JMS session transaction not managed by container?

[aleksander.lech]

Hi,
I cant send a JMS message when specyfying transactional attribute when creating session.

Heres the code, maybe You could help:

publicvoid notifyGeofencingMgr() {
 try {
 Connection jmsConn = connectionFactory.createConnection();
 javax.jms.Session jmsSession = jmsConn.createSession(true, javax.jms.Session.AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE);

 TextMessage msg = jmsSession.createTextMessage();
 msg.setText("test");
 MessageProducer sender = jmsSession.createProducer(geofencingMgrQueue);

 sender.send(msg);
 jmsSession.close();

 } catch (JMSException e) {
 log.error("Unable to send JMS message", e);

 }

This method is one the session bean bussiness method which is included in UT. The message does not go to MDB when using transactional JMS session (jmsConn.createSession(true, javax.jms.Session.AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE)). Any ideas?

you need to commit the session after you have sent the message, i.e.

jmsSession.commit();

Now works, thanks.
But why it cannot be done by the container in the same way the User Transaction propagates to EntityManager?

you need to use the java:/JmsXA connection factory, have a llook at the MDB examples shipped with JBM 1.4
