public class WebSphereUowTransactionManager
extends JtaTransactionManager
implements CallbackPreferringPlatformTransactionManager

WebSphere-specific PlatformTransactionManager implementation that delegates to a UOWManager instance, obtained from WebSphere's JNDI environment. This allows Spring to leverage the full power of the WebSphere transaction coordinator, including transaction suspension, in a manner that is perfectly compliant with officially supported WebSphere API.

The CallbackPreferringPlatformTransactionManager interface implemented by this class indicates that callers should preferably pass in a TransactionCallback through the execute(org.springframework.transaction.TransactionDefinition, org.springframework.transaction.support.TransactionCallback) method, which will be handled through the callback-based WebSphere UOWManager API instead of through standard JTA API (UserTransaction / TransactionManager). This avoids the use of the non-public javax.transaction.TransactionManager API on WebSphere, staying within supported WebSphere API boundaries.

This transaction manager implementation derives from Spring's standard JtaTransactionManager, inheriting the capability to support programmatic transaction demarcation via getTransaction / commit / rollback calls through a JTA UserTransaction handle, for callers that do not use the TransactionCallback-based execute(org.springframework.transaction.TransactionDefinition, org.springframework.transaction.support.TransactionCallback) method. However, transaction suspension is not supported in this getTransaction style (unless you explicitly specify a JtaTransactionManager.setTransactionManager(javax.transaction.TransactionManager) reference, despite the official WebSphere recommendations). Use the execute(org.springframework.transaction.TransactionDefinition, org.springframework.transaction.support.TransactionCallback) style for any code that might require transaction suspension.

This transaction manager is compatible with WebSphere 7.0 as well as recent WebSphere 6.0.x and 6.1.x versions. Check the documentation for your specific WebSphere version to find out whether UOWManager support is available. If it is not available, consider using Spring's standard JtaTransactionManager class, if necessary specifying the WebSphereTransactionManagerFactoryBean as "transactionManager" through the corresponding bean property. However, note that transaction suspension is not officially supported in such a scenario (despite it being known to work properly).

The default JNDI location for the UOWManager is "java:comp/websphere/UOWManager". If the location happens to differ according to your WebSphere documentation, simply specify the actual location through this transaction manager's "uowManagerName" bean property.

Field Detail

Constructor Detail

WebSphereUowTransactionManager

public WebSphereUowTransactionManager()

Create a new WebSphereUowTransactionManager.

WebSphereUowTransactionManager

public WebSphereUowTransactionManager(com.ibm.wsspi.uow.UOWManager uowManager)

Create a new WebSphereUowTransactionManager for the given UOWManager.

Parameters:

uowManager - the WebSphere UOWManager to use as direct reference

Method Detail

setUowManager

public void setUowManager(com.ibm.wsspi.uow.UOWManager uowManager)

Set the WebSphere UOWManager to use as direct reference.

Typically just used for test setups; in a J2EE environment, the UOWManager will always be fetched from JNDI.

See Also:

JtaTransactionManager.setUserTransactionName(java.lang.String)

setUowManagerName

public void setUowManagerName(String uowManagerName)

Set the JNDI name of the WebSphere UOWManager. The default "java:comp/websphere/UOWManager" is used if not set.

See Also:

JtaTransactionManager.DEFAULT_USER_TRANSACTION_NAME, setUowManager(com.ibm.wsspi.uow.UOWManager)

afterPropertiesSet

public void afterPropertiesSet()
                        throws TransactionSystemException

Description copied from class: JtaTransactionManager

Initialize the UserTransaction as well as the TransactionManager handle.

Specified by:

afterPropertiesSet in interface InitializingBean

Overrides:

afterPropertiesSet in class JtaTransactionManager

Throws:

TransactionSystemException

See Also:

JtaTransactionManager.initUserTransactionAndTransactionManager()

                                                 throws TransactionSystemException

Look up the WebSphere UOWManager in JNDI via the configured name. Called by afterPropertiesSet if no direct UOWManager reference was set. Can be overridden in subclasses to provide a different UOWManager object.

Parameters:

uowManagerName - the JNDI name of the UOWManager

Returns:

the UOWManager object

Throws:

TransactionSystemException - if the JNDI lookup failed

execute

public Object execute(TransactionDefinition definition,
                      TransactionCallback callback)
               throws TransactionException

Description copied from interface: CallbackPreferringPlatformTransactionManager

Execute the action specified by the given callback object within a transaction.

Allows for returning a result object created within the transaction, that is, a domain object or a collection of domain objects. A RuntimeException thrown by the callback is treated as a fatal exception that enforces a rollback. Such an exception gets propagated to the caller of the template.

Specified by:

execute in interface CallbackPreferringPlatformTransactionManager

Parameters:

definition - the definition for the transaction to wrap the callback in

callback - the callback object that specifies the transactional action

Returns:

a result object returned by the callback, or null if none

Throws:

TransactionException - in case of initialization, rollback, or system errors
