What are the different methods of transaction managemen…
In Spring, there are several ways of managing transactions.
- Programmatic transaction management is the manual management of transactions through writing code, requiring the explicit opening, committing, or rolling back of transactions in the code, which can be cumbersome.
- Declarative transaction management separates transaction operations from business logic by using configuration, which can be done through XML or annotations. This simplifies coding.
- Transactional annotation is driving transaction management by declaring the boundaries of transactions. By adding the @Transactional annotation to a method, Spring automatically initiates a transaction for that method and commits or rolls back the transaction based on the circumstances after the method execution is completed.
- Configuring transaction management in XML: By setting up transaction managers and properties in an XML file, transactions can be managed with flexibility, but this method is relatively cumbersome.
- Transactional templates in Spring, like JdbcTemplate and HibernateTemplate, simplify transaction management code by handling transaction initiation, commit, and rollback automatically. Developers can focus solely on implementing their business logic.
