I agree that sounds very expensive, I don't know how Hibernate works yet so I didn't know what a Hibernate Session really consists of to know if that was as resource intensive as it sounded.
If this is the case, then I suppose using the HibernateUtil that I am using now from the Hibernate docs is probably the way to go (does the ThreadLocal business....)

Wouldn't that be pretty resource intensive since it would basically mean that you have a database connection for every user session in your app. Typically that is pretty bad and getting a new connection from a connection pool is usually pretty quick.
I'm unfamiliar with how hibernate manges sessions and connections so let me know if I'm wrong.
I'm looking at using Hibernate in my struts actions, but also in my ejbs so of course I wouldn't be able to tie hibernate sessions with http sessions.
Thanks,

Subject: OT: Hibernate Session to User Session
I was reading in the Hibernate forums that when you have a WebApp > DAO
Hibernate > DB design, and you open/close each Hibernate session at
every single DAO method call (what I do now) its actually quite expensive, and is suggested that you attempt to maintain a Hibernate Session in conjunction with a user Session to increase performance.
I had a question for anyone that has done this (without using SpringFramework). My gut-reaction to this was to add a HttpSessionListener to my webapp that created and stored a Hibernate session in the user's session, and then close it when the Session expired... will this not work? Anyone else have a good solution for this?
TIA, Riyad
