Hi

This is a question from ejbcertificate.com.

Answer mentions that only 5 is the right answer. 4 is similar to 5 the only difference being that 4 is for a local client and 5 is for a remote client.
Why 4 is not right?

Which one of the following statements regarding the client view of exceptions received from an enterprise bean invocation is correct?

1. The client can safely continue the transaction by retrying the operation if an application exception is received.

2. The client can safely continue the transaction by retrying the operation if an application exception is received, but only after checking the transaction has not been marked for rollback.

3. The client can safely continue the transaction by retrying the operation if a non-application exception is received.

4. A local client cannot continue a transaction if javax.transaction.TransactionRolledbackLocalException is received.

5. A remote client cannot continue a transaction if javax.transaction.TransactionRolledbackException is received.

Thanks

Ravi

Answers are below.

1. The client can safely continue the transaction by retrying the operation if an application exception is received.

-- TRUE

2. The client can safely continue the transaction by retrying the operation if an application exception is received, but only after checking the transaction has not been marked for rollback.

-- TRUE

3. The client can safely continue the transaction by retrying the operation if a non-application exception is received.

-- FALSE

4. A local client cannot continue a transaction if javax.transaction.TransactionRolledbackLocalException is received.

-- TRUE (the transaction meant to rollback or already rolled back. So continuing the transaction is fruitless)

5. A remote client cannot continue a transaction if javax.transaction.TransactionRolledbackException is received.

-- TRUE (Explanation same as above)

Ranchers correct me if i am wrong.

Hi

Is the package structure correct in 4 & 5?

For Local Client it should be javax.ejb.TransactionRolledbackLocalException

For Remote Client it should be java.rmi.TransactionRolledbackException

This is according to HFE page # 551.

javax.transaction.TransactionRolledbackException is a subclass of java.rmi.RemoteException so 5 is correct.
