public class TxSupports
extends TransactionPolicy

17.6.2.3 Supports The Container invokes an enterprise Bean method whose transaction attribute is set to Supports as follows. ? If the client calls with a transaction context, the Container performs the same steps as described in the Required case. ? If the client calls without a transaction context, the Container performs the same steps as described in the NotSupported case. The Supports transaction attribute must be used with caution. This is because of the different transactional semantics provided by the two possible modes of execution. Only the enterprise beans that will execute correctly in both modes should use the Supports transaction attribute.

Method Detail

policyToString

public java.lang.String policyToString()
Overrides:
policyToString in class TransactionPolicy

beforeInvoke

public void beforeInvoke(javax.ejb.EnterpriseBean instance,
                         TransactionContext context)
                  throws SystemException,
                         ApplicationException
Specified by:
beforeInvoke in class TransactionPolicy
Throws:
SystemException
ApplicationException

afterInvoke

public void afterInvoke(javax.ejb.EnterpriseBean instance,
                        TransactionContext context)
                 throws ApplicationException,
                        SystemException
Specified by:
afterInvoke in class TransactionPolicy
Throws:
ApplicationException
SystemException

handleApplicationException

public void handleApplicationException(java.lang.Throwable appException,
                                       TransactionContext context)
                                throws ApplicationException
Container's action

Re-throw AppException

Client's view

Client receives AppException. Can attempt to continue computation in the transaction, and eventually commit the transaction (the commit would fail if the instance called setRollbackOnly()).

Specified by:
handleApplicationException in class TransactionPolicy
Throws:
ApplicationException

handleSystemException

public void handleSystemException(java.lang.Throwable sysException,
                                  javax.ejb.EnterpriseBean instance,
                                  TransactionContext context)
                           throws ApplicationException,
                                  SystemException
A system exception is any exception that is not an Application Exception.
Container's action

  1. Log the exception or error so that the System Administrator is alerted of the problem.
  2. Mark the transaction for rollback.
  3. Discard instance. The Container must not invoke any business methods or container callbacks on the instance.
  4. Throw javax.transaction.TransactionRolledbackException to remote client; throw javax.ejb.TransactionRolledbackLocalException to local client.

Client's view

Receives javax.transaction.TransactionRolledbackException or javax.ejb.TransactionRolledbackLocalException. Continuing transaction is fruitless.

Specified by:
handleSystemException in class TransactionPolicy
Throws:
ApplicationException
SystemException
