JDBC使用SELECT FOR UPDATE锁定一行，不起作用

Question

I am having issues with MySQL's SELECT .. FOR UPDATE, here is the query I am trying to run:

SELECT * FROM tableName WHERE HostName='UnknownHost' 
        ORDER BY UpdateTimestamp asc limit 1 FOR UPDATE

After this, the concerned thread will do an UPDATE and change the HostName, which is then it should unlock the row.

I am running a multi-threaded java application, so 3 threads are running this SQL statement, but when thread 1 runs this, it doesn't lock its results from thread 2 & 3. Therefore threads 2 & 3 are getting the same results and they could update the same row.

Also each thread is on its own mysql connection.

I'm using Innodb, with transaction-isolation = READ-COMMITTED, and the Autocommit is off before executing the select for update

may I miss something? OR perhaps there is a better solution? Thanks a lot.

Code :

public BasicJDBCDemo()
{
    Le_Thread newThread1=new Le_Thread();
    Le_Thread newThread2=new Le_Thread();
    newThread1.start();
    newThread2.start();         
}

Thread :

class Le_Thread extends Thread  
{

    public void run() 
    {
    tring name = Thread.currentThread().getName();
        System.out.println( name+": Debut.");
    long oid=Util.doSelectLockTest(name);
    Util.doUpdateTest(oid,name);        
    }

}

Select :

public  static long doSelectLockTest(String threadName)
  {
    System.out.println("[OUTPUT FROM SELECT Lock ]...threadName="+threadName);
    PreparedStatement pst = null;
    ResultSet rs=null;
    Connection conn=null;
    long oid=0;
    try
    {
     String query = "SELECT * FROM table WHERE Host=? 
                               ORDER BY Timestamp asc limit 1 FOR UPDATE";


      conn=getNewConnection();
      pst = conn.prepareStatement(query);
      pst.setString(1, DbProperties.UnknownHost);
      System.out.println("pst="+threadName+"__"+pst);
      rs = pst.executeQuery();

      if (rs.first())
      {
        String s = rs.getString("HostName");
        oid = rs.getLong("OID");
        System.out.println("oid_oldest/host/threadName=="+oid+"/"+s+"/"+threadName);

      }   

    }
    catch (SQLException ex)
    {
      ex.printStackTrace();
    }
    finally
    {
        DBUtil.close(pst);
        DBUtil.close(rs);
        DBUtil.close(conn);
    }
    return oid;
  }

Please help.... :

Result :

Thread-1: Debut.
Thread-2: Debut.
[OUTPUT FROM SELECT Lock ]...threadName=Thread-1
New connection..
[OUTPUT FROM SELECT Lock ]...threadName=Thread-2
New connection..
pst=Thread-2: SELECT * FROM b2biCheckPoint  WHERE HostName='UnknownHost' ORDER BY UpdateTimestamp asc limit 1 FOR UPDATE
pst=Thread-1: SELECT * FROM b2biCheckPoint  WHERE HostName='UnknownHost' ORDER BY UpdateTimestamp asc limit 1 FOR UPDATE

oid_oldest/host/threadName==1/UnknownHost/Thread-1
[Performing UPDATE] ... oid = 1, thread=Thread-2
New connection..

Answer 1

You are super-confused, but at least things look better after your edits. There are multiple ways to do this, but the best way I've found is to actually use JDBC's ResultSet.update* methods:

First, you need to prepare your SELECT ... FOR UPDATE statement with the ResultSet.CONCUR_UPDATABLE argument, like this:

ps = conn.prepareStatement(query,
                           ResultSet.TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY,
                           ResultSet.CONCUR_UPDATABLE);

Then, you have to actually update the table using the ResultSet:

if(rs.next())
{
    rs.updateString(columnIndex, "new_hostname");
    rs.updateRow();
}

Third, you probably need to use a transaction, which I can see in your update. Hopefully, your DbUtil.close methods won't throw any exceptions, check for null, etc. Also, if your method gets any more complicated, you should have rollback logic in there, too.

You should not have to modify my.ini for any reason.

Answer 2

The connection you create that selects for update needs to be the same one that is used to do the update. Otherwise it's not part of the same transaction and it releases the lock, so your other threads start to execute it as well. So in your code You need to do this:

if (rs.first())
  {
    String s = rs.getString("HostName");
    oid = rs.getLong("OID");
    System.out.println("oid_oldest/host/threadName=="+oid+"/"+s+"/"+threadName);

  }   
Util.doUpdateTest(oid,name,conn);
conn.commit();

The Select statement can't result in a work result set which is caused by any group or order by operation that causes a sort. The select must keep an active position on the table up which any sorting will not provide.
