JCache @CacheRemoveEntry call causing transaction to rollback

[mashama]

I have a transactional method that calls an @CacheRemoveEntry annotated method on another bean.  I have set the transaction logging to TRACE to get some insight into an issue I am having.  Looking at the logs I can clearly see that when I comment out the call to the @CacheRemoveEntry annotated method the transaction is committed as expected however when the method is uncommented the transaction is rolled back and aborted.  I wanted to reach out to the WildFly community as I attempt to identify why exactly I am seeing this behavior. 

class A {

  @Inject
  private B model;

  @Transactional
  public void doSomeWork(Long modelId) {
     …
     …


     model.clearCachedModel(modelId);
  }
}

@Model
class B {

  @Inject
  private Logger log;

  @CacheRemoveEntry(cacheName="model-cache")
  public void clearCachedModel(Long modelId) {
       log.info("sweeet");
  }

}

I am seeing no exceptions being generated here nor do I see the INFO logging call.  Am I correct in assuming that the B.clearCachedModel(Long) call should not cause the transaction to rollback?  If so how can I get more insight into why the transaction is getting rolled back?  If not what am I not understanding here?

So I did a little more digging today and I think I understand what is going on here.  I commented out the @Model annotation and my code started working as expected.  In my description above I neglected to document provide relevant implementation details.  This code is exercised in an asynchronous thread kicked off a call utilizing the new concurrent utilities API.  Thus there is no active request scope when B.clearCachedModel(Long) is called.

Assuming that my understanding is now correct should I not expect some type of exception to be generated in this scenario?
