RE: How to prevent oracle from committing a transaction?

Commit will take place after any DDL statement. Besides that, Oracle Complete Reference by George Koch and Kevin Loney states that commit will occur after you execute the following commands: exit, quit, and even connect.
If you are worried about unmanaged commits after the sudden instance crash then don't worry it won't happen. Oracle will roll everything back after the instance comes back up. As to commits occurring due to the 'exit' command it seems it is not possible to stop. But you have control in that situation. Just before typing 'exit' type 'rollback' and no changes will take place.
Hope this helps, and please correct me if I am wrong.

Wait a minute here.

Why would oracle do a commit on your transaction just because it needs to do a checkpoint, logfile switch, or shutdown?

What if errors occur during validation?

Do you think Oracle will commit the data anyways?
