Autocommit

Syntax

AUTOCOMMIT { ON | OFF }

Description

Turns the connection’s auto-commit mode on or off. JDBC specifies that the default auto-commit mode is ON. Certain types of processing require that auto-commit mode be OFF. For information about auto-commit, see the Cloudscape Developer’s Guide.

If auto-commit mode is turned on when there is a transaction outstanding, that work is committed when the current transaction commits, not at the time auto-commit is turned on. Use Commit or Rollback before turning on auto-commit when there is a transaction outstanding, so that all prior work is completed before the return to auto-commit mode.

Example

 ij> autocommit off;
 ij> DROP TABLE menu;
 0 rows inserted/updated/deleted 
 ij> CREATE TABLE menu (course CHAR(10), item CHAR(20), price INT);
 0 rows inserted/updated/deleted
 ij> INSERT INTO menu VALUES ('entree', 'lamb chop', 14),
 ('dessert', 'creme brulee', 6), 
 ('appetizer', 'baby greens', 7);
 3 rows inserted/updated/deleted
 ij> commit;
 ij> autocommit on;
 ij>
