What is the default isolation level across nested transactions (instead of concurrent ones)?
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
Spring has 3 typical nested transactions propagations: REQUIRED
, NEW
and NESTED
. Isolation level types are always described in terms of concurrent transactions. But what about nested case? What is the default visibility from inner to outer and the other way around and how does setting isolation level on either affect?
Is there perhaps any rule of thumb like 'an outer transaction always sees changes from an inner unregarding isolation or propagation types' or 'an inner can only see outer's changes when its set as read_uncommited. Or its set as required, etc..?
EDIT: I am not talking of actual sql queries, but the persistence context. I mean, if I create a resource and read it in another part of a nested transaction model, will I see the change regardless of whether it was actually persisted? A good example is a transactional workflow that executes transactional methods that use repository.save, repository.find ... etc

But those are no isolation levels. Its rather what to do when there is/ there is no transaction at some particular point. Also I would say that since nested transaction are in scope of "parent" transaction, thus they share common scope. Never tested that.

I always have in mind a Transactional method calling another Transactional method. So theres always a context of transaction. I expect even when both transactions had read_commited by default there was special rules of visibility of the changes but I dont find it in the documntation

the default one almost at all databases with fewer exceptions,nested

There is no isolation between inner and outer transaction. The only reason why it exists is save points. That thing just let you to roll back the inner transaction without rolling back the outer transaction. Documentation says:
PROPAGATION_NESTED uses a single physical transaction with multiple
savepoints that it can roll back to. Such partial rollbacks let an
inner transaction scope trigger a rollback for its scope, with the
outer transaction being able to continue the physical transaction
despite some operations having been rolled back. This setting is
typically mapped onto JDBC savepoints, so it works only with JDBC
resource transactions. See Spring’sDataSourceTransactionManager
.
UPD:
You can also find:
Transaction isolation level. Only applicable to propagation settings
ofREQUIRED
orREQUIRES_NEW
.
