The TxConnectionManager is a JBoss ConnectionManager implementation for jca adapters implementing LocalTransaction and XAResource support. It implements a ConnectionEventListener that implements XAResource to manage transactions through the Transaction Manager. To assure that all work in a local transaction occurs over the same ManagedConnection, it includes a xid to ManagedConnection map. When a Connection is requested or a transaction started with a connection handle in use, it checks to see if a ManagedConnection already exists enrolled in the global transaction and uses it if found. Otherwise a free ManagedConnection has its LocalTransaction started and is used. From the BaseConnectionManager2, it includes functionality to obtain managed connections from a ManagedConnectionPool mbean, find the Subject from a SubjectSecurityDomain, and interact with the CachedConnectionManager for connections held over transaction and method boundaries. Important mbean references are to a ManagedConnectionPool supplier (typically a JBossManagedConnectionPool), and a RARDeployment representing the ManagedConnectionFactory. This connection manager has to perform the following operations: 1. When an application component requests a new ConnectionHandle, it must find a ManagedConnection, and make sure a ConnectionEventListener is registered. It must inform the CachedConnectionManager that a connection handle has been given out. It needs to count the number of handles for each ManagedConnection. If there is a current transaction, it must enlist the ManagedConnection's LocalTransaction in the transaction using the ConnectionEventListeners XAResource XAResource implementation. Entry point: ConnectionManager.allocateConnection. written. 2. When a ConnectionClosed event is received from the ConnectionEventListener, it must reduce the handle count. If the handle count is zero, the XAResource should be delisted from the Transaction, if any. The CachedConnectionManager must be notified that the connection is closed. Entry point: ConnectionEventListener.ConnectionClosed. written 3. When a transaction begun notification is received from the UserTransaction (via the CachedConnectionManager, all managedConnections associated with the current object must be enlisted in the transaction. Entry point: (from CachedConnectionManager) ConnectionCacheListener.transactionStarted(Transaction, Collection). The collection is of ConnectionRecord objects. written. 5. When an "entering object" notification is received from the CachedConnectionInterceptor, all the connections for the current object must be associated with a ManagedConnection. if there is a Transaction, the XAResource must be enlisted with it. Entry point: ConnectionCacheListener.reconnect(Collection conns) The Collection is of ConnectionRecord objects. written. 6. When a "leaving object" notification is received from the CachedConnectionInterceptor, all the managedConnections for the current object must have their XAResources delisted from the current Transaction, if any, and cleanup called on each ManagedConnection. Entry point: ConnectionCacheListener.disconnect(Collection conns). written.
