(Quick Reference)
withTransaction
Purpose
Allows programmatic transactions using Spring's Transaction abstraction.
Examples
Account.withTransaction { status -> def source = Account.get(params.from)
def dest = Account.get(params.to) int amount = params.amount.toInteger()
if (source.active) {
source.balance -= amount if (dest.active) {
dest.amount += amount
}
else {
status.setRollbackOnly()
}
}
}
Named arguments may optionally be passed as an argument to control attributes of the transaction.
// the keys in the Map must correspond to properties
// of org.springframework.transaction.support.DefaultTransactionDefinitionAccount.withTransaction([propagationBehavior: TransactionDefinition.PROPAGATION_REQUIRES_NEW,
isolationLevel: TransactionDefinition.ISOLATION_REPEATABLE_READ]) {
// …
}
Description
The
withTransaction
method accepts a Closure with a
TransactionStatus argument. The
