I've seen a TransactionRequiredException error occur on persist() when no transaction is active, for an extended persistence context. jsr220 states, in 3.1.1:
/* * @throws TransactionRequiredException if invoked on a * container-managed entity manager of type * PersistenceContextType.TRANSACTION and there is * no transaction */ In 3.3 it states: When an EntityManager with an extended persistence context is used, the persist, remove, merge, and refresh operations may be called regardless of whether a transaction is active. However, in the OpenJPA documention at http://openjpa.apache.org/builds/apache-openjpa-1.2.3-SNAPSHOT/docs/manual/manual.html#jpa_overview_em_trans it states: This action [persist] can only be used in the context of an active transaction. without any qualification as to the persistenceContextType of the entity manager. Is OpenJPA in compliance with the spec here? -- View this message in context: http://openjpa.208410.n2.nabble.com/TransactionRequiredException-on-persist-on-extended-EM-tp6972526p6972526.html Sent from the OpenJPA Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
