Hi
I'm somewhat under the impression, that the the tagged value @andromda.transaction.type and isn't propagated consistently into the generated sources.
I'm using Milestone 3, together with MaigicDraw.
As of EJB spec, the transaction type can be defaulted on the class level of all bean types, and set explictly for all interface methods + create, remove and finders.
I'm currently looking at the following issues in M3:
a.) I've got a session bean, with two methods, one with transaction type=Required, the other with transaction type=Supports. But AndroMDA M3 fails to place the XDoclet-Comment @ejb.transaction into the method.
b.) On the class level, the tag is called @andromda.ejb.transactionType in MagicDraw. (as oposed to andromda.transaction.type on the method level - which might or might not be the cause of the problem mentioned above) For session beans, the comment for the tagged value states, that it should default to the value 'required' (with lower case 'r'!!!). But not explicitely setting it to 'Required' inserts the line
* @ejb.transaction type="Supports" //default transaction type
into the class comment.
c.) I got an entity Bean too, with some finders and creators. For finders, everything is ok, the attribute is placed into the @ejb.finder tag in the class comment, (incidentally, the andomda name for it is @andromda.ejb.transactionType again) but for the create methods, its back to zero again, the contents of @andromda.transaction.type is not forwarded into XDoclets @ejb.transaction attribute as required.
d.) On top of it, @andromda.transaction.type is also offered for methods stereotyped as <<SelectMethod>>, but selectors are no interface methods, and do not support transactiontyping, AFAIK. Doesn't harm, but puzzles.
To conclude: it seems a likely, that there was some bad mixup because of @andromda.ejb.transactionType <> @andromda.transaction.type.
Or did I get anything wrong?
