JDBC and Spring connection pool

Question

I would like to use connection pool for a web app and mysql dbms. If I have want to force the connection to set autocommit to false for a particular method, is it possibile that this connection (with autocommitt off) is used by other requests?

Answer 1

is it possibile that this connection (with autocommitt off) is used by other requests?

You should always retrieve the Connection in the narrowest scope, this means, preferably as a local variable for your methods. Then, you can turn autocommit off by calling Connection#setAutocommit with false, and after using the connection object, close it. Note that this will only affect the current transaction and other requests won't be affected.
