Hi, Just to kill my curiosity - why do not you want to use Blueprint? Does it decrease performance / increase usage of resources significantly? If so, do you have any profiling results for that?

This should provide information on how to use it (thinking of "runnning outside of a container"). As such it should be usable without requiring Blueprint -- Except that you have to do the work "manually" that the Blueprint integration may do for the Blueprint components. Disclaimer: I am not an expert on JTA, but I sincerely hope that this is not requiring Blueprint. Hope this helps.

Juli 2013 10:01 An: user@aries.apache.org Betreff: Re: Aries JTA, JPA, and SCR Hi Tim WHile I agree that DS does not have proxying capability (and should not have such a biest), I would expect that code making explicit use of OSGi JTA functionality (even implemented by the Aries JTA bundles) is very well usable with DS. In fact, IIRC we once used Aries JTA in our commercial product without using Blueprint.

This is one of the primary drivers for choosing blueprint over DS. There are annotations for managing transactions in Aries blueprint. These are contained in the latest (1.0.1) release of org.apache.aries.transaction.blueprint. You can enable annotation support with the following: <blueprint xmlns="http://www.osgi.org/xmlns/blueprint/v1.0.0" xmlns:tx="http://aries.apache.org/xmlns/transactions/v1.2.0";> <tx:enable-annotations/> <bean id="top" class="org.apache.aries.transaction.pojo.AnnotatedPojo"/></blueprint> I hope this helps!

Or is this only possible via Blueprint? Furthermore is there any Annotation support for the managing transactions or must this be done via the Blueprint XML? CheersPhilipp
