I use
JDBC against oracle with con.setAutoCommit(false).
My transaction perform several updates so concurrent execution of my transaction may cause
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00060: deadlock detected while waiting for resource.
Normally, I think I should do a rollback and retry the transaction that failed due to deadlock. My question is how my
java code identify the SQLException is caused by deadlock? Is it by parsing the
String returned from
exception.getMessage() to see if it contains ORA-00060? Would there be a better approach?
