DataSourceUtils.prepareConnectionForTransaction can throw SQLException when calls con.setTransactionIsolation(definition.getIsolationLevel()) [SPR-7184] #11843
Description
Alberto Mozzone opened SPR-7184 and commented
The call to the method can throw an SQLException if the JDBC driver doesn't support the change of transaction isolation after the connection is in use. This is the case with Postgresql. The problem is that the method is called even if the transaction isolation of the connection is the same of the configured transaction isolation (in the transaction definition). In this case, the JDBC driver (Postgresql) bombs. I suggest to call the setter only when the configured transaction isolation is different than the connection one. Example:
...
// Apply specific isolation level, if any.
Integer previousIsolationLevel = null;
if (definition != null && definition.getIsolationLevel() != TransactionDefinition.ISOLATION_DEFAULT) {
if (logger.isDebugEnabled()) {
logger.debug("Changing isolation level of JDBC Connection [" + con + "] to " +
definition.getIsolationLevel());
}
previousIsolationLevel = new Integer(con.getTransactionIsolation());
con.setTransactionIsolation(definition.getIsolationLevel());
}
...
Affects: 3.0.2
