Hi,
Yes getClassMetaData is supposed to work, the getSessionFactory returns a plain/standard Hibernate SessionFactory
implementation (no Teneo overrides there). But I think that the 'problem' is in the parameter passed to the
getClassMetaData, maybe Vaadin uses the classname or the class while Teneo maps using entity names. I guess that is the
thing to check.
Btw, Teneo questions are answered on the main EMF newsgroup, which I added as a cc.
And if you are using EMF in a web server environment (so not RCP) then it can make sense to checkout the Texo projects,
it generates real pojo's (no EMF compile dependencies) while still supporting many/most EMF concepts (XML serialization,
featuremaps, etc.).

Now answering in the EMFT newsgroup because the reply in the EMF newsgroup does not seem to be visible in the web ui.
Let's continue in this newsgroup.
Hi Mike,
Now I am confused :-), this (see below) is the signature of the 2 getClassMetaData methods in the Hibernate
SessionFactory interface, they both take a parameter. Or do you mean another object (than SessionFactory)?
Teneo generates a hbm mapping in-memory and maps using the entity name (eclass name mostly). Teneo adds different kinds
of mapping information to make sure that different EMF constructs work correctly, so it not possible to directly add EMF
generated classes to the configuration object (this is different with Texo).
/**
* Retrieve the {@link ClassMetadata} associated with the given entity class.
*
* @param entityClass The entity class
*
* @return The metadata associated with the given entity; may be null if no such
* entity was mapped.
*
* @throws HibernateException Generally null is returned instead of throwing.
*/
public ClassMetadata getClassMetadata(Class entityClass);
/**
* Retrieve the {@link ClassMetadata} associated with the given entity class.
*
* @param entityName The entity class
*
* @return The metadata associated with the given entity; may be null if no such
* entity was mapped.
*
* @throws HibernateException Generally null is returned instead of throwing.
* @since 3.0
*/
public ClassMetadata getClassMetadata(String entityName);

Hi Mike,
Teneo maps using entity names, so if possible you should use the getClassMetaData method which expects a string and pass
it the entity name. Is that possible?

Hi Mike,
The data store has this method:
getPersistentClass(String entityName)
which returns the Hibernate persistent class, but I am not sure if the persistentclass contains the java implementation
class, you need to check what gets returned.
There is the EModelResolver class, but it is only set after the datastore has been initialized:
EModelResolver.getInstance().getJavaClass(EClassifier eClassifier)
Note that the PersistenceOptions.ALSO_MAP_AS_CLASS option influences the mapping, but its default value should be fine.
