EntityTransaction interface

Use the EntityTransaction interface to demarcate transactions.


Purpose

To demarcate a transaction, you can use the EntityTransaction interface, which is associated with an entity manager instance. Use the EntityManager.getTransaction method to retrieve the EntityTransaction instance for the entity manager. Each EntityManager and EntityTransaction instance are associated with the Session. You can demarcate transactions with either the EntityTransaction or Session. Methods on the EntityTransaction interface do not have any checked exceptions. Only runtime exceptions of type PersistenceException or its subclasses result.

For more information about the EntityTransaction interface, see the API documentation.
