I am having 3 session beans.
1)citibank bean
2)standard bean
3)global

citibank bean
--------------
Database
  table:citibank
  fields:name,amount

i have bussiness method called
 public boolean credit(String name,int amount) throws RemoteException{
  --->value will be added if name exist in table
  -- >throws remote exception if name doesn't exist
 }
 ejb-jar file
 -------------
  <transaction-type>Container</transaction-type>
  <trans-attribute>Supports</trans-attribute>
 
 standard bean
--------------
Database
  table:standard
  fields:name,amount

i have bussiness method called
 public boolean debit(String name,int amount) throws RemoteException{
  --->value will be debited if name exist in table
  -- >throws remote exception if name doesn't exist
 }
 ejb-jar file
 -------------
  <transaction-type>Container</transaction-type>
  <trans-attribute>Supports</trans-attribute>
 
 global bean
--------------

i have bussiness method called
 public boolean transferSTtoCT(String name1,String name2,int amount) throws RemoteException{
  --->firset calling standard bean's debit method
             debit(name1,amount)
  ---->second calling citibank bean's credit method
             credit(name2,amount)
              
  -- >throws remote exception if anyone throw RemoteException
 }
 ejb-jar file
 -------------
  <transaction-type>Container</transaction-type>
  <trans-attribute>RequiresNew</trans-attribute>
 
 Client
---------
 case1
    transferSTtoCT("ab","ab",100)

 case2
    transferSTtoCT("ab","gh",100)
 
 First param of transferSTtoCT() goes to debit() method
 Second param of transferSTtoCT() goes to credit() method
 Third param of transferSTtoCT() goes to both credit() & debit() method
 I am having name "ab" in both table(citibank & standard)
 and name "gh" not in the both table

 In case1
------------
 in this case it works well
 it will debit in the standard and credit in citibank
 since both citibank bean and standard bean dosen't
 throw any exception

 In case2
----------
 in this case am getting problem
 
 it's debiting amount in the standard
 credit method throws RemoteException since name"gh" is not
 in the table
 
 result should be: standard should rollback

 but for me standard is not rollbacked
 Eventhough i am throwing exception in all the 3 bean
 inorder to rollback if something goes wrong

 What should be done inorder to work well!!!
 Anyone help in this regard.

 Thanks in advance

Do you have transaction isolation level set to REQUIRED in your Bean's XML descriptor?

Leo

Hi,

Pretty sure Leo is on the right track here-- you should declare transaction REQUIRED. If the transaction attribute in the deployment descriptor is SUPPORTS, then the method invocation will only occur within a transaction if the calling bean is already within a transaction context. I think this is why the rollback is not occuring.
