Method Summary

Modifier and TypeMethod and Description
public void
commit(Xid
A global transaction identifier
xid
,
boolean
If true, the resource manager should use a one-phase commit protocol to commit the work done on behalf of xid.
onePhase
)

Commits the global transaction specified by xid.

public void
forget(Xid
A global transaction identifier.
xid
)

Tells the resource manager to forget about a heuristically completed transaction branch.

public int

Returns:

A value indicating the resource manager's vote on the outcome of the transaction. The possible values are: XA_RDONLY or XA_OK. These constants are defined in javax.transaction.xa.XAResource interface. If the resource manager wants to roll back the transaction, it should do so by raising an appropriate XAException in the prepare method.
prepare
(Xid
A global transaction identifier.
xid
)

Ask the resource manager to prepare for a transaction commit of the transaction specified in xid.

public Xid[]

Returns:

The resource manager returns zero or more XIDs of the transaction branches that are currently in a prepared or heuristically completed state. If an error occurs during the operation, the resource manager should throw the appropriate XAException.
recover
(int
One of TMSTARTRSCAN, TMENDRSCAN, TMNOFLAGS. TMNOFLAGS must be used when no other flags are set in the parameter. These constants are defined in javax.transaction.xa.XAResource interface.
flag
)

Obtains a list of prepared transaction branches from a resource manager.

public void
rollback(Xid
A global transaction identifier.
xid
)

Informs the resource manager to roll back work done on behalf of a transaction branch.

Method Detail

commitback to summary
public void commit(Xid xid, boolean onePhase) throws XAException

Commits the global transaction specified by xid.

Parameters
xid:Xid

A global transaction identifier

onePhase:boolean

If true, the resource manager should use a one-phase commit protocol to commit the work done on behalf of xid.

Exceptions
XAException:
An error has occurred. Possible XAExceptions are XA_HEURHAZ, XA_HEURCOM, XA_HEURRB, XA_HEURMIX, XAER_RMERR, XAER_RMFAIL, XAER_NOTA, XAER_INVAL, or XAER_PROTO.

If the resource manager did not commit the transaction and the parameter onePhase is set to true, the resource manager may throw one of the XA_RB* exceptions. Upon return, the resource manager has rolled back the branch's work and has released all held resources.

forgetback to summary
public void forget(Xid xid) throws XAException

Tells the resource manager to forget about a heuristically completed transaction branch.

Parameters
xid:Xid

A global transaction identifier.

Exceptions
XAException:
An error has occurred. Possible exception values are XAER_RMERR, XAER_RMFAIL, XAER_NOTA, XAER_INVAL, or XAER_PROTO.
prepareback to summary
public int prepare(Xid xid) throws XAException

Ask the resource manager to prepare for a transaction commit of the transaction specified in xid.

Parameters
xid:Xid

A global transaction identifier.

Returns:int

A value indicating the resource manager's vote on the outcome of the transaction. The possible values are: XA_RDONLY or XA_OK. These constants are defined in javax.transaction.xa.XAResource interface. If the resource manager wants to roll back the transaction, it should do so by raising an appropriate XAException in the prepare method.

Exceptions
XAException:
An error has occurred. Possible exception values are: XA_RB*, XAER_RMERR, XAER_RMFAIL, XAER_NOTA, XAER_INVAL, or XAER_PROTO.
recoverback to summary
public Xid[] recover(int flag) throws XAException

Obtains a list of prepared transaction branches from a resource manager. The transaction manager calls this method during recovery to obtain the list of transaction branches that are currently in prepared or heuristically completed states.

Parameters
flag:int

One of TMSTARTRSCAN, TMENDRSCAN, TMNOFLAGS. TMNOFLAGS must be used when no other flags are set in the parameter. These constants are defined in javax.transaction.xa.XAResource interface.

Returns:Xid[]

The resource manager returns zero or more XIDs of the transaction branches that are currently in a prepared or heuristically completed state. If an error occurs during the operation, the resource manager should throw the appropriate XAException.

Exceptions
XAException:
An error has occurred. Possible values are XAER_RMERR, XAER_RMFAIL, XAER_INVAL, and XAER_PROTO.
rollbackback to summary
public void rollback(Xid xid) throws XAException

Informs the resource manager to roll back work done on behalf of a transaction branch.

Parameters
xid:Xid

A global transaction identifier.

Exceptions
XAException:
An error has occurred. Possible XAExceptions are XA_HEURHAZ, XA_HEURCOM, XA_HEURRB, XA_HEURMIX, XAER_RMERR, XAER_RMFAIL, XAER_NOTA, XAER_INVAL, or XAER_PROTO.

If the transaction branch is already marked rollback-only the resource manager may throw one of the XA_RB* exceptions. Upon return, the resource manager has rolled back the branch's work and has released all held resources.
