In this tutorial, we are going to explain how to configure and perform programmatic transaction management within the database using Spring Framework with Hibernate. The transaction management involves managing database operations such as -

• Deleting a customer account from database.
• Inserting a customer account record in the database.
• Depositing an amount in an account.
• Withdrawing an amount from an account.


To perform the transaction management programmatically, Spring Framework provide us a template class i.e. org.springframework.transaction.support.TransactionTemplate and to configure Spring with Hibernate we are going to use another template class i.e. org.springframework.orm.hibernate5.HibernateTemplate.

What Spring-Hibernate Programmatic Transaction Management does?

The Spring-Hibernate programmatic transaction management makes sure :

• The transaction operations should be atomic i.e. either of these operations should happen entirely or nothing at all.


• The transaction operations trying to access the shared data at the same time, should only be executed in isolation. i.e. one transaction at a time.


• In case of any exceptional or erroneous situation taking place(while any of the transaction operations were being performed), the effect of these operations should be rolled back to maintain the consistency of data and not leave any anomalous data in the database.

Note :

Before we proceed with the example of database transaction management, we would first need to configure Spring Framework to work with JDBC. To perform this, we will use a very important template class provided by Spring Framework which allows us to perform JDBC operations, named - JDBCTemplate.

Creating the Java class - Customer_Account

We are going to create a java class named Customer within the decodejava package and this class contains -

• An int property named id.
• A String property named name.
• A String property named address.
• A String property named age.

Besides this, we are also going to define a couple of getter and setter methods within this class to set the above mentioned properties of Customer class.

package decodejava;

public class Customer_Account 
{
	int id;
	String name;
	int amount;
	int age;
	
	
	public String getName() 
	{
		return name;
	}
	
	
	public void setName(String name) 
	{
		this.name = name;
	}
	
	
	public int getAmount() {
		return amount;
	}


	public void setAmount(int amount) {
		this.amount = amount;
	}


	public int getAge() 
	{
		return age;
	}
	
	
	public void setAge(int age) 
	{
		this.age = age;
	}
	
	
	public int getId() 
	{
		return id;
	}


	public void setId(int id) 
	{
		this.id = id;
	}

}

Class performing data access operations(DAO) using Spring

Next, we are going to add another Java class named CustomerDAO this class will contain separate methods to perform JDBC operations using methods of Spring Framework template class JDBCTemplate, to perform JDBC queries such as -

• Creating a table to contain records of customer accounts in the database,
• Getting all the records from a database table,
• Getting the total count of all the records from a database table, and,
• Getting all the account details from the database.

Besides the above mentioned database operations, this class will also contain separate methods to perform transaction operations such as -

• Performing a transaction operation i.e. adding a new customer account to the database.
• Performing a transaction operation i.e. deleting a customer account from the database.
• Performing a transaction operation i.e. depositing an amount in an account.
• Performing a transaction operation i.e. withdrawing an amount from an account.


This class is also going to contain two properties -
• HibernateTemplate property named hibernateTemplate, used to perform Hibernate operations using Spring.
• TransactionTemplate property named transactionTemplate, used to perform programmatic transaction management operations using Spring and JDBC.


These properties will be assigned a value by the Spring Container using their respective setter methods, when the CustomerDAO bean is created by it using the configuration xml file(to be created in the upcoming section).






package decodejava;

import java.util.List;

import org.springframework.orm.hibernate5.HibernateTemplate;
import org.springframework.transaction.TransactionStatus;
import org.springframework.transaction.support.TransactionCallback;
import org.springframework.transaction.support.TransactionTemplate;


public class CustomerDAO 
{
private HibernateTemplate hibernateTemplate;
private TransactionTemplate transactionTemplate;

	
	//Getter for TransactionTemplate
	public TransactionTemplate getTransactionTemplate() 
	{
		return transactionTemplate;
	}

	
	//Setter for TransactionTemplate
	public void setTransactionTemplate(TransactionTemplate transactionTemplate) 
	{
		this.transactionTemplate = transactionTemplate;
	}	
	
	
	//Getter for HibernateTemplate
	public HibernateTemplate getHibernateTemplate() {
		return hibernateTemplate;
	}

