difference b/w BMT vs CMT?

[venkata kri]

Hi All,

Please let me know the differences between Bean Managed Transactions and Container Managed Transactios.

can we maintain the transaction state between the ejb's in Bean Managed Transactions?

Please help me

Thanks in advance

To be precise,

If you write any code to handle transaction in the bean then its called bean managed transaction.

We have DD attributes to handle the transactions as well, we have 6 attributes which are mentioned in the DD files, if you use them then its container managed.

In ejb-jar.xml we have tag called <transction-type>Container</t-t>

Which also means the same.
