Delaying sending of mail until transaction commits

Question

Does anyone have a good tutorial or some advice on how to implement one\'s own XAResource? I need Spring\'s MailSender to be transactional, so that the mail will only be sent on

Answer 1

You can use a TransactionSynchronizationManager.registerSynchronization (like gpeche mentioned) with a TransactionSynchronizationAdapter which has a variety of methods that are called at various stages of the current transaction. I think the most suitable method for the question is the afterCommit.

TransactionSynchronizationManager.registerSynchronization(new TransactionSynchronizationAdapter() {
    @Override
    public void afterCommit() {
        super.afterCommit();
        sendEmail();
    }
});
