Checked and unchecked exceptions in EJBs

Published on

EJBs are good. But here's something lame:

  • Throwing an unchecked exception (ie. RuntimeException) causes the current transaction to be rolled back.
  • Throwing a checked exception (ie. a declared exception) does not roll back the current transaction.

    I never throw any exception from my code that does not require a roll back. It seems so awkward.
