Programatic Transaction Management thru Transaction Template:

public class SimpleService implements Service {
// single TransactionTemplate shared amongst all methods in this instance
private final TransactionTemplate transactionTemplate;
// use constructor-injection to supply the PlatformTransactionManager
public SimpleService(PlatformTransactionManager transactionManager) {
Assert.notNull(transactionManager, "The transactionManager argument must not be
null.");
this.transactionTemplate = new TransactionTemplate(transactionManager);
}
public Object someServiceMethod() {
return transactionTemplate.execute(new TransactionCallback() {
// the code in this method executes in a transactional context
public Object doInTransaction(TransactionStatus status) {
updateOperation1();
return resultOfUpdateOperation2();
}
});
}

}
