Re: Statement.setQueryTimeout() with autoCommit=false

Exactly.

According to the Java API:

void setAutoCommit(boolean autoCommit) throws SQLException

     Sets this connection's auto-commit mode to the given state. If a connection
is in auto-commit mode, then all its SQL statements will be executed and
committed as individual transactions. Otherwise, its SQL statements are grouped
into transactions that are terminated by a call to either the method commit or
the method rollback. By default, new connections are in auto-commit mode.

By setting setAutoCommit(false) you are deciding to tell the database your code
will determine when to commit the transaction. Thereby I would say overiding
setQueryTimeout().
