Interface TransactionStatus

All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaultTransactionStatus

public interface TransactionStatus

Representation of the status of a transaction, consisting of a transaction object and some status flags.

Transactional code can use this to retrieve status information, and to programmatically request a rollback (instead of throwing an exception that causes an implicit rollback).

Method Detail

isNewTransaction

public boolean isNewTransaction()

Return if the transaction is new, else participating in an existing transaction.

setRollbackOnly

public void setRollbackOnly()

Set the transaction rollback-only. This instructs the transaction manager that the only possible outcome of the transaction may be a rollback, proceeding with the normal applicaiton workflow though (i.e. no exception).

For transactions managed by TransactionTemplate or TransactionInterceptor. An alternative way to trigger a rollback is throwing an application exception.

public boolean isRollbackOnly()
