    Portal 2.2 - Transaction - CMT

    pmn92 Jan 12, 2006 1:36 PM

      in portlet configuration I can define a transaction tag:

      <portlet>
 <transaction>
 <trans-attribute>Required</trans-attribute>
 </transaction>
...


      Does this mean I can consider to be in a CMT environment (JTA Transaction already started) and call 
      SessionFactory.getCurrentSession();
      ?

          Yes, this will propage but this will propage the portal transaction (i.e the one that the portal uses to load its objects).

          Otherwise you should put RequiresNew

            Thanks for the answer.

            Now that I have a choice what should I read to understand what choice to make?

            All portlets in the page should use the same user transaction - at least in my application -, is there any reason I should not use the portal transaction?

            (besides, any good documentation to understand transaction specifics?)

              well... it's J2EE :-)

              most of the time the transaction demarcation used in REQUIRED.

              we don't propagate it by default because we assume that the user could start its transaction and that would conflict with the already start portal tx.

                It does not seem to be working with 2.0.
                My hibernate service is implemented as a org.hibernate.jmx.HibernateService;

                Every portlet has the folowing attribute in the jboss-portlet.xml file 

                <transaction>
