[jira] Commented: (DERBY-1158) Allow use of Statements created in local transaction with default holdability to be used in global transactions.

    [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1158?page=comments#action_12372171 ] 

Daniel John Debrunner commented on DERBY-1158:
----------------------------------------------

JDBC 4.0 section 16.1.3.1 provides helpful information on addressing this: namely

if a data source cannot support a holdability level then it can select another and add a warning
(currently derby in a global transaction throws an error)

the application must check the holdability of its ResultSet and not rely on it matching the statement's or connection setting.

>
> A statement created or prepared in a local transaction using the default holdability settting can not be used in a global transaction.
> This is because the default holdability is HOLD_CURSORS_OVER_COMMIT and Derby does not support held cursors in global transactions.
> The change would be to allow those statements to be used in global transactions, returning ResultSets that are CLOSE_CURSORS_AT_COMMIT .
> This would allow such statements to be cached by application servers.
> JDBC 3.0 section 12.6 does allow holdability to be handled in an implementation specific way for global transactions.
> I believe this change is forward compatible if Derby ever does start supporting held cursors in global transactions (pretty unlikely) since
> the functionality displayed is a ub-set of the holdable functionality.
