Peter Newcomb commented on FLUME-935:
-------------------------------------
Absolutely correct on (1), will be fixed with next patch.
As for (2), that's my understanding of the expected commit/rollback semantic.
Of course, given Flume's general at-least-once semantics, I believe that what
it really means is that all events involved in the transaction _must_ be
retried, but only that they _should_ or _may_ be prevented from continuing
downstream.

>
> Correctly executing or checking the state transitions for channels and
> transactions is nontrivial. It would be helpful to have a correct
> implementation of each that can be used either directly or as a reference
> when creating new channels or clients of channels.
> Specifically, on the client side it would be nice to package the try {
> begin() ... commit() } catch { rollback() } finally { close() } code, with
> all the appropriate exception propagation and logging code, so that it need
> not be repeated constantly.
> On the channel side, it'd be nice to have a packaged implementation of the
> implied ThreadLocal semantics of the Transaction class, along with
> Preconditions checking to make sure that clients follow the try { begin() ...
> commit() } catch { rollback() } finally { close() } pattern.
