Platform SDK: Transaction Server

ITransactionContextEx::Abort Method

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

Aborts the current transaction.

Provided By

ITransactionContextEx Interface

HRESULT ITransactionContextEx::Abort ( );

Return Values

S_OK
The transaction was aborted.

E_FAIL
The TransactionContextEx object isn't running under a MTS process. This could happen if the TransactionContextEx component's Registry entry has been corrupted.

E_UNEXPECTED
An unexpected error occurred.

Remarks

When a base client calls Abort, all objects that participated in the transaction are automatically deactivated. Any database updates made by those objects are rolled back. The transaction is completed on return from this method. If another call is made on the TransactionContextEx object after the TransactionContextEx object has returned from a call in which it called the Abort method, a new transaction is started.
