isInTransaction Method

[This product will work only on Windows NT 4.0 versions and earlier. For Windows 2000 and later, see COM+ (Component Services).]

Indicates whether the current object is executing in a transaction.

Provided By

Context class

boolean isInTransaction ( );

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.
