[jira] [Created] (JENA-382) SPARQL Updates are not cancelable

Rob Vesse created JENA-382:
------------------------------

             Summary: SPARQL Updates are not cancelable
                 Key: JENA-382
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JENA-382
             Project: Apache Jena
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: ARQ
            Reporter: Rob Vesse
            Assignee: Rob Vesse


Currently queries are cancelable but updates are not.  Updates are just of capable of running awry especially since some of them can embed queries within them.  In general any update that generates a large amount of data can result in a long running update.

Therefore we should make it possible to cancel updates, my rough proposal for this is as follows:

1 - Provide a cancel() method on UpdateProcessor
2 - Provide a cancel() method on individual update commands so a processor can cancel() whichever is currently running

When updates are cancelled it must be treated as if updates failed and the transaction should be rolled back or marked as uncommittable as appropriate.

I will create a SVN branch to experiment on this feature.
