Great stuff Clinton. Somehow, I'm surprised. :)Absolutely. Your Java source will not have to change, only the transaction manager configuration. You can choose to use a JTA or EXTERNAL transaction manager type for working with declarative transactions (depends on your server, configuration etc.). When using local transactions, you use the JDBC tranaction manager.
In all cases you follow the same try/finally start/commit/end paradigm. Calling commit with a JTA transaction may or may not commit depending on the existing context, whereas EXTERNAL will NEVER commit and depends completely on an external transaction manager.
(My iBatis project will commence soon ... can't wait ...)
Kind regards
