EJB 3.0 Core Spec (Transaction and BMT)
On Page 342 Core EJB Specs:
If the client request is associated with a transaction T1, and the instance is not associated with a transaction, the container suspends the client抯 transaction association and invokes the method with an unspecified transaction context. The container resumes the client抯 transaction association (T1) when the method (together with any associated interceptor methods) completes. This case can never happen for a message-driven bean or for the invocation of a web service endpoint method of a stateless session bean.
Doubt:
Message driven beans can have Transaction attribute specified as Not Supported or Required. In the case of Not Supported - the above can happen?.
Also, why is not applicable for invocation of a web service endpoint method of a stateless session bean and applicable for a stateless session bean call?
Please guide,
Shivani
