XA Introduction
Berkeley DB can be used as an XA-compliant resource manager. The XA implementation is known to work with the Tuxedo(tm) transaction manager.
The XA support is encapsulated in the resource manager switch db_xa_switch, which defines the following functions:
__db_xa_close Close the resource manager.
__db_xa_commit Commit the specified transaction.
__db_xa_complete Wait for asynchronous operations to
complete.
__db_xa_end Disassociate the application from a
transaction.
__db_xa_forget Forget about a transaction that was heuristically
completed. (Berkeley DB does not support heuristic
completion.)
__db_xa_open Open the resource manager.
__db_xa_prepare Prepare the specified transaction.
__db_xa_recover Return a list of prepared, but not yet
committed transactions.
__db_xa_rollback Abort the specified transaction.
__db_xa_start Associate the application with a
transaction.
The Berkeley DB resource manager does not support the following optional XA features:
The Tuxedo System is available from BEA Systems, Inc.
