Best practice - use a combination of Tapestry and Hibernate "tricks".
Use separate configuration files, and pick to use based on the mode
you are running in your AppModule:
public void
contributeHibernateSessionSource(OrderedConfiguration<HibernateConfigurer>
configurer,
@InjectService("DefaultHibernateConfigurer")
HibernateConfigurer
defaultHibernateConfigurer) {
class RunModeDependentHibernateConfigurer implements
HibernateConfigurer {
public void configure(org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration
configuration) {
if (productionMode ||
"true".equals(System.getProperty(Symbols.FORCE_PERSISTENT_DB)))
configuration
.configure("/hibernate-production.cfg.xml");
else
configuration.configure("/hibernate-test.cfg.xml");
}
}
;
configurer.add(productionMode == true ? "production" : "test",
new
RunModeDependentHibernateConfigurer(), "before:*");
}
I had earlier (in bind()) set the static productionMode flag based on
the value of System.getProperty(SymbolConstants.PRODUCTION_MODE). We
also use another flag to force the persistent db even if we are
running in development mode (handy when you want to with the
production database).
Even if you don't understand the code, copy and paste it to your
AppModule and resolve errors and see how it behaves, then read the
documentation for tapestry-ioc and tapestry-hibernate modules.
