Does Java Connection.close rollback?

Question

Does Java Connection.close rollback into a finally block?.

I know .Net SqlConnection.close does it.

With this I could make try/finally blocks without catch..

Answer 1

In any database system I've worked with, there is no harm in doing a rollback right after the commit, so if you commit in the try block, and rollback in the finally, things get committed, whereas if an exception or early return causes the commit to be missed, the rollback will rollback the transaction. So the safe thing to do is

try {
    conn.setAutoCommit(false);
    ResultSet rs = executeQuery(conn, ...);
    ....
    executeNonQuery(conn, ...);
    ....

    conn.commit();
} finally {
   conn.rollback();
   conn.close();
}
