Exception handling was illustrated previously in

|
||
exception handling in a JE JE Collections API application in
|
||
more detail.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
There are two exceptions that must be treated specially:
|
||
<a class="ulink" href="../../java/com/sleepycat/je/RunRecoveryException.html" target="_top">RunRecoveryException</a>
|
||
|
||
|
||
and
|
||
<span>
|
||
<a class="ulink" href="../../java/com/sleepycat/je/LockConflictException.html" target="_top">LockConflictException</a>.
|
||
</span>
|
||
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
<a class="ulink" href="../../java/com/sleepycat/je/RunRecoveryException.html" target="_top">RunRecoveryException</a>
|
||
|
||
|
||
is thrown when the only solution is to shut down the application
|
||
and run recovery. All applications must catch this exception and
|
||
follow the recovery procedure.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
When
|
||
<a class="ulink" href="../../java/com/sleepycat/je/LockConflictException.html" target="_top">LockConflictException</a>
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
is thrown, the application should normally retry the operation. If
|
||
a deadlock continues to occur for some maximum number of retries,
|
||
the application should give up and try again later or take other
|
||
corrective actions. The JE JE Collections API provides two APIs
|
||
for transaction execution.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<div class="itemizedlist">
|
||
<ul type="disc">
|
||
<li>
|
||
<p>
|
||
When using the
|
||
<a class="ulink" href="../../java/com/sleepycat/collections/CurrentTransaction.html" target="_top">CurrentTransaction</a>
|
||
|
||
class directly, the application must catch
|
||
<a class="ulink" href="../../java/com/sleepycat/je/LockConflictException.html" target="_top">LockConflictException</a>
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
and follow the procedure described previously.
|
||
</p>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>
|
||
<p>
|
||
When using the
|
||
<a class="ulink" href="../../java/com/sleepycat/collections/TransactionRunner.html" target="_top">TransactionRunner</a>
|
||
|
||
class, retries are performed automatically and the application need
|
||
only handle the case where the maximum number of retries has been
|
||
reached. In that case,
|
||
<a class="ulink" href="../../java/com/sleepycat/collections/TransactionRunner.html#run(com.sleepycat.collections.TransactionWorker)" target="_top">TransactionRunner.run</a>
|
||
|
||
will throw
|
||
<span>
|
||
<a class="ulink" href="../../java/com/sleepycat/je/LockConflictException.html" target="_top">LockConflictException</a>.
|
||
</span>
|
||
|
||
</p>
|
||
</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
</div>
|
||
<p>
|
||
When using the
|
||
<a class="ulink" href="../../java/com/sleepycat/collections/TransactionRunner.html" target="_top">TransactionRunner</a>
|
||
|
||
class there are two other considerations.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<div class="itemizedlist">
|
||
<ul type="disc">
|
||
<li>
|
||
<p>
|
||
First, if the application-defined
|
||
<a class="ulink" href="../../java/com/sleepycat/collections/TransactionWorker.html#doWork()" target="_top">TransactionWorker.doWork</a>
|
||
|
||
method throws an exception the
|
||
transaction will automatically be aborted, and otherwise the
|
||
transaction will automatically be committed. Applications should
|
||
design their transaction processing with this in mind.
|
||
</p>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Second, please be aware that
|
||
<a class="ulink" href="../../java/com/sleepycat/collections/TransactionRunner.html#run(com.sleepycat.collections.TransactionWorker)" target="_top">TransactionRunner.run</a>
|
||
|
||
unwraps exceptions in order to discover whether a nested exception is a
|
||
<span>
|
||
<a class="ulink" href="../../java/com/sleepycat/je/LockConflictException.html" target="_top">LockConflictException</a>.
|
||
</span>
|
||
|
||
This is particularly important since all Berkeley DB exceptions
|
||
that occur while calling a stored collection method are wrapped
|
||
with a
|
||
<a class="ulink" href="../../java/com/sleepycat/util/RuntimeExceptionWrapper.html" target="_top">RuntimeExceptionWrapper</a>.
|
||
This wrapping is necessary because Berkeley DB exceptions are
|
||
checked exceptions, and the Java collections API does not allow
|
||
such exceptions to be thrown.
|
||
</p>
|
||
</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
</div>
|
||
<p>
|
||
When calling
|
||
<a class="ulink" href="../../java/com/sleepycat/collections/TransactionRunner.html#run(com.sleepycat.collections.TransactionWorker)" target="_top">TransactionRunner.run</a>,
|
||
the unwrapped (nested) exception will be unwrapped and thrown
|
||
automatically. If you are not using
|
||
<a class="ulink" href="../../java/com/sleepycat/collections/TransactionRunner.html" target="_top">TransactionRunner</a>
|
||
|
||
or if you are handling exceptions directly for some other reason,
|
||
use the
|
||
<a class="ulink" href="../../java/com/sleepycat/util/ExceptionUnwrapper.html#unwrap(java.lang.Exception)" target="_top">ExceptionUnwrapper.unwrap</a>
|
||
|
||
method to get the nested exception. For example, this can be used
|
||
to discover that an exception is a
|
||
<a class="ulink" href="../../java/com/sleepycat/je/RunRecoveryException.html" target="_top">RunRecoveryException</a>
|
||
|
||
|
||
as shown below.
