Description

I tried writing a unit test to test OJB + Spring transactions.
To my suprise, transactions are not starting.

In fact, Im seeing some surprising results in mysql.log
(yes Im using InnoDB), note no transactions, and the forced autocommit

118 Query SET autocommit=1
117 Prepare [1] INSERT INTO FOLDER...
117 Execute [1] INSERT INTO FOLDER...
117 Query SET autocommit=1

It appears that OJB repeatedly sets autocommit=1
and
it never starts any transactions

Here is my unit test, which tests out a new 'fake' API addPage to the PageManager. This API is temporary to test transactional behavior:

public void testTx() throws Exception
{
Folder root = pageManager.newFolder("/");
pageManager.updateFolder(root);
Page[] pages = new Page[3];
pages[0] = pageManager.newPage("/test1.psml");
pages[1] = pageManager.newPage("/test2.psml");
pages[2] = pageManager.newPage("/test3.psml");
try

{ pageManager.addPages(pages); }

In addPages, I try to force a rollback:

public int addPages(Page[] pages)
throws JetspeedException

{ System.out.println("Adding first page"); this.updatePage(pages[0]); System.out.println("Adding second page"); this.updatePage(pages[1]); System.out.println("About to throw ex"); throw new JetspeedException("Its gonna blow captain!"); }

Finally, add pages is enabled for a Spring tx:

<prop key="addPages*">PROPAGATION_REQUIRED,-org.apache.jetspeed.exception.JetspeedException</prop>
