In our java project we are using ORM with hibernate and spring. I had problems in deleting persistent objects. For example this sample method gets entities by ids and then delete them:
@Transactional
public void remove(List<Long> ids) {
SearchTemplate template = new SearchTemplate();
template.addParameter("milestoneId",ids);
List <InvoiceQueue> items = this.findByCriteria(template);
...
this.delete(items);
}
Method executes Ok without any exception but doesn't actually delete the items from the DB.
Adding the following annotation to the method definition @Transactional(propagation = Propagation.REQUIRES_NEW)
solves the problem.
Can anyone explain why it doesn't work with the default propagation type PROPAGATION_REQUIRED.
Thanks in advance.
Environment details :
hibernate.version 3.5.5-Final, spring.version 3.0.5.RELEASE
