Java Programming

Hi,

I have a current transaction going on.
In case I come across into an exception, I need to call another method which persists data. (I want it to be persisted no matter what!)

For that reason, I have called a new method from the exception marked as "@Transactional(propagation = Propagation.REQUIRES_NEW)".
But going through that method, flow gets hanged on a 'return query.getResultList();' statement.

I checked in the database at that point of time to find the concerned tables having a lock.

How do I get the persisting done and then continue with the original transaction?

Thanks in advance!
