[jbossts-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBTM-506) jtax subordinate TransactionImple confuses TwoPhaseOutcome and ActionStatus

jtax subordinate TransactionImple confuses TwoPhaseOutcome and ActionStatus --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBTM-506 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBTM-506 Project: JBoss Transaction Manager Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: Application Server Integration, JTS Implementation Affects Versions: 4.5 Reporter: Jonathan Halliday Assignee: Mark Little Fix For: 4.6 In some methods of com.arjuna.ats.internal.jta.transaction.arjunacore.subordinate.TransactionImple, code of the form int res = subAct.doFoo(); switch(res) case ActionStatus.Bar: is found. This is incorrect, as the methods on SubordinateAtomicAction return TwoPhaseOutome not ActionStatus. In the JTA the SubordinateAtomicAction returns ActionStatus which is probably where the confusion arises, so arguably it's actually the JTAX SubordinateAtomicTransaction which is at fault, not the TransactionImple. Since the case statements will need reworking anyhow, it's probably worth looking that the way 'try to commit but actually have to rollback' is handled. In the JTA this throws RollbackException as the rollback is clean. In the JTAX it results in a HeuristicRollback due to the way the states and exceptions are mapped. This is perhaps less user friendly than it could be.
