StatelessSession being cast to Session in Abstract

Question

I'm trying to do a simple save on a StatelessSession. Can someone spot what I'm doing wrong to end up in the Hibernate method that tries to do an invalid cast of StatelessSession to Session. I would appreciate any feedback.

My example code: StatelessSession statelessSession = getSessionFactory().openStatelessSession(); Transaction tx = statelessSession.beginTransaction(); Object ret = null; try { ret = statelessSession.insert(obj); tx.commit(); statelessSession.close();
} catch (Throwable t) { System.out.println("exception: " + t.getMessage()); tx.rollback(); } return (T) ret;

The exception occurs on the .insert(obj) call. Tracing the code lands me in the AbstractEntityPersister class which attempts to cast that StatelessSession to Session in this method:

    private void preInsertInMemoryValueGeneration(Object[] fields, Object object, SessionImplementor session) {
    if ( getEntityMetamodel().hasPreInsertGeneratedValues() ) {
        final InMemoryValueGenerationStrategy[] strategies = getEntityMetamodel().getInMemoryValueGenerationStrategies();
        for ( int i = 0; i < strategies.length; i++ ) {

            if ( strategies[i] != null && strategies[i].getGenerationTiming().includesInsert() ) {
                fields[i] = strategies[i].getValueGenerator().generateValue( (Session) session, object );  // <-- bad cast here
                setPropertyValue( object, i, fields[i] );
            }
        }
    }
}

Here's a stack trace:

Answer 1

There is already an issue request opened for this! This should be available in Hibernate 5.2.2

https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-11048

getEntityMetamodel().hasPreInsertGeneratedValues() returns true as you must be having something which is generated by hibernate before insert!

Example : Timestamp or Auto generated ids etc.
