Transactional does not work when subclassing generic class ---------------------------------------------------------- Key: WFLY-3323 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-3323 Project: WildFly Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Affects Versions: 8.1.0.CR1 Reporter: Marcin T Assignee: Jason Greene I'm getting exception: javax.persistence.TransactionRequiredException: JBAS011469: Transaction is required to perform this operation (either use a transaction or extended persistence context) for the following code: @Transactional public static class Parent<E> { protected EntityManager em; public void create(E entity) { em.persist(entity); } } @Transactional public static class Child extends Parent<EndEntity> { @Override public void create(EndEntity entity) { super.create(entity); } } then I invoking create() method in submitEntity(): public class EndEntityController { @Inject private Child child; private Parent<EndEntity> parent() { return child; } protected void submitEntity(EndEntity entity) { EndEntity endEntity = new EndEntity(); parent().create(endEntity); } When the Parent class is not generic then the code above works.
