Hi David, You wrote: <You might take a look at the commit option also> I guess what you are aiming at here is commit option A,B,C,D right ?. Well I have tried to implement this option in jboss.xml but when I deploy the ear, JBoss throws a NPE. I must miss something in the xml. Do you have a snippet from jboss.xml that works with this option you could post here ?. About commit options: If I get the docs right these commit options only affects the way JBoss retrieves data from the underlying persistent datasource. That must IMHO mean that only the number of times ejbLoad() is called is different with commit option A vs. option B,C,D. Could you explain why this also affects ejbStore(). The container defaults at the moment to A.
You wrote: <Is everything executing within the same "transaction" as far as jboss is concerned?> Yes. The client executes only one call towards JBoss. All the data treatement is handled in JBoss. After treatement JBoss returns a dataSet to the client. You wrote <jboss does not argue with you if you access several non xa resources within the same tx, it just tries to commit everything at once. Of course if something fails, you're in trouble.)> Let me see if I get this right. In order to make the XA transaction work as it should, every data-resource called by the container, within the same transaction, must be a XA-resource ?, so combining xa and non-xa is a no-go in JBoss ? -Kris ----- Original Message ----- From: "David Jencks" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, January 18, 2002 1:19 AM Subject: Re: [JBoss-user] calling ejbStore() too many times > On 2002.01.17 18:22:12 -0500 Kris Kristensen wrote: > > Just read through my own post and found a typo that might give more > > meaning to the "showstopper".
