Brett Bergquist updated DERBY-5523:
-----------------------------------
Description:
If using a connection with no timeout starts an XA transaction with
xaRes.start(xid, XAResource.TMNOFLAGS);
and some work is done but the application fails without calling
xaRes.end(xid, XAResource.TMSUCCESS)
then another application cannot join that transaction using
xaRes.start(xid, XAResource.TMJOIN)
and then commit or rollback the transaction. Basically the transaction is
ACTIVE but cannot be rolled back or committed and will exist until the database
server is restarted.
This is similar to DERBY-2220. With DERBY-2220, it too will not work if the
XAResource does not have a timeout specified either. This is simple to test
by using the test code attached to DERBY-2220 and comment out the setting of
the timeout. Once doing so, the transaction will be maintained and the locks
will not be released.
This might be a deviation from the XA standard but I cannot tell. It seems as
if a XA connection does not have a timeout set is active (that is
XAResource.start has been called but XAResource.end has not) and the connection
gets closed, the XA transaction should be rolled back implicitly. This is
being done if the XAResource has a timeout set so it seems that it would not be
too hard to do in this case either.
