First an additional answer: you can return whatever you want. That will then
become the return value of the performInTransaction() call.
But I have a related question. How is an explicit rollback supposed to work
there? If I halfway through decide to roll back the entire transaction, after a
few commitChanges() already have happened, how do I do that?
I tried
context.rollbackChangesLocally();
BaseTransaction.getThreadTransaction().rollback();
but then I get
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Transaction must have ‘STATUS_ACTIVE’ to be
committed. Current status: STATUS_ROLLEDBACK
What seems to work is throwing a CayenneRuntimeException, but that will get
rethrown after the rollback, so I would have to catch that again outside the
performInTransaction() call, which doesn't feel how it's supposed to work.
