It was allowed in the 1.0 spec, and has been taken out in the 1.1 spec, along with transaction isolation levels.
I believe it's an issue that the spec will revisit once the issue around distributed transactions and 2-phase commit are resolved.
 
Can someone else more knowledgeable about this issue please comment?

Subject: Bean managed vs Container-Managed transaction

Hi,

I was looking at the ejb specs and in section 11.3.1 it says that

A Session Bean can be designed with bean-managed transaction demarcation or with container-man-aged

transaction demarcation. (But it cannot be both at the same time.)

An Entity Bean must always be designed with container-managed transaction demarcation.

 

I don't understand why is it not allowed for Entity beans to be able to use bean managed transaction demarcation

thanks

Sushil
