    public class OpenSessionInViewFilter

extends OncePerRequestFilter

Servlet 2.3 Filter that binds a Hibernate Session to the thread for the entire processing of the request. Intended for the "Open Session in View" pattern, i.e. to allow for lazy loading in web views despite the original transactions already being completed.

This filter makes Hibernate Sessions available via the current thread, which will be autodetected by transaction managers. It is suitable for service layer transactions via `HibernateTransactionManager` as well as for non-transactional execution (if configured appropriately).

NOTE: This filter will by default not flush the Hibernate Session, with the flush mode set to `FlushMode.NEVER`. It assumes to be used in combination with service layer transactions that care for the flushing: The active transaction manager will temporarily change the flush mode to `FlushMode.AUTO` during a read-write transaction, with the flush mode reset to `FlushMode.NEVER` at the end of each transaction.

WARNING: Applying this filter to existing logic can cause issues that have not appeared before, through the use of a single Hibernate Session for the processing of an entire request. In particular, the reassociation of persistent objects with a Hibernate Session has to occur at the very beginning of request processing, to avoid clashes with already loaded instances of the same objects.

Looks up the SessionFactory in Spring's root web application context. Supports a "sessionFactoryBeanName" filter init-param in `web.xml`; the default bean name is "sessionFactory". Looks up the SessionFactory on each request, to avoid initialization order issues (when using ContextLoaderServlet, the root application context will get initialized after this filter).

### OpenSessionInViewFilter

    public OpenSessionInViewFilter()

Method Detail

### setSessionFactoryBeanName

    public void setSessionFactoryBeanName(String sessionFactoryBeanName)

  Set the bean name of the SessionFactory to fetch from Spring's root application context. Default is "sessionFactory".

  See Also:
    `DEFAULT_SESSION_FACTORY_BEAN_NAME`

### getSessionFactoryBeanName

    protected String getSessionFactoryBeanName()

  Return the bean name of the SessionFactory to fetch from Spring's root application context.

### doFilterInternal

    protected void doFilterInternal(HttpServletRequest request,
                                    HttpServletResponse response,
                                    FilterChain filterChain)
                             throws ServletException,
                                    IOException

  Description copied from class: `OncePerRequestFilter`
  Same contract as for `doFilter`, but guaranteed to be just invoked once per request. Provides HttpServletRequest and HttpServletResponse arguments instead of the default ServletRequest and ServletResponse ones.

  Specified by:
    `doFilterInternal` in class `OncePerRequestFilter`
  Throws:
    `ServletException`
    `IOException`

### lookupSessionFactory

    protected SessionFactory lookupSessionFactory(HttpServletRequest request)

  Look up the SessionFactory that this filter should use, taking the current HTTP request as argument.

  The default implementation delegates to the `lookupSessionFactory()` variant without arguments.

  Parameters:
    `request` - the current request
  Returns:
    the SessionFactory to use

### lookupSessionFactory

    protected SessionFactory lookupSessionFactory()

  Look up the SessionFactory that this filter should use.

  The default implementation looks for a bean with the specified name in Spring's root application context.

  Returns:
    the SessionFactory to use
  See Also:
    `getSessionFactoryBeanName()`

### openSession

    protected Session openSession(SessionFactory sessionFactory)
                           throws DataAccessResourceFailureException

  Open a Session for the SessionFactory that this filter uses.

  The default implementation delegates to the `SessionFactory.openSession` method and sets the `Session`'s flush mode to "MANUAL".

  Parameters:
    `sessionFactory` - the SessionFactory that this filter uses
  Returns:
    the Session to use
  Throws:
    `DataAccessResourceFailureException` - if the Session could not be created
  See Also:
    `FlushMode.MANUAL`
