TransactionManager.setTransactionTimeOut does not work

[esriram]

TransactionManager.setTransactionTimeOut does not work.
The javax.transaction.TransactionManager java doc says that the time out of a transaction can be modified using the setTransactionTimeOut method.

Am using JBoss 3.2.3. Any workarounds??? Has it been fixed in later releases.

thanks,

This is not a user forum!

Bug reports are posted here: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBJTA

But

TransactionManager.setTransactionTimeOut does not work.

is not a bug report, it is an unqualified (and probably uneducated) assertion.

Read this:
http://www.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=JBossForums

Two obvious misunderstandings:

1) TransactionManager is not an interface intended for user applications,
they should use UserTransaction.
2) setTransactionTimeout only applies to transactions *started after* this invocation on the *same thread*.

Also, bug reports should always be made against the latest JBoss version.
If you haven't tested jboss-3.2.6 you are just wasting everybodys time.
