object B in session X.


then down the road I want to call A.contains(B) in session Y.

however because contains() is a registered function that is defined in my dialect I need to open another session before this call can be made.

Any ideas on how I could open another session?

Thanks for your time.

Sounds like a long conversation with detached objects. Take a look at the user guide sections 11.1 and 11.3.3.

Hi

thanks for your reply. I have read that article once before and now, but I am looking for a way to have hibernate automatically take care of opening the session. Is that possible?


The function contain() is called at the service layer.
