Re: [jta-dev] Definition of active?

So if we replace those two usages of "active" with "active (or marked for rollback)" in the specification and similarly for the three usages of active in the javadoc text for TransactionSynchronizationRegistry (not forgetting to changing the throws text to: "Throws:  IllegalStateException - a transaction is neither active nor marked for rollback") then will that be sufficient?

There is only one usage of active in the JTA sense of the word in main specification (in the section you referenced):

"The jakarta.transaction.TransactionScoped annotation provides the ability to specify a standard Jakarta Context Dependency Injection scope to define bean instances whose lifecycle is scoped to the currently active Jakarta Transactions transaction."

All of the other usages of the term are referring to CDI contexts [1] which are different from the JTA transaction context.


I see one more use of "active" that could use clarification:

"The object with this annotation will be associated with the current active Jakarta Transactions transaction when the object is used."  If I'm "in" a method marked @Transactional, and there is a "Jakarta Transactions transaction" that has been marked for rollback, and I manipulate the TransactionSynchronizationRegistry from within this method—isn't this legal?  If so, then "active" here must also mean "active or marked for rollback" I think.

Best,
Laird
