Transactional annotation, corresponding to the
 TransactionDefinition interface.| Enum Constant and Description |

| MANDATORYSupport a current transaction, throw an exception if none exists. | 
| NESTEDExecute within a nested transaction if a current transaction exists,
 behave like  REQUIREDotherwise. |

| NOT_SUPPORTEDExecute non-transactionally, suspend the current transaction if one exists. | 
| REQUIREDSupport a current transaction, create a new one if none exists. | 
| REQUIRES_NEWCreate a new transaction, and suspend the current transaction if one exists. |

the order they are declared. | 
public static final Propagation REQUIRED
This is the default setting of a transaction annotation.
public static final Propagation SUPPORTS
Note: For transaction managers with transaction synchronization,
 SUPPORTS is slightly different from no transaction at all,
 as it defines a transaction scope that synchronization will apply for.
 As a consequence, the same resources (JDBC Connection, Hibernate Session, etc)
 will be shared for the entire specified scope. Note that this depends on
 the actual synchronization configuration of the transaction manager.
public static final Propagation MANDATORY
public static final Propagation REQUIRES_NEW
NOTE: Actual transaction suspension will not work out-of-the-box
 on all transaction managers. This in particular applies to
 JtaTransactionManager,
 which requires the javax.transaction.TransactionManager to be
 made available to it (which is server-specific in standard Java EE).
public static final Propagation NOT_SUPPORTED
NOTE: Actual transaction suspension will not work out-of-the-box
 on all transaction managers. This in particular applies to
 JtaTransactionManager,
 which requires the javax.transaction.TransactionManager to be
 made available to it (which is server-specific in standard Java EE).
public static final Propagation NEVER
public static final Propagation NESTED
REQUIRED otherwise. There is no analogous feature in EJB.
 Note: Actual creation of a nested transaction will only work on specific transaction managers. Out of the box, this only applies to the JDBC DataSourceTransactionManager. Some JTA providers might support nested transactions as well.
