Enum Transactional.TxType

java.lang.Object

java.lang.Enum<Transactional.TxType>

javax.transaction.Transactional.TxType

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<Transactional.TxType>

Enclosing class:

Transactional

public static enum Transactional.TxType
extends Enum<Transactional.TxType>

The TxType element of the annotation indicates whether a bean method is to be executed within a transaction context where the values provide the following corresponding behavior.

Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant and Description
MANDATORY If called outside a transaction context, a TransactionalException with a nested TransactionRequiredException must be thrown.
NEVER If called outside a transaction context, managed bean method execution must then continue outside a transaction context.
NOT_SUPPORTED If called outside a transaction context, managed bean method execution must then continue outside a transaction context.
REQUIRED If called outside a transaction context, the interceptor must begin a new JTA transaction, the managed bean method execution must then continue inside this transaction context, and the transaction must be completed by the interceptor.
REQUIRES_NEW If called outside a transaction context, the interceptor must begin a new JTA transaction, the managed bean method execution must then continue inside this transaction context, and the transaction must be completed by the interceptor.
SUPPORTS If called outside a transaction context, managed bean method execution must then continue outside a transaction context.

Enum Constant Detail

REQUIRED

public static final Transactional.TxType REQUIRED

If called outside a transaction context, the interceptor must begin a new JTA transaction, the managed bean method execution must then continue inside this transaction context, and the transaction must be completed by the interceptor.

If called inside a transaction context, the managed bean method execution must then continue inside this transaction context.

REQUIRES_NEW

public static final Transactional.TxType REQUIRES_NEW

If called outside a transaction context, the interceptor must begin a new JTA transaction, the managed bean method execution must then continue inside this transaction context, and the transaction must be completed by the interceptor.

If called inside a transaction context, the current transaction context must be suspended, a new JTA transaction will begin, the managed bean method execution must then continue inside this transaction context, the transaction must be completed, and the previously suspended transaction must be resumed.

MANDATORY

public static final Transactional.TxType MANDATORY

If called outside a transaction context, a TransactionalException with a nested TransactionRequiredException must be thrown.

If called inside a transaction context, managed bean method execution will then continue under that context.

SUPPORTS

public static final Transactional.TxType SUPPORTS

If called outside a transaction context, managed bean method execution must then continue outside a transaction context.

If called inside a transaction context, the managed bean method execution must then continue inside this transaction context.

NOT_SUPPORTED

public static final Transactional.TxType NOT_SUPPORTED

If called outside a transaction context, managed bean method execution must then continue outside a transaction context.

If called inside a transaction context, the current transaction context must be suspended, the managed bean method execution must then continue outside a transaction context, and the previously suspended transaction must be resumed by the interceptor that suspended it after the method execution has completed.

NEVER

public static final Transactional.TxType NEVER

If called outside a transaction context, managed bean method execution must then continue outside a transaction context.

If called inside a transaction context, a TransactionalException with a nested InvalidTransactionException must be thrown.

Method Detail

values

public static Transactional.TxType[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (Transactional.TxType c : Transactional.TxType.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static Transactional.TxType valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