	
	//Setter for HibernateTemplate
	public void setHibernateTemplate(HibernateTemplate hibernateTemplate) 
	{
		this.hibernateTemplate = hibernateTemplate;
	}
	
	
	//Adding a customer
	public void addCustomer(Customer_Account c)
	{
		transactionTemplate.execute(new TransactionCallback<Object>() {
			//Anonymous class implementing TransactionCallback interface and implementing its doInTransaction() method
			
			@Override
			public Object doInTransaction(TransactionStatus ts) 
			{
				try
				{
					hibernateTemplate.save(c);			
				}
				catch(Exception e)
				{
					ts.isRollbackOnly(); //Transaction is rolled back on the arrival of an Exception
				}
				return null;
			}
		}); //Anonymous class ends.	
		
	}
	
	
	//Deleting a customer
	public void deleteCustomer(int id)
	{		
		transactionTemplate.execute(new TransactionCallback<Object>() {
			//Anonymous class implementing TransactionCallback interface and implementing its doInTransaction() method
			
			@Override
			public Object doInTransaction(TransactionStatus ts) 
			{
				try
				{
					Customer_Account c=hibernateTemplate.get(Customer_Account.class,id);
					hibernateTemplate.delete(c);		
				}
				catch(Exception e)
				{
					ts.isRollbackOnly(); //Transaction is rolled back on the arrival of an Exception
				}
				return null;
			}
		}); //Anonymous class ends.	
		
	}
	
	
	//Extracting a count of all the customers
	public int countCustomer()
	{
		List<Customer_Account> list =hibernateTemplate.loadAll(Customer_Account.class); 
		return list.size();
		
	}
	
	
	//Getting a List of all customers from database
	public List<Customer_Account> getAllCustomer()
	{		
		List<Customer_Account> list =hibernateTemplate.loadAll(Customer_Account.class);  
		return list;
	}
	
	
	
	//Transaction method i.e. depositing an amount from an account
	public void depositAmount(int id, int amount)
	{
		transactionTemplate.execute(new TransactionCallback<Object>() {
			//Anonymous class implementing TransactionCallback interface and implementing its doInTransaction() method
			
			@Override
			public Object doInTransaction(TransactionStatus ts) 
			{
				try
				{
					Customer_Account cust = getHibernateTemplate().get(Customer_Account.class, id);
					cust.setAmount(cust.getAmount() + amount);
					getHibernateTemplate().update(cust);			
				}
				catch(Exception e)
				{
					ts.isRollbackOnly(); //Transaction is rolled back on the arrival of an Exception
				}
				return null;
			}
		}); //Anonymous class ends.	
	}
	
	
	//Transaction method i.e. withdrawing an amount from an account
	public void withdrawAmount(int id, int amount)
	{
		transactionTemplate.execute(new TransactionCallback<Object>() {
			//Anonymous class implementing TransactionCallback interface and implementing its doInTransaction() method
			
			@Override
			public Object doInTransaction(TransactionStatus ts) 
			{
				try
				{
					Customer_Account cust = getHibernateTemplate().get(Customer_Account.class, id);
					cust.setAmount(cust.getAmount() - amount);
					getHibernateTemplate().update(cust);			
				}
				catch(Exception e)
				{
					ts.isRollbackOnly(); //Transaction is rolled back on the arrival of an Exception
				}
				return null;
			}
		}); //Anonymous class ends.		
						
	}
	
}



Within the transaction methods i.e. depositAmount() and withdrawAmountmethods, we have an anonymous class implementation of TransactionCallback interface and have implemented its doInTransaction() method, which constitutes the transaction operation. If an Exception is thrown during the execution of this transaction the method setRollbackOnly() is called, which rollbacks the transaction to maintain the data consistency and integrity in database.

Adding the Utility class that calls the Spring API


Next, we are going to create another class named - Utility, which is a simple java class.

