[wildfly-dev] 4 y.o. transactions hack calls wildfly his home now: should we depart it?

Hi, Lately there was a need to fix a peculiar issue related to handling non-exiting tx: no matter what results xa_commit would bring, it was ignored: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-7196 What I realised while working on it was this behaviour is kinda intentional. To be exact: https://github.com/jbosstm/jboss-as/commit/87ea78a26a53b71411dd52753bb08e... https://github.com/jbosstm/jboss-as/commit/de5fbd309cad0767eaf8cf9a8b55f8... Making XidTransaction*Tasks more strict by throwing exceptions when there is no way to find a transaction causes some test failures because the whole thing currently relies on that. We have sort of conflicting requirements here. I think we need to figure out how do we distinguish between these two possibile situations when no tx is found: the one where we call alarm and the one which we want to ignore. Maybe that hack should be placed somewhere else. What do you think? Fedor
