From what I have managed to gather so far is that jta works by requesting callbacks with the JDBC driver, and this means you don't need to explicitly pass around any connection object representing the transaction, the transaction is associated with the thread in which you're running.

Does this mean that it is even an error to pass the connection around ???

No, it means it's an error to try and use the transactional calls on the connection. If you're using JTA, I understand that you should not call the transactional methods on JDBC.

In short, if you want to use JTA with Torque, you must use Torque.getConnection() to get a connection, then pass that connection to all torque methods while the transaction is in progress, then finally, call Torque.closeConnection(conn) when you are done.

Practically, you need to make sure that while your JTA transaction is active, torque doesn't try and perform any transactions on a second connection in the same thread. If you do you will get an explicit exception at the place where the second connection is used, so finding these bugs is pretty simple.

To sum up: yes you can use JTA and Torque together, just make sure you use one connection per thread.
