Exception handling was illustrated previously in

|
||||
exception handling in a DB Java Collections API application in
|
||||
more detail.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
There are two exceptions that must be treated specially:
|
||||
|
||||
<a href="../../java/com/sleepycat/db/RunRecoveryException.html" target="_top">RunRecoveryException</a>
|
||||
|
||||
and
|
||||
|
||||
<span>
|
||||
<a href="../../java/com/sleepycat/db/DeadlockException.html" target="_top">DeadlockException</a>.
|
||||
</span>
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
|
||||
<a href="../../java/com/sleepycat/db/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 href="../../java/com/sleepycat/db/DeadlockException.html" target="_top">DeadlockException</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 DB Java Collections API provides two APIs
|
||||
for transaction execution.
|
||||

|
||||
<div class="itemizedlist">
|

<ul type="disc">

<li>
|

<p>
|
||||
When using the
|
||||
<a href="../../java/com/sleepycat/collections/CurrentTransaction.html" target="_top">CurrentTransaction</a>
|
||||
|
||||
class directly, the application must catch
|
||||
|
||||
<a href="../../java/com/sleepycat/db/DeadlockException.html" target="_top">DeadlockException</a>
|
||||
|
||||
and follow the procedure described previously.

|

</li>

|

When using the
|
||||
<a 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 href="../../java/com/sleepycat/collections/TransactionRunner.html#run(com.sleepycat.collections.TransactionWorker)" target="_top">TransactionRunner.run</a>
|
||||
|
||||
will throw

||||
|
||||
<span>
|

<a href="../../java/com/sleepycat/db/DeadlockException.html" target="_top">DeadlockException</a>.
|

</p>
|
||||
</li>
|

</ul>
|

|

<p>
|
||||
When using the
|
||||
<a 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 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 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 href="../../java/com/sleepycat/db/DeadlockException.html" target="_top">DeadlockException</a>.
|
||||
</span>
|
||||
This is particularly important since all Berkeley DB exceptions
|
||||
that occur while calling a stored collection method are wrapped
|
||||
with a
|
||||
<a 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 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 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 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 href="../../java/com/sleepycat/db/RunRecoveryException.html" target="_top">RunRecoveryException</a>
|
||||
|
||||
as shown below.
