@Transactional New Transactional propagation

[vijaynairis]

Hi,

I use the @Transactional annotation for my transaction management within my application. Not JTA but resource-local and JPA Transaction Manager is my platform transaction manager class

I am facing a peculiar problem...

I got a method X() which retrieves a set of records to be processed and within that method I got a method Y() which is to be run in a new transaction context. So here is the source code:

@Transactional
public void X(){
List<Records> rec = manager.getAllRecsForProcessing();

for(Record a:rec){
Y(rec);
}
}

@Transactional
public void Y(Record rec){
//Do Processing
}

When I run this I got each processing of Y() tied to the main transaction started by X(). I want Y to start a new transaction context...Can I run Y() using Propagation.REQUIRES_NEW as from the javadoc it states that this can be run only in a JTA environment ?

Can someone please point out how to go about a situation like this.

Thanks in advance

Rgds...VJ

If you are doing this within the same method it won't work.

Do you mean the "same object"?

The methodY() has to have annotation like the following

@Transactional(propagation = Propagation.REQUIRES_NEW)
public methodY() {
}

Also this method has to be in a different class as mentioned above.

Not exactly. If not Spring proxy-based "AOP," but AspectJ is used, method may reside in the same class.
