Yes, I have looked at EXTERNAL. The SqlMap ExternalTransaction is similar to what I have done in SqlMapTransaction (when globalCommit = true). But the EXTERNAL type (ExternalDaoTransaction) in Dao framework is not the same as my GenericDaoTransaction - because my GenericDaoTransaction is a ConnectionDaoTransaction - ie, we still use a DataSource to manage connections - for example, we use the JDBC template to create DAO classes. I don't think that the EXTERNAL type (ExternalDaoTransaction) in DAO allows this. Regards
