    public class TransactionAwareDataSourceProxy

extends DelegatingDataSource

Proxy for a target JDBC `DataSource`, adding awareness of Spring-managed transactions. Similar to a transactional JNDI DataSource as provided by a J2EE server.

Data access code that should remain unaware of Spring's data access support can work with this proxy to seamlessly participate in Spring-managed transactions. Note that the transaction manager, for example `DataSourceTransactionManager`, still needs to work with the underlying DataSource, not with this proxy.

Make sure that TransactionAwareDataSourceProxy is the outermost DataSource of a chain of DataSource proxies/adapters. TransactionAwareDataSourceProxy can delegate either directly to the target connection pool or to some intermediary proxy/adapter like `LazyConnectionDataSourceProxy` or `UserCredentialsDataSourceAdapter`.

Delegates to `DataSourceUtils` for automatically participating in thread-bound transactions, for example managed by `DataSourceTransactionManager`. `getConnection` calls and `close` calls on returned Connections will behave properly within a transaction, i.e. always operate on the transactional Connection. If not within a transaction, normal DataSource behavior applies.

This proxy allows data access code to work with the plain JDBC API and still participate in Spring-managed transactions, similar to JDBC code in a J2EE/JTA environment. However, if possible, use Spring's DataSourceUtils, JdbcTemplate or JDBC operation objects to get transaction participation even without a proxy for the target DataSource, avoiding the need to define such a proxy in the first place.

As a further effect, using a transaction-aware DataSource will apply remaining transaction timeouts to all created JDBC (Prepared/Callable)Statement. This means that all operations performed through standard JDBC will automatically participate in Spring-managed transaction timeouts.

NOTE: This DataSource proxy needs to return wrapped Connections (which implement the `ConnectionProxy` interface) in order to handle close calls properly. Therefore, the returned Connections cannot be cast to a native JDBC Connection type like OracleConnection or to a connection pool implementation type. Use a corresponding `NativeJdbcExtractor` to retrieve the native JDBC Connection.

Constructor Detail

### TransactionAwareDataSourceProxy

    public TransactionAwareDataSourceProxy()

  Create a new TransactionAwareDataSourceProxy.

  See Also:
    `DelegatingDataSource.setTargetDataSource(javax.sql.DataSource)`

### TransactionAwareDataSourceProxy

    public TransactionAwareDataSourceProxy(DataSource targetDataSource)

  Create a new TransactionAwareDataSourceProxy.

  Parameters:
    `targetDataSource` - the target DataSource

Method Detail

### setReobtainTransactionalConnections

    public void setReobtainTransactionalConnections(boolean reobtainTransactionalConnections)

  Specify whether to reobtain the target Connection for each operation performed within a transaction.

  The default is "false". Specify "true" to reobtain transactional Connections for every call on the Connection proxy; this is advisable on JBoss if you hold on to a Connection handle across transaction boundaries.

  The effect of this setting is similar to the "hibernate.connection.release_mode" value "after_statement".

### getConnection

    public Connection getConnection()
                             throws SQLException

  Delegates to DataSourceUtils for automatically participating in Spring-managed transactions. Throws the original SQLException, if any.

  The returned Connection handle implements the ConnectionProxy interface, allowing to retrieve the underlying target Connection.

  Specified by:
    `getConnection` in interface `DataSource`
  Overrides:
    `getConnection` in class `DelegatingDataSource`
  Returns:
    a transactional Connection if any, a new one else
  Throws:
    `SQLException`
  See Also:
    `DataSourceUtils.doGetConnection(javax.sql.DataSource)`, `ConnectionProxy.getTargetConnection()`

### getTransactionAwareConnectionProxy

    protected Connection getTransactionAwareConnectionProxy(DataSource targetDataSource)

  Wraps the given Connection with a proxy that delegates every method call to it but delegates `close()` calls to DataSourceUtils.

  Parameters:
    `targetDataSource` - DataSource that the Connection came from
  Returns:
    the wrapped Connection
  See Also:
    `Connection.close()`, `DataSourceUtils.doReleaseConnection(java.sql.Connection, javax.sql.DataSource)`

### shouldObtainFixedConnection

    protected boolean shouldObtainFixedConnection(DataSource targetDataSource)

  Determine whether to obtain a fixed target Connection for the proxy or to reobtain the target Connection for each operation.

  The default implementation returns `true` for all standard cases. This can be overridden through the `"reobtainTransactionalConnections"` flag, which enforces a non-fixed target Connection within an active transaction. Note that non-transactional access will always use a fixed Connection.

  Parameters:
    `targetDataSource` - the target DataSource
