Replacement or workaround for org.hibernate.jmx.statisticsservice in hibernate 5.2.1

Question

I have upgraded hibernate 3.x to 5.2.1 in my application. After upgrade, I am getting following error when I run my application,

org.springframework.beans.factory.CannotLoadBeanClassException: Cannot find class [org.hibernate.jmx.StatisticsService] for bean with name 'clientRegHibernateStatistics' defined in ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/classes/hibernate-context.xml]; nested exception is java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.hibernate.jmx.StatisticsService

I have google to find the solution. I came to know as Hibernate StatisticsService is deprecated from 4.0 and removed in hibernate 5.2.1.

Refer - https://stackoverflow.com/a/23606322 and https://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/orm/4.0/javadocs/deprecated-list.html

I am using spring 4.3.2 version with hibernate 5.2.1 for my application.

What is the quick workaround or replacement for org.hibernate.jmx.StatisticsService ?

Kindly help.

As a work around they suggest to use your own spring bean. From Hibernate JIRA HHH-6190

public class HibernateStatisticsFactoryBean implements FactoryBean<Statistics> {

  @Autowired
  private EntityManagerFactory entityManagerFactory;

  @Override
  public Statistics getObject() throws Exception {
    SessionFactory sessionFactory = ((HibernateEntityManagerFactory) entityManagerFactory).getSessionFactory();
    return sessionFactory.getStatistics();
  }

  @Override
  public Class<?> getObjectType() {
    return Statistics.class;
  }

  @Override
  public boolean isSingleton() {
    return true;
  }
}

Then you can export this as MBean: From Spring Doc
