JPAKnowledgeServiceBean does not initialize JPAKnowledgeFactoryService

private JPAKnowledgeFactoryService jpaKnowledgeServiceProvider;

in "JPAKnowledgeServiceBean" is not initialized. It used to be by:

protected void initDao() {

... ... ...

jpaKnowledgeServiceProvider = node.get( JPAKnowledgeFactoryService.class );
if ( jpaKnowledgeServiceProvider instanceof JPAKnowledgeProviderLocalClient )

{ JPAKnowledgeProviderLocalClient local = (JPAKnowledgeProviderLocalClient) jpaKnowledgeServiceProvider; local.setCommandServiceClass( SpringSingleSessionCommandService.class ); }

else

{ throw new RuntimeDroolsException( "JPAKnowledgeService is not instance of: " + JPAKnowledgeProviderLocalClient.class.getName() ); }

}

but now this code is commented out [ in the latest SNAPSHOT as well ]. Therefore both:

public StatefulKnowledgeSession newStatefulKnowledgeSession() {}

and

public StatefulKnowledgeSession loadStatefulKnowledgeSession(final int sessionId) {}

FAIL, since they use jpaKnowledgeServiceProvider to create / load Sessions:

return jpaKnowledgeServiceProvider.newStatefulKnowledgeSession..
return jpaKnowledgeServiceProvider.loadStatefulKnowledgeSession..

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I understand "SpringSingleSessionCommandService" was removed, but this is not the reason to document the whole thing as it breaks the code base that depends on it.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If "JPAKnowledgeServiceBean" is deprecated, or a different configuration required, please advise. Is it documented?

Thank you,
