sessionfactory always null when done with javaconfig - spring

Question

The sessionFactory Bean which is autowired in my DAO is always showingup to be null. below is my project.

prop.setLocation(new ClassPathResource("dbProperties.properties"));
prop.setIgnoreUnresolvablePlaceholders(true);
return prop;
}

Answer 1

You have to call afterPropertiesSet() for initializing the bean. Now you only created the bean but not initialized.

Answer 2

I figured it out. As I was using Hibernate4 I need to use
StandardServiceRegistryBuilder class to get SessionFactory.
Hope this snippet helps.
public class HibernateUtil {
public SessionFactory getSessionFactory()
{
Configuration config = new Configuration().configure();
StandardServiceRegistryBuilder serviceRegistryBuilder = new StandardServiceRegistryBuilder().applySettings(config.getProperties());
SessionFactory session = config.buildSessionFactory(serviceRegistryBuilder.build());
return session;
}

Answer 3

I am putting sessionFactory configuration code here. Hope it will help you.
#Bean
// #Autowired
// #Bean(name = "sessionFactory")
public SessionFactory sessionFactory() throws IOException {
Properties hibernateProperties = new Properties();
hibernateProperties.put("hibernate.dialect", HIBERNATE_DIALECT);
hibernateProperties.put("hibernate.show_sql", HIBERNATE_SHOW_SQL);
hibernateProperties.put("hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto", HIBERNATE_HBM2DDL_AUTO);
LocalSessionFactoryBean sessionFactory = new LocalSessionFactoryBean();
sessionFactory.setDataSource(dataSource());
sessionFactory.setPackagesToScan(ENTITYMANAGER_PACKAGES_TO_SCAN);
sessionFactory.setHibernateProperties(hibernateProperties);
sessionFactory.afterPropertiesSet(); // Used in Spring-boot 2.x for initializing the bean
SessionFactory sf = sessionFactory.getObject();
System.out.println("## getSessionFactory: " + sf);
return sf;
}
