Hi Guys,
I found this in the
EJB spec:
For CMP entity beans, only the Required, RequiresNew, or Mandatory transaction attributes should be used for the transactional methods defined in the bean's component and home interface.
I am not really sure why this is so, I mean what is wrong with using NotSupported, Supports or Never? If I have my own business methods in an entity bean that I don't want to be in a transaction how could I do this?
Granted, with an entity bean mapped to a persistent store, I would most likely need to execute inside a transaction, but what if I didn't?
Anyone who had any ideas about this please help!
Thanx.
James.
