Spring transaction rollback aop config

[scranthdaddy]

Hi, I have a question regarding rolling back Spring transactions using aop definitions.

<tx:advice id="txAdvice" transaction-manager="transactionManager">  
    <tx:attributes>  
        <tx:method name="save*" />  
    </tx:attributes>  
</tx:advice>

If I call service.save(), and save() throws a RuntimeException then everything works fine - the transaction is successfully rolled back.

However if I call service.test(), and all test() does is call save(), then the transaction never gets rolled back.

It's almost like Spring's TransactionInterceptor doesn't fire unless you call service.save() directly.

Thoughts?

That is a self-call example.
