Using for IDbConnection/IDbTransaction safe to use?

Question

While my assumption may seem to sound subjective, after some research, I found that it\'s not uncommon to find developers who favour a dummy Try/Catch instead of us

Answer 1

What you're seeing is developers coding according to the documentation (a "Good Thing"). The base class DbTransaction (used for most data providers' transaction implementations) states clearly in its documentation:

Dispose should rollback the transaction. However, the behavior of Dispose is provider specific, and should not replace calling Rollback.