Utility.java

package decodejava;



import java.util.List;

import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext;
import org.springframework.context.support.FileSystemXmlApplicationContext;

public class Utility {

	public static void main(String[] args) 
	{
		ApplicationContext context = new FileSystemXmlApplicationContext("classpath:config.beans.xml");
		CustomerDAO customerDAO = context.getBean("CustomerDAOBean",CustomerDAO.class);
		
		
		System.out.println("Creating a table in database");
		customerDAO.createTable();
		
		
		System.out.println("Adding the customers");
		customerDAO.addCustomer(1, "First Customer", 1000, 23);
		customerDAO.addCustomer(2, "Second Customer", 2000, 27);
		customerDAO.addCustomer(3, "Third Customer", 3000, 21);
		
		
		System.out.println("Getting all the customers from the database");
		List<Customer_Account> allCustomers = customerDAO.getAllCustomer();
		for(Customer_Account cust : allCustomers)
		{
			System.out.println("Customer ID : " + cust.getId());
			System.out.println("Customer Name : " + cust.getName());
			System.out.println("Customer Balance Amount : " + cust.getAmount());
			System.out.println("Customer Age : " + cust.getAge());
			
		}
	
		
		System.out.println("Getting the total count of all the Customers");
		System.out.println("Total Customers : " + customerDAO.countCustomer());
		
		
		System.out.println("Deleting a Customer with id = 2");
		customerDAO.deleteCustomer(2);
		
		System.out.println("Getting the new total count of all the Customers after deleting a customer");
		System.out.println("Total Customers : " + customerDAO.countCustomer());
	
		
		System.out.println("A customer with id = 1, is depositing an amount of 20000");
		customerDAO.depositAmount(1, 20000);
		
		System.out.println("A customer with id = 3, is withdrawing an amount of 500");
		customerDAO.withdrawAmount(3, 500);
		
		
		
		System.out.println("Getting all the customers from the database and their updated amount :");
		List<Customer_Account> allCustomers2 = customerDAO.getAllCustomer();
		for(Customer_Account cust : allCustomers2)
		{
			System.out.println("Customer ID : " + cust.getId());
			System.out.println("Customer Name : " + cust.getName());
			System.out.println("Customer Balance Amount : " + cust.getAmount());
			System.out.println("Customer Age : " + cust.getAge());
			                                                           
		}
		
	}

}



The Utility class uses the ApplicationContext container(an interface) of Spring Framework by creating its instance using its implemented class FileSystemXmlApplicationContext, which loads the configuration xml file - config.beans.xml and does the following -


• Reads XML to create the CustomerDAO bean named CustomerDAOBean and initiate its property jdbcTemplate with a value by calling its setter methods i.e. setJDBCTemplate().



• Using CustomerDAOBean calls the method of CustomerDAO class i.e. createTable(), to create a table in database.



• Using CustomerDAOBean calls the method of CustomerDAO class i.e. addCustomer(int id, string name, int amount, int age), to add a customer to the database table.



• Using CustomerDAOBean calls the method of CustomerDAO class i.e. getAllCustomer(), to get a List of all the customer stored in the database table.



• Using CustomerDAOBean calls the method of CustomerDAO class i.e. countCustomer(), to get a total count of all the customer records stored in the database.



• Using CustomerDAOBean calls the method of CustomerDAO class i.e. deleteCustomer(int id), to delete a customer record by using its id value.



• Using CustomerDAOBean calls the transaction method of CustomerDAO class i.e. depositAmount(int id), to deposit an amount into an account using its id value.




• Using CustomerDAOBean calls the transaction method of CustomerDAO class i.e. withdrawAmount(int id), to withdraw an amount from an account using its id value.










Adding a configuration file


Next, we are going to add a configuration file to our project. This configuration document is an Extensible Markup Language(XML) file, ending with .xml extension and we are going to name file as config.beans.xml.

In this file, we have configured a CustomerDAO bean with a unique id and its two properties -
• A property named hibernateTemplate, which refers to a bean of HibernateTemplate type.
• A property named transactionTemplate, which refers to bean of TransactionTemplate type.

