10.3.2. Using a Seam-managed Hibernate session

Seam-managed Hibernate sessions work in a similar fashion. In components.xml: 
<persistence:hibernate-session-factory name="hibernateSessionFactory"/>

<persistence:managed-hibernate-session name="bookingDatabase" 
             auto-create="true" 
             session-factory-jndi-name="java:/bookingSessionFactory"/>

Here, java:/bookingSessionFactory is the name of the session factory specified in hibernate.cfg.xml. 
<session-factory name="java:/bookingSessionFactory">
  <property name="transaction.flush_before_completion">true</property>
  <property name="connection.release_mode">after_statement</property>
  <property name="transaction.manager_lookup_class">
    org.hibernate.transaction.JBossTransactionManagerLookup
  </property>
  <property name="transaction.factory_class">
    org.hibernate.transaction.JTATransactionFactory
  </property>
  <property name="connection.datasource">
    java:/bookingDatasource
  </property>
  ...
</session-factory>

Note

Seam does not synchronize the session with the database, so always enable hibernate.transaction.flush_before_completion to ensure that the session is automatically synchronized before the JTA transaction commits.
We can now inject a managed Hibernate Session into our JavaBean components with the following code: 
@In Session bookingDatabase;
