How to set autocommit to false in spring jdbc template

Question

Currently I\'m setting autocommit to false in spring through adding a property to a datasource bean id like below :

You will have to do for each statement that the jdbcTemplate executes. Because for each jdbcTemplate.execute() etc it gets a new connection from the Datasource's connection pool. So you will have to set it for the connection that the connection the jdbcTemplate uses for that query. So you will have to do something like

 jdbcTemplate.execute("(){

        @Override
        public  Integer doInPreparedStatement(PreparedStatement stmt) throws SQLException, DataAccessException 
        {
            Connection cxn = stmt.getConnection();
            // set autocommit for that cxn object to false
            cxn.setAutoCommit(false);
            // set parameters etc in the stmt
            ....
            ....
            cxn.commit();
            // restore autocommit to true for that cxn object. because if the same object is obtained from the CxnPool later, autocommit will be false
            cxn.setAutoCommit(true);
            return 0;

        }
    });

Hope this helps
