jpa transaction 回滚_在JPA + Spring中异常后回滚事务

I'm using Spring and JPA with HIbernate underneath. When a PersistenceException is thrown, I want to catch it and return the error message so that it is not propagated up to the caller.

@Transactional

public String save(Object bean) {

String error = null;

try {

EntityManager entityManager = getEntityManager();

for (int i = 0, n = entities.size(); i < n; i ++) {

entityManager.merge(entities.get(i));

}

}

catch (PersistenceException e) {

error = e.getMessage();

}

return error;

}

But I get an exception saying that javax.persistence.RollbackException: Transaction marked as rollbackOnly. I get that the transaction needs to be rolled back after an exception but how do I roll it back when I've catched the exception and do not want to re-throw it?

解决方案

It appears that there is no way to roll back a failed transaction managed by Spring ORM. The code shown in the question is a service class. Extracting its persistence routine to a separate DAO class and having the service class handle PersistenceExceptions did the trick.
