## org.springframework.jdbc.core
Interface ConnectionCallback

    public interface ConnectionCallback

Generic callback interface for code that operates on a JDBC Connection. Allows to execute any number of operations on a single Connection, using any type and number of Statements.

This is particularly useful for delegating to existing data access code that expects a Connection to work on and throws SQLException. For newly written code, it is strongly recommended to use JdbcTemplate's more specific operations, for example a `query` or `update` variant.

  1.1.3

Method Summary
`Object` `doInConnection(Connection con)` Gets called by `JdbcTemplate.execute` with an active JDBC Connection.

Method Detail

### doInConnection

    Object doInConnection(Connection con)
                          throws SQLException,
                                 DataAccessException

  Gets called by `JdbcTemplate.execute` with an active JDBC Connection. Does not need to care about activating or closing the Connection, or handling transactions.

  If called without a thread-bound JDBC transaction (initiated by DataSourceTransactionManager), the code will simply get executed on the JDBC connection with its transactional semantics. If JdbcTemplate is configured to use a JTA-aware DataSource, the JDBC Connection and thus the callback code will be transactional if a JTA transaction is active.

  Allows for returning a result object created within the callback, i.e. a domain object or a collection of domain objects. Note that there's special support for single step actions: see `JdbcTemplate.queryForObject` etc. A thrown RuntimeException is treated as application exception: it gets propagated to the caller of the template.

  Parameters:
    `con` - active JDBC Connection
  Returns:
    a result object, or `null` if none
  Throws:
    `SQLException` - if thrown by a JDBC method, to be auto-converted to a DataAccessException by a SQLExceptionTranslator
    `DataAccessException` - in case of custom exceptions
