Develop components to use transactions

The way that applications use transactions depends on the type of application component, as follows:

• A session bean can either use container-managed transactions (where the bean delegates management of transactions to the container) or bean-managed transactions (component-managed transactions where the bean manages transactions itself).

• Entity beans use container-managed transactions.

• Web components (servlets) and application client components use component-managed transactions.

Use the following tasks to develop WebSphere application components that use transactions:

Tasks

• Configure transactional deployment attributes
