For some reason, the comment I made in JIRA for Derby-421 didn't show up on the list. I have copied it here for reference
 
"
As for question 2), regarding the existing field isolationLevelExplicitlySet, I see that it gets set to true when the isolation level is set using JDBC or SQL. But I don't see it getting reset to false. Maybe someone who has worked on this flag can share the purpose of this flag. I noticed that this flag gets used later in GenericStatement.prepMinion to set the isolation level of the CompilerContext.

What I need is some kind of flag which will get set to true if isolation has been set using JDBC or SQL in a given
transaction. When entering/exiting a global transaction later, I want to see if the flag is set to true and if so, set the isolation state in BrokeredConnection to that of EmbedConnection (since the isolation state in BrokeredConnection can be incorrect if SQL was used to set the isolation level). After this state update in BrokeredConnection, I want to reset the flag back to false. I don't think I can use isolationLevelExplicitlySet for this functionality but more information will clarify this more.

thanks,
Mamta

Daniel John Debrunner commented on DERBY-421:
---------------------------------------------

A few questions on the patch:

1) In BrokeredConnection.setState() the method getIsolationUptoDate() is called. This new method updates the BrokeredConnection state according to the state of the underlying connection, but the purpose and description of the setState() method is the opposite. Thus this method call looks out pf place. Additional comments indicating why it is here would be useful.

2) The new field isolationLevelSetUsingSQLorJDBC in GenericLanguageConnectionContext seems to have similar functionality to the existing field isolationLevelExplicitlySet. Are two fields really required? Usually multiple similar state fields is a recipe for bugs.

3)  The number of new methods to acheive this functionality seems high, I wonder if there is a simpler approach, it would be easier to tell if you could expand on your comment  'And this flag is later used to keep the isolation level state information uptodate in BrokeredConnection.' Could you comment on exactly when this flag is used to reset the state?
