Interface XAConnection

All Superinterfaces:
  PooledConnection

    public interface XAConnection

extends PooledConnection

An object that provides support for distributed transactions. An `XAConnection` object may be enlisted in a distributed transaction by means of an `XAResource` object. A transaction manager, usually part of a middle tier server, manages an `XAConnection` object through the `XAResource` object.
