Chapter 20. The Transaction Manager
20.1. About JTA Transaction Manager Lookup Classes
In order to execute a cache operation, the cache requires a reference to the environment's Transaction Manager. Configure the cache with the class name that belongs to an implementation of the
TransactionManagerLookup interface. When initialized, the cache creates an instance of the specified class and invokes its getTransactionManager() method to locate and return a reference to the Transaction Manager.
| Class Name | Details |
|---|---|
| org.infinispan.transaction.lookup.DummyTransactionManagerLookup | Used primarily for testing environments. This testing transaction manager is not for use in a production environment and is severely limited in terms of functionality, specifically for concurrent transactions and recovery. |
| org.infinispan.transaction.lookup.JBossStandaloneJTAManagerLookup | The default transaction manager when JBoss Data Grid runs in a standalone environment. It is a fully functional JBoss Transactions based transaction manager that overcomes the functionality limits of the DummyTransactionManager. |
| org.infinispan.transaction.lookup.GenericTransactionManagerLookup | Used to locate transaction managers in most Java EE application servers. If no transaction manager is located, it defaults to DummyTransactionManager. |
| org.infinispan.transaction.lookup.JBossTransactionManagerLookup | Locates a transaction manager within a JBoss Application Server instance. |
