CommitBehavior attribute

  • Artículo

Version: Available or changed with runtime version 6.0.

Specifies the behavior of a commit call inside the method scope.

Applies to

  • Method

Syntax

[CommitBehavior(Behavior: CommitBehavior)]

Arguments

Behavior
 Type: CommitBehavior
Specifies if a commit must be ignored or throw an error. The options are: Ignored or Error.

Remarks

  • It's only possible to assign a more restrictive commit behavior. That is, if CommitBehavior::Ignore is attempted on a method scope, but the method calling the current method, for example, the parent method is actually running with CommitBehavior::Error, then the current method will continue running with CommitBehavior::Error, even though the Ignore attribute was specified.

  • The CommitBehavior only lasts for the method scope. Regardless of whether the method finishes successfully or if an error causes the method to exit prematurely, the CommitBehavior reverts to the standard behavior, where commit statements will commit to the database.

  • The CommitBehavior only applies to explicit commits, not implicit commits done as part of Codeunit.Run.

Example - local method

The example shown below illustrates how the attribute is used on a local method; it can also be applied on a global method.

codeunit 50100 MyCodeunit
{
    trigger OnRun()
    var
    begin
        FunctionAllowCommit();
    end;

    local procedure FunctionAllowCommit()
    begin
        FunctionIgnoreCommit();
        commit; // This is valid, and commit call will be executed.
    end;

    [CommitBehavior(CommitBehavior::Ignore)]
    local procedure FunctionIgnoreCommit()
    begin
        TryFunctionErrorCommit();
        commit; // This call will be silently ignored.
    end;

    [CommitBehavior(CommitBehavior::Error)]
    [TryFunction]
    local procedure TryFunctionErrorCommit()
    begin
        commit; // This will throw an error. No further code will be executed and the user will see a dialog to contact the system administrator.
    end;

    var
        myInt: Integer;
}

Example - event subscriber

This example illustrates how you can protect your code from commits happening in event subscriber code; typically written by a third party.

codeunit 50102 MyPublishingCodeunit
{
    // by stating CommitBehavior::Ignore here, any subscribers attempt to commit will be ignored
    [CommitBehavior(CommitBehavior::Ignore)]
    [IntegrationEvent(true, false)]
    procedure OnSomethingChangedEvent()
    begin
        // this part of ImportantAtomicOperation is extensible
    end;

    procedure Validate() result: Boolean
    begin
        // validation code 
    end;

    procedure DoImportantAtomicOperation()
    begin
        // do work
        OnSomethingChangedEvent();
        // do more work

        if Validate() then Commit() else Error('Validation failed');
    end;

}

codeunit 50103 MySubscribingCodeunit
{
    [EventSubscriber(ObjectType::Codeunit, Codeunit::MyPublishingCodeunit, 'OnSomethingChangedEvent', '', true, true)]
    local procedure SubcribeToOnAddressLineChangedEvent(sender: Codeunit MyPublishingCodeunit)
    begin
        // subscriber code
        Commit();
    end;
