[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Assigned: (EJBTHREE-2167) @TransactionAttribute declared in superclass is ignore & @TransactionAttribute conflict to Deployment Descriptor

@TransactionAttribute declared in superclass is ignore & @TransactionAttribute conflict to Deployment Descriptor ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: EJBTHREE-2167 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/EJBTHREE-2167 Project: EJB 3.0 Issue Type: Bug Components: ejb3 Environment: jboss-5.1.0.GA Sun jdk1.6.0_16 WinXP 32bit Reporter: e t Assignee: jaikiran pai Attachments: src.rar According to the EJB3 Specification，If the bean class has superclasses, the following additional rules apply. • A transaction attribute specified on a superclass S applies to the business methods defined by S. If a class-level transaction attribute is not specified on S, it is equivalent to specification of TransactionAttribute(REQUIRED) on S. • A transaction attribute may be specified on a business method M defined by class S to override for method M the transaction attribute value explicitly or implicitly specified on the class S. • If a method M of class S overrides a business method defined by a superclass of S, the transaction attribute of M is determined by the above rules as applied to class S. The issue is : 1 . When I take the test of a SLSB which has a superclass and its transaction attribute is set to NEVER, I always get the method call in transaction attribute is set to REQUIRED(see the follow code for details). 2 . When I deploy an empty ejb-jar.xml and jboss.xml to META-INF directory, the SLSB's transaction attribute is set to SUPPORTS/NOT_SUPPORTEDNEVER PS:I using the EntityManager's persist method call for checking current method call is associated with a transaction.
