I figured out my little transaction problem. The problem was that in
the ejb-jar.xml file I had this:
...
<assembly-descriptor>
<container-transaction>
<method>
<ejb-name>Category</ejb-name>
<method-name>*</method-name>
<trans-attribute>Supports</trans-attributes>
</method>
</container-transaction>
...
every time I called the 'ejbCreate' for that entity bean, orion
started a new transaction - not what I was looking for! The following
worked, though:
...
<assembly-descriptor>
<container-transaction>
<ejb-name>Category</ejb-name>
<method-name>*</method-name>
<trans-attribute>Supports</trans-attributes>
</container-transaction>
...
I just removed the '<method>' tag. I'm not entirely sure how that tag
fits in - the orion documentation skips it, and it wasn't really
discussed in my EJB book. Matter of fact, I can't find documentation
for it anywhere.... anybody know where the dtd+description is?
