Perhaps an easy one...

I'd like to drop a Savepoint to be committed or rolled-back,  
depending upon the results of a function call, i.e.:

int something()
{
   Database db = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:default:connection");
   Savepoint savePoint = db.setSavepoint();

   int result;

   try
   {
     result = trySomethingWithSQL(db);
   }
   catch (Exception e)
   {
     db.rollback(savePoint);
     return -1;
   }

   db.commit(savePoint);
   return result;
};

I see that, although setSavepoint and releaseSavepoint are available,  
commit and rollback are not.  What is the point of set/ 
releaseSavepoint if I cannot commit or rollback from a Savepoint?  Is  
there any other way to accomplish the above?

Thanks in advance,

Jeff Lyon
