Package org.springframework.transaction.interceptor

Class TransactionAspectSupport

java.lang.Object

org.springframework.transaction.interceptor.TransactionAspectSupport

All Implemented Interfaces:

Aware, BeanFactoryAware, InitializingBean

Direct Known Subclasses:

TransactionInterceptor

public abstract class TransactionAspectSupport
extends Object
implements BeanFactoryAware, InitializingBean

Base class for transactional aspects, such as the TransactionInterceptor or an AspectJ aspect.

This enables the underlying Spring transaction infrastructure to be used easily to implement an aspect for any aspect system.

Subclasses are responsible for calling methods in this class in the correct order.

If no transaction name has been specified in the TransactionAttribute, the exposed name will be the fully-qualified class name + "." + method name (by default).

Uses the Strategy design pattern. A PlatformTransactionManager or ReactiveTransactionManager implementation will perform the actual transaction management, and a TransactionAttributeSource (for example, annotation-based) is used for determining transaction definitions for a particular class or method.

A transaction aspect is serializable if its TransactionManager and TransactionAttributeSource are serializable.

Since:

1.1

Method Details

currentTransactionInfo

protected static @Nullable TransactionAspectSupport.TransactionInfo currentTransactionInfo()
                                                                                    throws NoTransactionException

Subclasses can use this to return the current TransactionInfo. Only subclasses that cannot handle all operations in one method, such as an AspectJ aspect involving distinct before and after advice, need to use this mechanism to get at the current TransactionInfo. An around advice such as an AOP Alliance MethodInterceptor can hold a reference to the TransactionInfo throughout the aspect method.

A TransactionInfo will be returned even if no transaction was created. The TransactionInfo.hasTransaction() method can be used to query this.

To find out about specific transaction characteristics, consider using TransactionSynchronizationManager's isSynchronizationActive() and/or isActualTransactionActive() methods.

Returns:

the TransactionInfo bound to this thread, or null if none

Throws:

NoTransactionException

See Also:

• TransactionAspectSupport.TransactionInfo.hasTransaction()
• TransactionSynchronizationManager.isSynchronizationActive()
• TransactionSynchronizationManager.isActualTransactionActive()

currentTransactionStatus

public static TransactionStatus currentTransactionStatus()
                                                  throws NoTransactionException

Return the transaction status of the current method invocation. Mainly intended for code that wants to set the current transaction rollback-only but not throw an application exception.

This exposes the locally declared transaction boundary with its declared name and characteristics, as managed by the aspect. Ar runtime, the local boundary may participate in an outer transaction: If you need transaction metadata from such an outer transaction (the actual resource transaction) instead, consider using TransactionSynchronizationManager.

Throws:

NoTransactionException - if the transaction info cannot be found, because the method was invoked outside an AOP invocation context

See Also:

• TransactionSynchronizationManager.getCurrentTransactionName()
• TransactionSynchronizationManager.isCurrentTransactionReadOnly()

setTransactionManagerBeanName

public void setTransactionManagerBeanName(@Nullable String transactionManagerBeanName)

Specify the name of the default transaction manager bean.

This can either point to a traditional PlatformTransactionManager or a ReactiveTransactionManager for reactive transaction management.

getTransactionManagerBeanName

protected final @Nullable String getTransactionManagerBeanName()

Return the name of the default transaction manager bean.

setTransactionManager

public void setTransactionManager(@Nullable TransactionManager transactionManager)

Specify the default transaction manager to use to drive transactions.

This can either be a traditional PlatformTransactionManager or a ReactiveTransactionManager for reactive transaction management.

The default transaction manager will be used if a qualifier has not been declared for a given transaction or if an explicit name for the default transaction manager bean has not been specified.

See Also:

• setTransactionManagerBeanName(java.lang.String)

getTransactionManager

public @Nullable TransactionManager getTransactionManager()

Return the default transaction manager, or null if unknown.

This can either be a traditional PlatformTransactionManager or a ReactiveTransactionManager for reactive transaction management.

setTransactionAttributes

public void setTransactionAttributes(Properties transactionAttributes)

Set properties with method names as keys and transaction attribute descriptors (parsed via TransactionAttributeEditor) as values: for example, key = "myMethod", value = "PROPAGATION_REQUIRED,readOnly".

Note: Method names are always applied to the target class, no matter if defined in an interface or the class itself.

Internally, a NameMatchTransactionAttributeSource will be created from the given properties.

