Injecting fields via Spring into entities loaded by Hibernate

Question

I am looking for a way to inject certain properties via Spring in a bean that is loaded from the DB by Hibernate.

E.g.

class Student {
   int id; //l         


        

Answer 1

You can inject the dependency into the hibernate DAO bean for the entity and set the property on the entity before returning it from the DAO.

This will only work if you are loading the entity from the DAO
