Jon Wingfield, thanks for your reply.
My application is a Web Application (.war) only, no ejb's etc. However,
since I'm using Composite View Pattern (aka Templating), I want different
parts to be combined into One View, all in one transaction. This is done in
a Servlet.
Now if Tomcat doesn't provide a reference to an implementation of
javax.transaction.UserTransaction, through JNDI lookup, then I believe there
must be some other of doing this. e.g. Using a third party package that
provides the implementation of javax.transaction api and plugging it in the
application. Do you know of any?
Remember, after all this is on the Web Tier, Tomcat tier, there must be a
way of doing it!
Thanks
Hassan
