Carlo de Wolf [http://community.jboss.org/people/wolfc] created the discussion "Regression on setRollbackOnly" To view the discussion, visit: http://community.jboss.org/message/548668#548668 -------------------------------------------------------------- With the introduction of https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBTM-234 https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBTM-234 we see regression on EJB 3 testsuites when setRollbackOnly is called from afterCompletion. We expect to get an IllegalStateException, instead a SystemException is thrown. As the issue states OTS raises Inactive: While the JTA spec doesn't explicitly account for such a scenario. To recount: And Now it really becomes a choice which exception should be thrown. In principal both the state of the transaction and transaction services are not compromised and transaction services proceeds in a defined manner. The outcome of the transaction is the status as passed into the afterCompletion. Based on the description in SystemException I would say that TS should *not* throw that exception, but instead the IllegalStateException. -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/548668#548668] Start a new discussion in JBoss Transactions Development at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
