I'm trying to configure spring data auditing.
I use Hibernate 4.1.6, hibernate-jpa 2.0, spring-data-jpa 1.1.0, spring 3.1.2 (I've added spring-aspects to the dependecies since I got an error without it).
I've based my project configuration on this example with some modifications:
- My entity don't extend AbstractAuditable but implements Auditable interface
- I don't have a persistence.xml where to put the jadira properties and I used the following annotation on DateTime properties instead:
@Type(type="org.jadira.usertype.dateandtime.joda.PersistentDateTime")
I don't have any error but the auditing doesn't work: the auditing field are null after I create a record.
Does anyone know what I've done wrong? What can I check? Any suggestion is welcome.
Here is the entity code:
@Entity
public class TestEntity implements Auditable<String, Long> {
@Column
@Id
@SequenceGenerator(...)
@GeneratedValue(...)
private Long id;
@Column
private String createdBy;
@Column
@Type(type="org.jadira.usertype.dateandtime.joda.PersistentDateTime")
private DateTime creationDate;
@Column
private String lastModifiedBy;
@Column
@Type(type="org.jadira.usertype.dateandtime.joda.PersistentDateTime")
private DateTime lastModifiedDate;
// getters and setters
}
This is the spring context configuration:
<jpa:repositories base-package="...." />
<jpa:auditing auditor-aware-ref="auditorAware" />
<bean id="entityManagerFactory" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean">
<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
<property name="packagesToScan" value="..." />
<property name="mappingResources">
<value>.../domain-orm.xml"</value>
</property>
<property name="jpaVendorAdapter">
<bean class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.HibernateJpaVendorAdapter">
...
</bean>
</property>
<property name="jpaProperties">
<util:properties>
<prop key="hibernate.generate_statistics">${hibernate.generate_statistics}</prop>
</util:properties>
</property>
</bean>
<context:annotation-config />
<bean id="auditorAware" class="...TestAuditorAware"/>
My auditor aware:
public class TestAuditorAware implements AuditorAware<String> {
@Override
public String getCurrentAuditor() {
return "TEST";
}
}
My domain-orm.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<entity-mappings xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/orm"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/orm orm_2_0.xsd"
version="2.0">
<persistence-unit-metadata>
<persistence-unit-defaults>
<entity-listeners>
<entity-listener class="org.springframework.data.jpa.domain.auditing.support.AuditingEntityListener" />
</entity-listeners>
</persistence-unit-defaults>
</persistence-unit-metadata>
</entity-mappings>
Update: I think that the problem is related to AuditingEntityListener that doesn't get registered. I added a the orm.xml configuration but this didn't solved. I think the listener still doesn't get registered.
