public Interface Status

A transaction is associated with the target object and it is in the active state. An implementation returns this status after a transaction has been started and prior to a Coordinator issuing any prepares, unless the transaction has been marked for rollback.

A transaction is associated with the target object and it has been committed. It is likely that heuristics exist; otherwise, the transaction would have been destroyed and NoTransaction returned.

A transaction is associated with the target object and it is in the process of committing. An implementation returns this status if it has decided to commit but has not yet completed the committing process. This occurs because the implementation is probably waiting for responses from one or more Resources.

A transaction is associated with the target object and it has been marked for rollback, perhaps as a result of a setRollbackOnly operation.

No transaction is currently associated with the target object. This will occur after a transaction has completed.

A transaction is associated with the target object and it has been prepared. That is, all subordinates have agreed to commit. The target object may be waiting for instructions from a superior as to how to proceed.

A transaction is associated with the target object and it is in the process of preparing. An implementation returns this status if it has started preparing, but has not yet completed the process. The likely reason for this is that the implementation is probably waiting for responses to prepare from one or more Resources.

A transaction is associated with the target object and the outcome has been determined to be rollback. It is likely that heuristics exist; otherwise, the transaction would have been destroyed and NoTransaction returned.

A transaction is associated with the target object and it is in the process of rolling back. An implementation returns this status if it has decided to rollback but has not yet completed the process. The implementation is probably waiting for responses from one or more Resources.

A transaction is associated with the target object but its current status cannot be determined. This is a transient condition and a subsequent invocation will ultimately return a different status.
