Thanks for the suggestion, Feng. Did you mean Alpha check if the compensation method finished by periodically query @Status method?
If I'm not misunderstanding the code, Alpha doesn't wait for the TxCompensatedEvent after CompensateCommand sent. That means, the CompensateCommand-TxCompensatedEvent communication is already async in nature. So we can take advantage of this async nature and no need to add more event types and statuses. I think we can add an attribute to indicate compensation method is async on @Compensable like this: @Compensale(compensationMethod="rollbackBar", compensationAsync=true) public void bar(arg1, arg2, arg3) { // ... } public void rollbackBar(arg1, arg2, arg3, TransactionContextWithParent localTx) { rollbackAsync() .onsuccess(() -> { omega.txCompensated(localTx); }) } Zheng Feng <zh.f...@gmail.com> 于2019年7月22日周一 下午5:14写道: > In term of the compensation method, I think I had discussed with Willem > before that it could introduce the @Status annotation for the alpha server > to query the compensation status.
