I have a Hibernate transaction where I'm reading and modifying data. Upon successful completion of this modification, I need to send out some notifications using this data.
Basically, I want to continue to be able to read the data that's stored in memory after it's already been committed to the database. I don't need to change it.
Define "use": if you're just accessing fields, shouldn't be an issue--but I don't know anything about the object in question, how it's being used, configured, etc.
