Summary of Java transaction processing
first, what is a Java transactionThe general idea is that transactions are only relevant to the database. Transactions must be subject to the ACID principles established by ISO/IEC. Acid is an abbreviation for atomicity (atomicity), consistency (consistency), isolation (isolation), and persistence (durability). The atomicity of a transaction indicates that any failure during the execution of the transaction will invalidate any modifications made by the firm. Consistency means that when a transaction fails, all data affected by the transaction should revert to the state it was before the transaction was executed. Isolation represents the modification of data during the execution of a transaction and is not visible to other transactions before the transaction commits. Persistence indicates that the submitted data should be in the correct state when the transaction execution fails. In layman's terms, a transaction is a set of atomic operating units that, from a database perspective, is a set of SQL instructions, either executed successfully or, if, for some reason, one of the instructions executes with an error, all previously executed instructions are revoked. The simpler answer is: either all succeeds or the revocation is not executed. Since the concept of transactions comes from the database, what is a Java transaction? What is the connection between them? In fact, a Java application, if you want to manipulate the database, is implemented through JDBC. Additions, modifications, and deletions are implemented indirectly through the corresponding methods, and the control of transactions is transferred to the Java program code accordingly. Therefore, the transactions of database operations are customarily referred to as Java transactions.
Second, why the need for businessTransactions are made to address data security operations, and transaction control is essentially a secure access to control data. To give a simple example: for example, bank transfer business, account A to the account of 1000 yuan to the B account, a balance of the first account to subtract 1000 yuan, then the B account to increase 1000 yuan. If there is a problem in the intermediary network, a account minus 1000 yuan has ended, b because the network outage and operation failed, then the entire business failure, must be control, require a account transfer business revocation. This can guarantee the correctness of the business, the completion of this operation will require a transaction, the A-account capital reduction and the B account capital increase into a transaction, or all of the successful execution, or the operation of all the revocation, so that the security of the data.
iii. Types of Java transactionsThere are three types of Java transactions: JDBC Transaction, JTA (Java Transaction API) transaction, container transaction.1. JDBC TransactionThe JDBC transaction is controlled with the Connection object. The JDBC Connection Interface (java.sql.Connection) provides two transaction modes: Autocommit and Manual commit. Java.sql.Connection provides the following methods for controlling transactions: public void Setautocommit (Boolean) public boolean getautocommit () public void commit () public void rollback () When using JDBC transaction demarcation, you can combine multiple SQL statements into a single transaction. One drawback of JDBC transactions is that the scope of a transaction is limited to a single database connection. A JDBC transaction cannot span multiple databases.2. JTA (Java Transaction API) transactionJTA is a high-level, unrelated, protocol-agnostic API that enables applications and application servers to access transactions using JTA. JTA allows applications to perform distributed transactions-access and update data on two or more network computer resources, which can be distributed across multiple databases. The JTA support of the JDBC driver greatly enhances the data access capability. If you plan to define transactions with JTA, you need a JDBC driver that implements the Javax.sql.XADataSource, Javax.sql.XAConnection, and Javax.sql.XAResource interfaces. A driver that implements these interfaces will be able to participate in the JTA transaction. A Xadatasource object is a factory of a Xaconnection object. Xaconnection S is a JDBC connection that participates in JTA transactions. You will need to set up Xadatasource with the Application Server's administration tool. The relevant guidance can be learned from the application server and the documentation for the JDBC driver. The Java EE application queries the data source with JNDI. Once the application finds the data source object, it calls Javax.sql.DataSource.getConnection () to get a connection to the database. XA connections are not the same as non-XA connections. Be sure to remember that the XA connection participates in the JTA transaction. This means that the XA connection does not support the auto-commit feature of JDBC. Also, the application must not call Java.sql.Connection.commit () or Java.sql.Connection.rollback () on the XA connection. Instead, applications should use Usertransaction.begin (), Usertransaction.commit (), and Sertransaction.rollback ().3. Container ServiceContainer transactions are mainly provided by the Java EE Application Server, and the container transactions are mostly based on JTA, which is a jndi-based, fairly complex API implementation. Relative coding implements JTA transaction management, and we can accomplish the same function through the container transaction management mechanism (CMT) provided by the EJB container, which is provided by the Java EE Application Server. This allows us to simply specify which method to join the transaction, and once specified, the container will be responsible for the transaction management task. This is our way of doing civil work, because in this way we can exclude the transaction code from the logic code, and all the difficulties to the Java EE container to solve. Another benefit of using EJB CMT is that programmers do not have to care about the coding of the JTA API, but in theory we have to use EJBS.
four or three different transaction differences1. The limitations of JDBC transaction control are within a database connection, but they are simple to use. 2. JTA transactions are powerful, and transactions can span multiple databases or multiple DAO, and are more complex to use. 3, container transaction, mainly refers to the Java EE Application Server provides transaction management, limited to the use of EJB applications.
v. SummaryTransaction control is an indispensable part of building the Java EE application, and it is very important for the whole application to choose what kind of transaction to apply. In general, the JDBC transaction can be selected in the case of a single JDBC connection connection, with the option to use JTA transactions across multiple connections or databases, and if EJB is used, consider using EJB container transactions.