See Also:

• setTransactionAttributeSource(org.springframework.transaction.interceptor.TransactionAttributeSource)
• TransactionAttributeEditor
• NameMatchTransactionAttributeSource

setTransactionAttributeSources

public void setTransactionAttributeSources(TransactionAttributeSource... transactionAttributeSources)

Set multiple transaction attribute sources which are used to find transaction attributes. Will build a CompositeTransactionAttributeSource for the given sources.

See Also:

• CompositeTransactionAttributeSource
• MethodMapTransactionAttributeSource
• NameMatchTransactionAttributeSource
• AnnotationTransactionAttributeSource

setTransactionAttributeSource

public void setTransactionAttributeSource(@Nullable TransactionAttributeSource transactionAttributeSource)

Set the transaction attribute source which is used to find transaction attributes. If specifying a String property value, a PropertyEditor will create a MethodMapTransactionAttributeSource from the value.

See Also:

• TransactionAttributeSourceEditor
• MethodMapTransactionAttributeSource
• NameMatchTransactionAttributeSource
• AnnotationTransactionAttributeSource

getTransactionAttributeSource

public @Nullable TransactionAttributeSource getTransactionAttributeSource()

Return the transaction attribute source.

setBeanFactory

public void setBeanFactory(@Nullable BeanFactory beanFactory)

Set the BeanFactory to use for retrieving TransactionManager beans.

Specified by:

Parameters:

beanFactory - owning BeanFactory (never null). The bean can immediately call methods on the factory.

See Also:

• BeanInitializationException

getBeanFactory

protected final @Nullable BeanFactory getBeanFactory()

Return the BeanFactory to use for retrieving TransactionManager beans.

afterPropertiesSet

public void afterPropertiesSet()

Check that required properties were set.

Specified by:

afterPropertiesSet in interface InitializingBean

invokeWithinTransaction

protected @Nullable Object invokeWithinTransaction(Method method,
 @Nullable Class<?> targetClass,

                                            throws Throwable

General delegate for around-advice-based subclasses, delegating to several other template methods on this class. Able to handle CallbackPreferringPlatformTransactionManager as well as regular PlatformTransactionManager implementations and ReactiveTransactionManager implementations for reactive return types.

Parameters:

method - the Method being invoked

targetClass - the target class that we're invoking the method on

invocation - the callback to use for proceeding with the target invocation

Returns:

the return value of the method, if any

Throws:

Throwable - propagated from the target invocation

clearTransactionManagerCache

protected void clearTransactionManagerCache()

Clear the transaction manager cache.

determineTransactionManager

protected @Nullable TransactionManager determineTransactionManager(@Nullable TransactionAttribute txAttr,
 @Nullable Class<?> targetClass)

Determine the specific transaction manager to use for the given transaction.

Parameters:

txAttr - the current transaction attribute

targetClass - the target class that the attribute has been declared on

Since:

6.2

determineTransactionManager

@Deprecated
protected @Nullable TransactionManager determineTransactionManager(@Nullable TransactionAttribute txAttr)

Deprecated.

as of 6.2, in favor of determineTransactionManager(TransactionAttribute, Class)

Determine the specific transaction manager to use for the given transaction.

methodIdentification

protected @Nullable String methodIdentification(Method method,
 @Nullable Class<?> targetClass)

Convenience method to return a String representation of this Method for use in logging. Can be overridden in subclasses to provide a different identifier for the given method.

The default implementation returns null, indicating the use of DefaultTransactionAttribute.getDescriptor() instead, ending up as ClassUtils.getQualifiedMethodName(Method, Class).

Parameters:

method - the method we're interested in

targetClass - the class that the method is being invoked on

Returns:

a String representation identifying this method

 @Nullable TransactionAttribute txAttr,
 String joinpointIdentification)

Create a transaction if necessary based on the given TransactionAttribute.

Allows callers to perform custom TransactionAttribute lookups through the TransactionAttributeSource.

Parameters:

txAttr - the TransactionAttribute (may be null)

joinpointIdentification - the fully qualified method name (used for monitoring and logging purposes)

Returns:

a TransactionInfo object, whether a transaction was created. The hasTransaction() method on TransactionInfo can be used to tell if there was a transaction created.

See Also:

• getTransactionAttributeSource()

prepareTransactionInfo

protected TransactionAspectSupport.TransactionInfo prepareTransactionInfo(@Nullable PlatformTransactionManager tm,
 @Nullable TransactionAttribute txAttr,
 String joinpointIdentification,