These properties will be assigned a value by the Spring Container using their respective setter methods, when the CustomerDAO bean is created by it using the configuration xml file.


config.beans.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
       xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

       ">
       
         
<bean id="CustomerDAOBean" class="decodejava.CustomerDAO">
<property name="hibernateTemplate" ref="HibernateTemplateBean"></property>
<property name="transactionTemplate" ref="transactionTemplateBean"></property>

<property name="checkWriteOperations" value="false"/>
</bean>

<bean id="transactionTemplateBean" class="org.springframework.transaction.support.TransactionTemplate">
<property name="transactionManager" ref="txnManagerBean"></property>
</bean>


<bean id="txnManagerBean" class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate5.HibernateTransactionManager">
<property name="sessionFactory" ref="SessionFactoryBean"></property>
</bean>



<bean id="SessionFactoryBean" class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate5.LocalSessionFactoryBean">
<property name="mappingResources" value="customer.hbm.xml"></property>
<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSourceBean"></property>
<property name="hibernateProperties">
	<value>
	hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto=create
	hibernate.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.Oracle10gDialect
	hibernate.show_sql=true
	hibernate.default_schema=system
	</value>
</property>
</bean>




<bean id="dataSourceBean" class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerDataSource">
<property name="url" value="jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:XE"></property>
<property name="driverClassName" value="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"></property>
<property name="username" value="system"></property>
<property name="password" value="promila21"></property>
</bean>

</beans>




This mapping document has a parent <beans> tag as the root element and its individual child elements, each with a <bean> tag, containing all the attributes such as -


• The id attribute within the <bean> element defines a unique id associated with the bean.
• The class attribute within the <bean> element defines the name of the class of this bean.



The property child element in <bean> tag refers to a property within the CustomerDAO class.
• The name child attribute refers to the name of a property in the CustomerDAO class i.e. jdbcTemplate.
• The value child attribute refers to the value assigned to be a specific property
• The ref child attribute refers to the reference name of a property which is matched with the id of another bean declared in this configuration file within another <bean> tag.
  
  For example - ref="hibernateTemplateBean" refers to a HibernateTemplate bean with id having a similar value "hibernateTemplateBean", declared in this configuration file, to initiate the HibernateTemplate object. This HibernateTemplate bean has a sessionFactory property, which refers to a SessionFactoryBean bean of type org.springframework.orm.hibernate5.LocalSessionFactoryBean.
  
  
  
  This bean - SessionFactoryBean has a few important properties -
  
  
• The dataSource property refers to a data source implementation class declared in this configuration file.


• The mappingResources property specifies the mapping resource xml file i.e. customer_account.hbm.xml to map the Customer_Account class to a database table.


• The hibernateProperties property specifies the important properties associated with Hibernate Framework.



This HibernateTemplate bean also has a datasource property which refers to a data source implementation class provided by Spring Framework - DriverManagerDataSource, used to access the configuration database details specified in xml file, such as -
• The Connection URL
• The driverClassName
• The username
• The password
to connect to the database and perform JDBC operations using Spring Framework.







Adding JARs



• We are going to add some JARs files to our Java project. These JARs are required in order to successfully execute this Spring project.
  
  All these JARs are included in the folder named libs(within our Spring installation folder). So, we need to add all the JARs in the libs folder to our build path of our Java project.
  
  All these JARs are included in the folder named required(within our Hibernate installation folder). So, we need to add all the JARs in the required to our build path of our Java project.
  
  
• Finally, we are going to add one more JAR file. This is a specific JDBC JAR file(ojdbc14.jar) required by Spring to connect to our database(Oracle Express Edition 10g) and perform database operations.


Note : Those who don't know how to add JARs to the build path of your Java project in Eclipse IDE, please refer to our section Adding JARs to your Spring project in Eclipse.








Directory Structure of Project






The picture above depicts how and where to arrange classes and interfaces comprising this Spring Project, in a specific directory structure.

Project Folder - SpringWithHibernateProgrammaticTransaction is the name of our Project and it is a top-level directory.


This project folder contains a package of our project i.e. decodejava containing three classes -
• A POJO class named Customer_Account.java.
• Another POJO class named CustomerDAO.java class.
• A class that calls the Spring Framework into action i.e. Utility.java.



• Besides this, the project folder also contains a configuration file i.e. config.beans.xml, used to configure the beans of classes in the project.
  
  
• The project folder also contains all the needed Spring JARs present in the libs folder of Spring Framework installation.







Execution


Finally, after executing Utility class, you will get the following output within the Console window. This output shown below, shows how the Utility class has used the ApplicationContext container of Spring Framework to load the configuration xml file - config.beans.xml, access the beans specified in it, instantiate the CustomerDAO class and performs JDBC operations by calling the methods of CustomerDAO class.
