Is it possible to annotate a method with @TransactionAttribute in BMT EJB?

[Vinay Kejriwal]

Hi,

I came across a piece of code where the bean implementation class has @TransactionManagement(TransactionManagementType.BEAN) annotation wherein methods are annotated with CMT @TransactionAttribute. Is is valid? I am puzzled?
Can an EJB with BMT persistence use CMT transaction annotation? What will be the behavior at runtime?

@Stateless( mappedName = "Abc")
@Remote("AbcRemote.class")
@Local("AbcLocal.class")
@TransactionManagement(TransactionManagementType.BEAN)
public class AbcBean implements AbcLocal, AbcRemote{

@Resource
private UserTransaction utx;

@PersistenceUnit
private EntityManagerFactory emf;

@Override
@TransactionAttribute(TransactionAttributeType.REQUIRED)
	public Abc getAlpbabets(String name) {
		EntityManager em = null;
		try {
			em = emf.createEntityManager();
		}
		catch (RuntimeException re) {

			throw re;
		}
		finally {
			
		}
	}
}

Thanks in advance.
