    • Method Detail

      • begin

        void begin()
            throws NotSupportedException,
                   SystemException
        Create a new transaction and associate it with the current thread.
        Throws:
        NotSupportedException - Thrown if the thread is already associated with a transaction and the Transaction Manager implementation does not support nested transactions.
        SystemException - Thrown if the transaction manager encounters an unexpected error condition.
      • rollback

        void rollback()
               throws IllegalStateException,
                      SecurityException,
                      SystemException
        Roll back the transaction associated with the current thread. When this method completes, the thread is no longer associated with a transaction.
        Throws:
        SecurityException - Thrown to indicate that the thread is not allowed to roll back the transaction.
        IllegalStateException - Thrown if the current thread is not associated with a transaction.
        SystemException - Thrown if the transaction manager encounters an unexpected error condition.
      • setRollbackOnly

        void setRollbackOnly()
                      throws IllegalStateException,
                             SystemException
        Modify the transaction associated with the current thread such that the only possible outcome of the transaction is to roll back the transaction.
        Throws:
        IllegalStateException - Thrown if the current thread is not associated with a transaction.
        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 current thread.
        Returns:
        The transaction status. If no transaction is associated with the current thread, this method returns the Status.NoTransaction value.
        Throws:
        SystemException - Thrown if the transaction manager encounters an unexpected error condition.
      • setTransactionTimeout

        void setTransactionTimeout​(int seconds)
                            throws SystemException
        Modify the timeout value that is associated with transactions started by the current thread with the begin method.

        If an application has not called this method, the transaction service uses some default value for the transaction timeout.

        Parameters:
        seconds - The value of the timeout in seconds. If the value is zero, the transaction service restores the default value. If the value is negative a SystemException is thrown.
        Throws:
        SystemException - Thrown if the transaction manager encounters an unexpected error condition.
