Class TransactionAspectSupport

    java.lang.Object
      org.springframework.transaction.interceptor.TransactionAspectSupport

All Implemented Interfaces:
  Aware, BeanFactoryAware, InitializingBean

Direct Known Subclasses:
  TransactionInterceptor

    public abstract class TransactionAspectSupport

extends Object
implements BeanFactoryAware, InitializingBean

Base class for transactional aspects, such as the `TransactionInterceptor` or an AspectJ aspect.

This enables the underlying Spring transaction infrastructure to be used easily to implement an aspect for any aspect system.

Subclasses are responsible for calling methods in this class in the correct order.

If no transaction name has been specified in the `TransactionAttribute`, the exposed name will be the `fully-qualified class name + "." + method name` (by default).

Uses the Strategy design pattern. A `PlatformTransactionManager` implementation will perform the actual transaction management, and a `TransactionAttributeSource` is used for determining transaction definitions.

A transaction aspect is serializable if its `PlatformTransactionManager` and `TransactionAttributeSource` are serializable.

  1.1

Field Detail

### logger

    protected final Log logger

Constructor Detail

### TransactionAspectSupport

    public TransactionAspectSupport()

Method Detail

### currentTransactionInfo

    protected static TransactionAspectSupport.TransactionInfo currentTransactionInfo()
                                                                              throws NoTransactionException

  Subclasses can use this to return the current TransactionInfo. Only subclasses that cannot handle all operations in one method, such as an AspectJ aspect involving distinct before and after advice, need to use this mechanism to get at the current TransactionInfo. An around advice such as an AOP Alliance MethodInterceptor can hold a reference to the TransactionInfo throughout the aspect method.

  A TransactionInfo will be returned even if no transaction was created. The `TransactionInfo.hasTransaction()` method can be used to query this.

  To find out about specific transaction characteristics, consider using TransactionSynchronizationManager's `isSynchronizationActive()` and/or `isActualTransactionActive()` methods.

  Returns:
    TransactionInfo bound to this thread, or `null` if none
  Throws:
    `NoTransactionException`
  See Also:
    `TransactionAspectSupport.TransactionInfo.hasTransaction()`, `TransactionSynchronizationManager.isSynchronizationActive()`, `TransactionSynchronizationManager.isActualTransactionActive()`

### currentTransactionStatus

    public static TransactionStatus currentTransactionStatus()
                                                      throws NoTransactionException

  Return the transaction status of the current method invocation. Mainly intended for code that wants to set the current transaction rollback-only but not throw an application exception.

  Throws:
    `NoTransactionException` - if the transaction info cannot be found, because the method was invoked outside an AOP invocation context

### setTransactionManagerBeanName

    public void setTransactionManagerBeanName(String transactionManagerBeanName)

  Specify the name of the default transaction manager bean.

### getTransactionManagerBeanName

    protected final String getTransactionManagerBeanName()

  Return the name of the default transaction manager bean.

### setTransactionManager

    public void setTransactionManager(PlatformTransactionManager transactionManager)

  Specify the target transaction manager.

### getTransactionManager

    public PlatformTransactionManager getTransactionManager()

  Return the transaction manager, if specified.

### setTransactionAttributes

    public void setTransactionAttributes(Properties transactionAttributes)

  Set properties with method names as keys and transaction attribute descriptors (parsed via TransactionAttributeEditor) as values: e.g. key = "myMethod", value = "PROPAGATION_REQUIRED,readOnly".

  Note: Method names are always applied to the target class, no matter if defined in an interface or the class itself.

  Internally, a NameMatchTransactionAttributeSource will be created from the given properties.

  See Also:
    `setTransactionAttributeSource(org.springframework.transaction.interceptor.TransactionAttributeSource)`, `TransactionAttributeEditor`, `NameMatchTransactionAttributeSource`

### setTransactionAttributeSources

    public void setTransactionAttributeSources(TransactionAttributeSource[] transactionAttributeSources)

  Set multiple transaction attribute sources which are used to find transaction attributes. Will build a CompositeTransactionAttributeSource for the given sources.

  See Also:
    `CompositeTransactionAttributeSource`, `MethodMapTransactionAttributeSource`, `NameMatchTransactionAttributeSource`, `AnnotationTransactionAttributeSource`

### setTransactionAttributeSource

    public void setTransactionAttributeSource(TransactionAttributeSource transactionAttributeSource)

  Set the transaction attribute source which is used to find transaction attributes. If specifying a String property value, a PropertyEditor will create a MethodMapTransactionAttributeSource from the value.

  See Also:
    `TransactionAttributeSourceEditor`, `MethodMapTransactionAttributeSource`, `NameMatchTransactionAttributeSource`, `AnnotationTransactionAttributeSource`

### getTransactionAttributeSource

    public TransactionAttributeSource getTransactionAttributeSource()
