UserTransaction.rollback() must not throw IllegalStateException if getStatus()==STATUS_ROLLEDBACK
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBAS-6663
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-6663
             Project: JBoss Application Server
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
          Components: Transaction Manager (Arjuna)
    Affects Versions: JBossAS-4.2.3.GA
            Reporter: Jörg von Frantzius
            Assignee: Jonathan Halliday


When a timeout has occurred, UserTransaction.getStatus() returns STATUS_ROLLEDBACK. Calling UserTransaction.rollback() at this point will throw the following IllegalStateException:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: [com.arjuna.ats.internal.jta.transaction.arjunacore.inactive] [com.arjuna.ats.internal.jta.transaction.arjunacore.inactive] The transaction is not active!
at com.arjuna.ats.internal.jta.transaction.arjunacore.TransactionImple.rollbackAndDisassociate(TransactionImple.java:1473)
at com.arjuna.ats.internal.jta.transaction.arjunacore.BaseTransaction.rollback(BaseTransaction.java:163)
at com.arjuna.ats.jbossatx.BaseTransactionManagerDelegate.rollback(BaseTransactionManagerDelegate.java:126)
at org.jboss.tm.usertx.client.ServerVMClientUserTransaction.rollback(ServerVMClientUserTransaction.java:148) 

The JTA specification says about when UserTransaction.rollback() may throw IllegalStateException: "IllegalStateException Thrown if the current thread is not associated with a transaction." Since getStatus() does return STATUS_ROLLEDBACK (and *not* STATUS_NO_TRANSACTION), the thread obviously still is associated with a transaction. 

Apart from breaking the JTA contract, this effectively renders the UserTransaction useless since begin() will also throw exception.
