The javadocs provide a little bit more information: https://jakarta.ee/specifications/transactions/2.0/apidocs/jakarta/transaction/Status.html#STATUS_ACTIVE

"A transaction is associated with the target object and it is in the active state. An implementation returns this status after a transaction has been started and prior to a Coordinator issuing any prepares, unless the transaction has been marked for rollback."

Thanks. So "an implementation" is really something like "an implementation of Transaction#getStatus(), TransactionManager#getStatus(), UserTransaction#getStatus() and TransactionSynchronizationRegistry#getTransactionStatus()", i.e. there is no difference in the semantics of the status codes returned by these methods, correct?
