jpa - spring-orm-4.2.6 incompatible to hibernate-orm-5.2.0

Question

Latest Hibernate ORM release (5.2.0) renders Spring ORM (4.2.6, latest) incompatible because Hibernate had to rename its Session.getFlushMode to Session.getHibernateFlushMode resulting in this NoSuchMethodError:

Caused by: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.hibernate.Session.getFlushMode()Lorg/hibernate/FlushMode; at org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.HibernateJpaDialect.prepareFlushMode(HibernateJpaDialect.java:187) at org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.HibernateJpaDialect.prepareTransaction(HibernateJpaDialect.java:182) at org.springframework.orm.jpa.EntityManagerFactoryUtils.prepareTransaction(EntityManagerFactoryUtils.java:321) at org.springframework.orm.jpa.EntityManagerFactoryUtils.doGetTransactionalEntityManager(EntityManagerFactoryUtils.java:293)

When will Spring provide a HibernateJpaDialect compatible with Hibernate 5.2.0?

Bye

Spring Framework 4.3.0 will include support for Hibernate 5.2. See https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-14327
