Andrey Gura, Igniters, If to refer to our documentation [1], this is how we need to catch the deadlock detection exception:
catch (CacheException e) { if (e.getCause() instanceof IgniteCheckedException && e.getCause().getCause() instanceof TransactionDeadlockException) System.out.println(e.getCause().getCause().getMessage()); } However, this is no longer works in Ignite 2.0 because IgniteCheckedException has to be used instead of TransactionTimeoutException: catch (CacheException e) { if (e.getCause() instanceof IgniteCheckedException && e.getCause().getCause() instanceof TransactionDeadlockException) System.out.println(e.getCause().getCause().getMessage()); } See the example with the workaround: https://github.com/dmagda/ignite_transactions/blob/master/src/main/java/org/apache/ignite/examples/DeadlockDetectionExample.java Could we do on of the following: 1) Recover the previous behavior or 2) Throw TransactionDeadlockDetection right away as it’s done in .NET [3] [1] https://apacheignite.readme.io/docs/transactions#section-deadlock-detection [3] https://github.com/apache/ignite/blob/master/modules/platforms/dotnet/examples/Apache.Ignite.Examples/Datagrid/TransactionDeadlockDetectionExample.cs#L110
