So you would have flow like this Start TX Some Bussiness Logic Invoke AsynCall ---------------------> Will continue End TX AsyncCall -------> Ends later .(This can't have control of TX as that is ended earlier) Async Call should end before the END TX , then it would be useful. So asnchronous does not add value here . View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4137016#...
