Hi Philippe --
Thanks for your timely reply.
I will restate what I think you told me so you can tell me if I got
it right!
Jonas uses the XA API. Therefore Jonas implements an XA-compatible
TM which is in turn available through JTA/JTS(?). The TM has not been
used for distributed two-phase commits yet, because you haven't used
it with drivers that support TPC. You are in the process of getting
Jonas working with the TPC JDBC drivers.
Does that sound right?
At the end of June you expect to have a new release which will handle
full TPC via XA. Is this a development release, or are you hoping to
have the TM ready to work in a production environment?
