Butterfly Persistence 5.2 Released - Connection, Transaction Scoping Support

Butterfly Persistence 5.2.0 contains support for easier scoping of connections and transactions. In other words, it has become easier to make sure that connections are opened and closed correctly, and that transactions are committed / rolled back correctly. This resembles the transaction management support found in Spring.

Butterfly Persistence is a simplistic, no-nonsense, Java persistence API. It is a thin layer ontop of JDBC, and you  always have access to the underlying JDBC connection. Butterfly Persistence contains simple JDBC templates that help you iterate ResultSet's etc., as well as Map reading, and Object reading / writing, including batch update support.

Butterfly Persistence is the continuation of Mr Persister, so these two API's are very similar. Butterfly Persistence / Mr Persister is being used in lots of production environments, on a variety of databases.

Computers have been my hobby since I was 12. Now I'm a freelance Java developer. Like many other developers I am working on various private projects. Some are open source components (Butterfly Components - DI container, web ui, persistence api, mock test api etc.). Some are the tutorials at tutorials.jenkov.com. Yet others are web projects. I hold a bachelor degree in computer science and a master degree in IT focused on P2P networks. Jakob is a DZone MVB and is not an employee of DZone and has posted 22 posts at DZone.
