Well, I think implementing this would be great. I'd like to know:
- whether WorkManager could use our thread pool gbean or if we should
replace uses of the thread pool gbean with WorkManager or some other
relationship
- whether the J2CA WorkManager should use the jsr-23 WorkManager or
vice versa or neither
Our transaction manager is rather aggressively single threaded, so
currently any jsr-237 implementation is going to have to not propagate
transactions between threads. We need to look at the advanced
transaction services spec (activity service?) to see what they have to
say about this also. I'd be delighted to talk more about this
issue.... next week ;-)
thanks

You can assume WorkManager to be a container managed thread pool.
Using WorkManager one can schedule work workManager.schedule(Work
work) and schedule would get a thread from container managed thread
pool and process the work (Work implements java.lang.Runnable). It has
capability to add dependency of work completion on other work. Work
has life cycle and user can define listener for listening to those
work life cycle events.

I saw only a very early draft of this JSR, which IMO had the fatal
defect of not explaining the semantics of transactions when using the
thread pool. Has the current version of the spec added any discussion
of transactions?
So far this specification do not state anything for managing
transaction. But i think we need to enhance that part. I personally
believe in both approach standardize first then implement Or
Innovate/implement first and then standardize, In our case we need to
follow later :)...
To avoid security message probably i would start using my personal
email ID for this email list.
Thanks,

Can you give us some more detail on what JSR-237 requires from the app
server?
Also, the footer block below needs to go! :)
Thanks,
