Interface TransactionFactory

All Known Implementing Classes:

JtaTransactionManager, OC4JJtaTransactionManager, SimpleTransactionFactory, WebLogicJtaTransactionManager, WebSphereUowTransactionManager

public interface TransactionFactory

Strategy interface for creating JTA Transaction objects based on specified transactional characteristics.

The default implementation, SimpleTransactionFactory, simply wraps a standard JTA TransactionManager. This strategy interface allows for more sophisticated implementations that adapt to vendor-specific JTA extensions.

Method Detail

createTransaction

Transaction createTransaction(String name,
                              int timeout)
                              throws NotSupportedException,
                                     SystemException

Create an active Transaction object based on the given name and timeout.

Parameters:

name - the transaction name (may be null)

timeout - the transaction timeout (may be -1 for the default timeout)

Returns:

the active Transaction object (never null)

Throws:

NotSupportedException - if the transaction manager does not support a transaction of the specified type

SystemException - if the transaction manager failed to create the transaction

supportsResourceAdapterManagedTransactions

boolean supportsResourceAdapterManagedTransactions()

Determine whether the underlying transaction manager supports XA transactions managed by a resource adapter (i.e. without explicit XA resource enlistment).

Typically false. Checked by AbstractMessageEndpointFactory in order to differentiate between invalid configuration and valid ResourceAdapter-managed transactions.
