Examples/Snippets for Jboss transactions in stand alone mode.

abyv Nov 6, 2012 4:17 AM

Hi,

I would like to experiment JBoss transaction management interacting with various resources of

1)Infinispan Cache,

2)An ORM Layer which offers XA support through JCA Adapter.

I am planning to manage these transactions from a core java applications( not deployed in a application server). It would be of great help if somebody provide snippets/examples atleast explaining

1: How JBoss Ts manages transactions of infinispan?

2: How transaction manager used in infinispan enlists other XA resources?

3: How multiple XA resources transactions are managed in a concurrent environment?

Thanks In Advance

Aby

Hi,

Integration of our transaction manager into other environments is normally done by the team responsible for the other environment so I would recommend that you ask your question on the infinispan forum.

Thanks for the immediate response Michael , I agree, question1 is very specific to infinispan but i am curious to know how Jboss transactions enlists different XA resources and how transactions are associated to threads?

It would be greatful how if somebody could show light on how to enlist XA resources to transaction manager ( in stand alone mode) For eg
Say, I have to put data to two rdbms db instances A and B simultaneously and both post should be within the same transaction boundary.

Hi Aby,

enlistResource is a method hanging off javax.transaction.Transaction iirc: http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/1.3/api/javax/transaction/Transaction.html#enlistResource%28javax.transaction.xa.XAResource%29

I should note, you wil need to set up recovery for your resources as per our recovery manual, but the above should get you started with enlisting the resource at least

Thank you Tom, I understood how i enlist this XA Resource, but how will I associate this transaction to Transaction Manager?

Do you mean, "how do I create a transaction in standalone mode?"

Exactly Tom, I am trying to develop a typical core java application and trying to use jboss ts for transaction management. I would like to know how i take care of distributed resources of rdbms and infinispan cache together.

To include RDBMs into your transaction we supply a transactional driver, http://docs.jboss.org/jbosstm/5.0.0.M1/guides/narayana-jta-development_guide/ch02.html, (but we will be migrating away from this and use JCA in some future release).

What kind of interface does infinispan provide for performing work within a transction.

I just pointed someone else in a similar direction over here: https://community.jboss.org/message/775234

Take a look at the JTATest I linked him to....
