JDBC Type 4 Driver 2.0 Programmer's Reference (SQL/MX 2.x)
is located at the following URL: http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs81/index.html.
This section discusses features of BEA WLS 8.1 that apply to use with the Type 4 driver.
Compatibility
The Type 4 driver is compatible with BEA WLS version 8.1 or later. The Type 4 Driver is not tested
with the later versions of BEA WLS 8.1.
Transactions
The Type 4 Driver can be used under the control of BEA WLS 8.1 to manage transactions.
The WLS transaction manager:
sets auto commit to false by calling the setAutoCommit(false) method on a Type 4
driver connection.
■
completes the driver connection's transaction by executing the rollback() or
commit() method associated with the connection.
■
Global Transactions
To enable the Type 4 driver to participate in a global/XA transaction, you must enable Honor Global
Transactions check box when Nonstop SQL/MX DataSource is created through the WLS 8.1 web
console. WLS 8.1 coordinates the transaction so that a commit or rollback is effective for the entire
transaction.
A WLS 8.1 JDBC sample is provided with the Type 4 driver product for demonstrating two phase
commit protocol.
