NameMatchTransactionAttributeSource.isMatch(...)

[Martin Kersten]

Currently the isMatch method only checks for XXX* and *XXX matches. Since this is a way strickt, I ran into an issue related to fully specifying the method name.

So it wasn't that hard to come up with something like this:

<bean...>
...
                <property name="transactionAttributes">
                        <props>
                              <prop key="myMethod">PROPAGATION_REQUIRED,read_only</prop>               
                        </props>
                </property>
</bean>

So I guess the method should for equality, too.


Thanks,

Have you tried this :-)

If you look at the code a bit better, you'll see that isMatch is called only _after_ an exact match (equality test) fails.

:shock: Ummm, ähhh,... Aha!

Well I see, this one does the trick:

TransactionAttribute attr = (TransactionAttribute) this.nameMap.get(methodName);
		if (attr != null) {
			return attr;
		}

I had a problem half a year ago. I visit the source and though hey no equal match, just add stars. So I changed it and well I guess ... Uhm don't know.

But look at this:

else {
			// look up most specific name match
			String bestNameMatch = null;
[...]

The code is saying something to me: "Please split me up, I am a method responsible for two things in one..."

Anyways, problem solved! - Thanks!
