Transaction with two sql inserts

Question

I have two sql inserts (for example, for the examples in tables A and B), they are in a transaction, because I want the database to remain consistent, i.e. tuple in must have references in B.

In the second insert, I need an identifier that comes from the first, but I do not get this identifier until I commit the transaction.
So I'm stuck. I do not want to take the first insert from the transaction, it may happen that the first insert is normal, and the second is not, leaving me in an inconsistent state in the database.

What is the best practice in this situation?

EDIT: Here is the code:

TransactionStatus txStatus = transactionManager.getTransaction(txDefinition);
try{
    Integer aId = insertIntoA();
    insertIntoB(aId);
}catch(){
    transactionManager.rollback(txStatus);
    throw new CustomException(); 
}
transactionManager.commit(txStatus);

I want to note that I don't get aID until I commit the transaction, so I insert zero in B.

MySQL, insertIntoA :

SELECT LAST_INSERT_ID()

... , , identity, .

Answer 3

After the first insertion you can do

SELECT @@IDENTITY

To get the identity of the row just inserted?
