Message was sent to me privately... so i am posting it to the list ----- But for example, in the JPetStoreExample, in the AccountSqlMapDao, this is a method:
public void insertAccount(Account account) { update("insertAccount", account); update("insertProfile", account); update("insertSignon", account); } Aren't those different update statements better off in a transaction? And why no different calls from the Service layer? I'm just trying to understand the difference. >From: Brandon Goodin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: Brandon Goodin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: ibatis-user-java@incubator.apache.org >Subject: Re: transactions >Date: Tue, 24 May 2005 12:45:59 -0600 > >It is not neccessary to call transactions on only one statement. > >Transactions should be handled on the Service layer and make more >fine-grained calls to the DAO layer. > >Brandon > >On 5/24/05, Lieven De Keyzer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > At http://www.reumann.net/struts/ibatisLesson1/step6.do > > this is an example in a ibatis/struts tutorial > > > > public int update(String statementName, Object parameterObject) throws > > DaoException { > > int result = 0; > > try { > > sqlMap.startTransaction(); > > result = sqlMap.executeUpdate(statementName, parameterObject); > > sqlMap.commitTransaction(); > > } catch (SQLException e) { > > try { > > sqlMap.rollbackTransaction(); > > } catch (SQLException ex) { > > throw new DaoException(ex.fillInStackTrace()); > > } > > throw new DaoException(e.fillInStackTrace()); > > } > > return result; > > } > > > > Is it necessary to have a transaction started for just 1 statement > > execution? > > > > Also, what's the better way?
