IsInTransaction Method

Indicates whether the current object is executing in a transaction.

Applies To

ObjectContext Object

Syntax

objectcontext.IsInTransaction

The objectcontext placeholder represents an object variable that evaluates to the ObjectContext associated with the current object.

Return Values

True
The current object is executing within a transaction.

False
The current object is not executing within a transaction.

Remarks

You can use this method to make sure that an object that requires a transaction never runs without one. For example, if a component that requires a transaction is improperly configured in the MTS Explorer, you can use this method to determine that the object doesn't have a transaction. Then you can return an error to alert the user to the problem, or take whatever action is appropriate.
