[Springframework-developer] HibernateDaoSupport

[Colin S. <col...@ex...>]

Juergen,

The existing code in HibernateDaoSupport created a HibernateTemplate 
with the allowCreate flag as true by default, and as the 
setSessionFactory method where the template was created was final, there 
was no way to override this. I have created a protected field called 
defaultTemplateAllowCreateValue (true by default to maintain existing 
behaviour), which a user HibernateDaoSupport subclass may override. 
Additionally, I have added a setter for this default value, so a DAO 
instance can be set to true or false specifically (without having to 
subclass). This value does not affect any HibernateTemplate passed in 
explicitly.
