JPA Persist() Example

persis() method example in JPA
        EntityManager entityManager = JPAUtils.getEntityManagerFactory().createEntityManager();
        EntityTransaction transaction = null;
        try {

            transaction = entityManager.getTransaction();
            transaction.begin();


            Player player = new Player();
            player.setFirstName("Sachin");
            player.setLastName("Tendulkar");
            player.setGame("Cricket");
            player.setAge(47l);
            player.setSalaryIncome(400000L);
            entityManager.persist(player);

            Player player1 = new Player();
            player1.setFirstName("Tom");
            player1.setLastName("Brady");
            player1.setGame("Football");
            player1.setAge(43l);
            player1.setSalaryIncome(400000L);
            entityManager.persist(player1);

            transaction.commit();


        } catch (Exception ex) {
            if (transaction != null) {
                transaction.rollback();
            }
            ex.printStackTrace();
        } finally {
            entityManager.close();
        }
    }

Here EntityManager is created using createEntityManager() of EntityManagerFactory class where as Transaction is created getTransaction() of EntityManager class.

We created two entity objects for persisting using EntityManager. After committing the transaction we closed the EntityManager.
