I was wondering the best way the handle the following with EJB3. I have a EJB3 
Session Bean which acts as a facade for business activities. In a method, I 
want to check for existing records and report the error prior to attempting to 
persist an business object. I am looking for the existance of a database record 
(say user table with a username field). If the record exists, I return an error 
that already exists. When I try to find the user record, if not there a 
EJB3TransactionRollbackException is raised with the cause a NoResultException. 
I trap the exception but when I try to continue and persist the new record, I 
get a TransactionRequiredException.

User user = null;
// pseudocode
try {
   user = em.findById(username);
   // throw already exists exception
}
catch (RuntimeException) ex) {
   // test cause and try to continue... desired path
}

if (user == null) {
    User user = new User(username);
    em.persist(user);
}

It appears that once a exception is raised, you cannot continue. How can I 
perform the database check and still continue?
