How to always enable my Hibernate filters in a spring application?

Having a Hibernate (3.5)/Spring (3.0)/BlazeDS/Flex stack-based application, I need to apply filters for some of my domain classes as shown below.

@FilterDef(name="notDeletedFilter")
@Filter(name="notDeletedFilter", condition="deleted=0")
public class Item {
   private boolean deleted;
  //setter and getter
}

These filters should always be applied in my application. However, according to the hibernate documentation, by default, filters are not enabled for a given hibernate session.

So my question is very simple: How can I enable all defined hibernate filters as above for all Hibernate sessions? Is there anyway to configure my Hibernate Session factory in a spring xml configuration file in order to apply these filters?

As of Hibernate 6.5, autoEnabled parameter on the @FilterDef can be set to true which enables filter on every session by default. Refer to the documentation.

Additionally for spring, JpaVendorAdapter.postProcessEntityManager or setEntityManagerInitializer(Consumer<EntityManager>) method on JpaTransactionManager as well as LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean can be used. Refer to this issue for more information.

You could use AOP (aspect oriented programming) to configure the filter.

If you are using Spring's HibernateTemplate, one solution is to extend it and override the enableFilters method. In it, explicitly enable the filters you need.
