bean id specific tx:advice

[chudak]

If you want to fail or commit on each iteration, the iteration loop needs to be outside of the transaction, the logic in the iteration needs to be wrapped in the transaction, e.g.

while(true)
{
    // start new transaction    
    dao1.doStuff();
    dao2.doStuff();
    // end transaction
}

This is tricky because transactional proxies and annotations don't work when you call a method on the same object, they only work when you are entering the object.

What this means is that the method that does the work needs to be in another object than the method that runs the loop so you can apply the proxy to the work and not the loop.

public class Looper
{
    private Worker worker;
    public void setWorker(Worker worker)
    {
        this.worker = worker;
    }
   
    public void loop()
    {
        while (true)
        { 
            try
            {
                worker.work();
            }
            catch(Throwable t){// ignore or log}
        }
    }
}

public interface Worker
{
    public void work();
}

public class WorkerImpl implements Worker
{
    private Dao dao1;
    private Dao dao2;

    // Setters elided
 
    @Transactional(propagation=Propagation.REQUIRES_NEW
                         rollbackFor=DaoException.class)
    public void work()
    {
        dao1.doStuff();
        dao2.doStuff();
    }
}

I really, don't know, where I am going wrong.
I created a class having my method with all the required dao calls and made as an aspect. calling the same method in another class. But still it is not doing the rollback. It is ignoring the failed one and going forward.
My daos are using hibernate. does this a bottleneck?

Is the exception that you are throwing a subclass of RuntimeException?

[springTek]

Yes. my appexception is a subclass of Runtime Exception.
