Spring Retry with Transactional

Question

Is Spring Retry guaranteed to work with Spring\'s @Transactional annotation?

Specifically, I\'m trying to use @Retryable for optimistic loc

Answer 1

By default Spring Retry builds advice with the same LOWEST_PRECEDENCE order - take a look at the RetryConfiguration. However, there is a pretty simple way to override this order:

@Configuration
public class MyRetryConfiguration extends RetryConfiguration {
   @Override
   public int getOrder() {
      return Ordered.HIGHEST_PRECEDENCE;
   }
}

Make sure to omit the @EnableRetry annotation to avoid default RetryConfiguration be taken into account.
