Integration of hibernate transaction in jta transaction manager

Question

In my standalone java application, jms and hibernate are used for fulfilling my requirements. I used the JTA transaction manager for the transaction management purposes. Can i enlist the XAResource for the hibernate and jms in the jta transaction to ensure the atomicity of my application.

Answer 1

Yes, it's possible. Called sometimes two-phase commit, it synchronises transactions between multiple resources.

First of all make sure you're RDBMS supports and has the feature turned on. In PostgreSQL, for example, this means setting the max_prepared_transactions configuration parameter from postgresql.conf to something above 0 .

Also, make sure the JMS queue you're using support this transaction method. In Wildfly this means adding transaction="xa" on pooled-connection-factory .
