11.5.8.1. Integrators
The
org.hibernate.integrator.spi.Integrator is intended to provide a simple means for allowing developers to hook into the process of building a functioning SessionFactory. The org.hibernate.integrator.spi.Integrator interface defines 2 methods of interest: integrate allows us to hook into the building process; disintegrate allows us to hook into a SessionFactory shutting down.
Note
There is a 3rd method defined on
org.hibernate.integrator.spi.Integrator, an overloaded form of integrate accepting a org.hibernate.metamodel.source.MetadataImplementor instead of org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration. This form is intended for use with the new metamodel code scheduled for completion in 5.0.
In addition to the discovery approach provided by the IntegratorService, applications can manually register Integrator implementations when building the BootstrapServiceRegistry.
