How-to: Spring.NHibernate + Spring.Web

[Nicoláz]

Hi, is there any example (or doc) that show the recomended way to use Spring.NHibernate integration in a Spring.web application?

Thanks in advanced.

Hi,

Unfortunately there's no "all inclusive" sample available yet. But there isn't much difference. If you want to reuse one single session during a request, you should additionally specify OpenSessionInViewModule in your web.config:


<system.web>
...
<httpModules>
<add name="Spring" type="Spring.Context.Support.WebSupportModule, Spring.Web"/>
<add name="OpenSessionInView" type="Spring.Data.NHibernate.Support.OpenSessionInViewMo dule, Spring.Data.NHibernate"/>
...
</httpModules>
</system.web>


That's it.

cheers,
Erich

Ok, Thanks,

I have another question: I create my DAO objects using HibernateDaoSupport. How should I configure the scope of this objects? Is correct to use scope=request?

Thanks,

Hi,

as long as your DAOs don't maintain any state (which I would strongly recommend!) you should configure them as singletons (which is the default anyway for good reasons)

cheers,
