Interface Transaction

public interface Transaction

The Transaction interface allows operations to be performed against the transaction in the target Transaction object. A Transaction object is created corresponding to each global transaction creation. The Transaction object can be used for resource enlistment, synchronization registration, transaction completion, and status query operations.

Method Summary

void	commit() Complete the transaction represented by this Transaction object.
boolean	delistResource(XAResource xaRes, int flag) Disassociate the resource specified from the transaction associated with the target Transaction object.
boolean	enlistResource(XAResource xaRes) Enlist the resource specified with the transaction associated with the target Transaction object.
int	getStatus() Obtain the status of the transaction associated with the target Transaction object.
void	registerSynchronization(Synchronization sync) Register a synchronization object for the transaction currently associated with the target object.
void	rollback() Rollback the transaction represented by this Transaction object.
void	setRollbackOnly() Modify the transaction associated with the target object such that the only possible outcome of the transaction is to roll back the transaction.

Method Detail

commit

void commit()
            throws RollbackException,
                   HeuristicMixedException,
                   HeuristicRollbackException,
                   java.lang.SecurityException,
                   java.lang.IllegalStateException,
                   SystemException

Complete the transaction represented by this Transaction object.

Throws:

RollbackException - Thrown to indicate that the transaction has been rolled back rather than committed.

HeuristicMixedException - Thrown to indicate that a heuristic decision was made and that some relevant updates have been committed while others have been rolled back.

HeuristicRollbackException - Thrown to indicate that a heuristic decision was made and that all relevant updates have been rolled back.

SecurityException - Thrown to indicate that the thread is not allowed to commit the transaction.

IllegalStateException - Thrown if the transaction in the target object is inactive.

SystemException - Thrown if the transaction manager encounters an unexpected error condition.

delistResource

boolean delistResource(XAResource xaRes,
                       int flag)
                       throws java.lang.IllegalStateException,
                              SystemException

Disassociate the resource specified from the transaction associated with the target Transaction object.

Parameters:

xaRes - The XAResource object associated with the resource (connection).

flag - One of the values of TMSUCCESS, TMSUSPEND, or TMFAIL.

Returns:

true if the resource was delisted successfully; otherwise false.

Throws:

IllegalStateException - Thrown if the transaction in the target object is inactive.

SystemException - Thrown if the transaction manager encounters an unexpected error condition.

enlistResource

boolean enlistResource(XAResource xaRes)
                       throws RollbackException,
                              java.lang.IllegalStateException,
                              SystemException

Enlist the resource specified with the transaction associated with the target Transaction object.

Parameters:

xaRes - The XAResource object associated with the resource (connection).

Returns:

true if the resource was enlisted successfully; otherwise false.

Throws:

RollbackException - Thrown to indicate that the transaction has been marked for rollback only.

IllegalStateException - Thrown if the transaction in the target object is in the prepared state or the transaction is inactive.

SystemException - Thrown if the transaction manager encounters an unexpected error condition.

getStatus

int getStatus()
              throws SystemException

Obtain the status of the transaction associated with the target Transaction object.

Returns:

The transaction status. If no transaction is associated with the target object, this method returns the Status.NoTransaction value.

Throws:

SystemException - Thrown if the transaction manager encounters an unexpected error condition.

registerSynchronization

void registerSynchronization(Synchronization sync)
                             throws RollbackException,
                                    java.lang.IllegalStateException,
                                    SystemException

Register a synchronization object for the transaction currently associated with the target object. The transction manager invokes the beforeCompletion method prior to starting the two-phase transaction commit process. After the transaction is completed, the transaction manager invokes the afterCompletion method.

Parameters:

sync - The Synchronization object for the transaction associated with the target object.

Throws:

RollbackException - Thrown to indicate that the transaction has been marked for rollback only.

IllegalStateException - Thrown if the transaction in the target object is in the prepared state or the transaction is inactive.

SystemException - Thrown if the transaction manager encounters an unexpected error condition.

rollback

void rollback()
              throws java.lang.IllegalStateException,
                     SystemException

Rollback the transaction represented by this Transaction object.

Throws:

IllegalStateException - Thrown if the transaction in the target object is in the prepared state or the transaction is inactive.

SystemException - Thrown if the transaction manager encounters an unexpected error condition.

setRollbackOnly

void setRollbackOnly()
                     throws java.lang.IllegalStateException,
                            SystemException

Modify the transaction associated with the target object such that the only possible outcome of the transaction is to roll back the transaction.

Throws:

IllegalStateException - Thrown if the target object is not associated with any transaction.

SystemException - Thrown if the transaction manager encounters an unexpected error condition.
