[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (AS7-1663) An extended persistence context should not be propagated if there is no JTA transaction

An extended persistence context should not be propagated if there is no JTA transaction --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: AS7-1663 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-1663 Project: Application Server 7 Issue Type: Feature Request Components: JPA / Hibernate Affects Versions: 7.0.0.Final Reporter: Scott Marlow Assignee: Scott Marlow Fix For: 7.0.2.Final JPA 2.0 specification section 7.6.3.1 Requirements for Persistence Context Propagation: " Persistence contexts are propagated by the container across component invocations as follows. If a component is called and there is no JTA transaction or the JTA transaction is not propagated, the persistence context is not propagated. " For the case of a SFSB (with an extended persistence context XPC) method that is not in a JTA transaction, invoking a SLSB (with a transactional entity manager PC) method that requires a transaction. The SLSB method should not use the extended persistence context but should instead start a new persistence context instead for the duration of the SLSB transaction (will end at the method end).
