Hi,

by default eclipselink use the default constructor to create new instances of entity objects. All my entity class sources will be generated, so I can't place business code there. My idea is to create
business object classes extends the entity object and place the business code there. I try to use the ClassDescriptor.useFactoryInstantiationPolicy method to tell eclipselink not to use the default constructor. Without success Sad

        EntityManager em = emf.createEntityManager();

        ClassDescriptor desc = ((EntityManagerImpl) em).getServerSession().getClassDescriptor(Kunde.class);
        desc.useFactoryInstantiationPolicy( KundeFactory.class,  "create2");

        em.getTransaction().begin();


This Nullpointer is thrown Sad

Does anybody known how to use the useFactoryInstantiationPolicy method ?

Thanx,
André

Currently my workaround looks like

  
private static synchronized  Map<Class<?>,Class<?>> loadDomainObjectMap( Session session ) {

        if( domainObjectMap != null )
            return domainObjectMap;

        Map<Class<?>,Class<?>> map = new HashMap<Class<?>, Class<?>>();

        for( Object e : session.getDescriptors().keySet() ) {
            Class<?> c = (Class<?>) e;

            String name = domainObjectPackage + c.getSimpleName() + "BO";

            try {
                Class<?> d = Tx.class.getClassLoader().loadClass(name);
                map.put(c, d);
            } catch( ClassNotFoundException ex ) {
            }

        }

        return domainObjectMap = map;
    }

    private static Map<Class<?>,Class<?>> getDomainObjectMap( Session session ) {
        if( domainObjectMap != null )
            return domainObjectMap;

        return loadDomainObjectMap(session);
    }

        
EntityManager em = emf.createEntityManager();
        
Session session = ((EntityManagerImpl) em).getActiveSession();
        
for( Map.Entry< Class<?>, Class<?> > e : getDomainObjectMap(session).entrySet() ) {

  ClassDescriptor desc = session.getClassDescriptor( e.getKey() );
  desc.setInstantiationPolicy( new InstantiationPolicy() );
  desc.setJavaClass( e.getValue() );

  session.getDescriptors().put( e.getValue(), desc );
}

I have something similar:

custom-entity extends generated-entity extends generic-bean

The generated entities are reversed engineered from the DB, they implement @MappedSuperclass.
The custom entities (they initially contain only the class name and @Entity) are only created once and never changed by the reverse engineering logic.

If you do everything around the custom entity classes, you can use regular EMF and EM's

You cannot configure descriptors after your session is already connected as they will not be initialized. You need to perform this configuration before login(), either using a DescriptorCustomizer (@Customizer) or a SessionCustomizer.
