How to ignore @Transactional in JdbcTemplate

Question

I'd like to create a library (jar) and use JdbcTemplate in it to simplify working with Database. But that library will be used in other Spring applications. And by default @Transactional annonations in application will affect the methods in library (JdbcTemplate in library will be aware of that outer Transaction). So I need to create JdbcTemplate so that it will ignore outer transactions. Is that possible?

Answer 1

So Application transaction propagation level shouldn't effect your library transaction management, is this my understanding correct?

If Yes, you may have a look at Propagation.NOT_SUPPORTED , ref

I believe you are going to design interface in your library which will expose public methods used by application, what if all interface method annotated with @Transactional(propagation = Propagation.NOT_SUPPORTED) ? wouldn't it solve your problem.
