Why to use jpadialect in JpaTransactionManager

I am learning spring 3.0 from Spring in Action.

There it talks about importance of having jpadialect in JpaTranactionManager

<bean id="transactionManager"
              class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.JpaTransactionManager">
          <property name="entityManagerFactory" ref="entityManagerFactory" />
          <property name="jpaDialect" ref="jpaDialect" />
        </bean>
<bean id="jpaDialect"
        class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.HibernateJpaDialect" />

However the dialect is already present in declaration of entityManagerFactory via jpaVendorAdaptor.

<bean id="entityManagerFactory" class= "org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean">
  <property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
  <property name="jpaVendorAdapter" ref="jpaVendorAdapter" />
</bean>
<bean id="jpaVendorAdapter" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.HibernateJpaVendorAdapter">
  <property name="database" value="HSQL" />
  <property name="showSql" value="true"/>
  <property name="generateDdl" value="false"/>
  <property name="databasePlatform"
            value="org.hibernate.dialect.HSQLDialect" />
</bean>  
 <bean id="dataSource" class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource. DriverManagerDataSource">
   <property name="driverClassName" value="org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver" />
   <property name="url" value="jdbc:hsqldb:hsql://localhost/spitter/spitter" />
   <property name="username" value="sa" />
   <property name="password" value="" />
 </bean>

Is the use of dialect in JpaTranactionManager redundant?

The use of jpaDialect in JpaTransactionManager is no redundant to jpaVendorAdapter config. Their config have different purpose.

You can refer this post with good explanation.
