Atomikos Forum

Hi,

I have a requirement wherein am inserting some data into my db and some point of time i am throwing RuntimeException on a particular condition.

When the RuntimeException is thrown i need to rollback the transaction along with this i need to insert some other data into my logs table.

I am using Spring with atomikos.

There is a handler configured in my app-context.xml which wraps transactions around my service class which calls the Dao methods.

If a RuntimeException occurs the transaction is getting rolledback but how to insert data into some other table??

If i catch the RuntimeException and in the catch block if i do the insert??

If RuntimeException is thrown i need to catch it somewhere if i catch the transaction is not rolling back

Please guide me...

<bean id="tService" class= "test.T1ServiceImpl">
    <property name="t1Dao"><ref bean="t1Dao" /></property>
    <property name="t2Dao"><ref bean="t2Dao" /></property>    
</bean>
<!-- Configure Spring to insert JTA transaction logic for all methods -->
<bean id="t1Service" class="org.springframework.transaction.interceptor.TransactionProxyFactoryBean">
    <property name="transactionManager"><ref bean="springTransactionManager" /></property>
    <property name="target"><ref bean="tService"  /></property>
    <property name="transactionAttributes">
        <props>
            <prop key="*">PROPAGATION_REQUIRED, -Exception</prop>
        </props>
    </property>
</bean>

In service class
    public void doInTransaction(){
        System.out.println(" Calling t1Dao.updateT1()");
        t1Dao.updateT1();
        System.out.println(" Calling t2Dao.updateT2()");
        t2Dao.updateT2();        
    }

    public void doInsert(){
        System.out.println(" Calling t1Dao.doInsert()");
        t1Dao.doInsert();
        System.out.println(" Calling t2Dao.doInsert()");
        t2Dao.doInsert();        
    }
    public void doProcess(){
        System.out.println(" In doProcess ");        
        try{
            System.out.println(" Calling doTransaction ");    
            doInTransaction();
        }catch(RuntimeException ex){
            ex.printStackTrace();
            System.out.println(" Calling doInsert ");
            doLog();
            System.out.println(" After doInsert ");            
        }
    }

Did you try with PROPAGATION_NESTED to isolate the code you want to have the exception in?
