      • getTransactionContainer

        public PropCnr getTransactionContainer()
        Returns the transaction property container for the GyroTransaction.
        Returns:
        The property container.
      • getFocusEngine

        public IFocusEngine getFocusEngine()
        Returns the focus engine associated with this Gyro transaction.
        Returns:
        The focus engine, or null for none.
      • getRollbackFocus

        public IFocusComp getRollbackFocus()
        Returns the focus that is to be set due to the rollback.
        Returns:
        The focus component, null for none.
      • finalize

        protected void finalize()
                         throws java.lang.Throwable
        Make sure we're always disposed of if garbage collected.
        Overrides:
        finalize in class java.lang.Object
        Throws:
        java.lang.Throwable - In case finalize doesn't perform too well.
      • dispose

        public void dispose()
        Disposes of the instance. This method should be called when the transaction is canceled.

        Note: Calling this method will cancel commit and rollback possibilities!

      • begin

        public void begin()
        Begins the transaction.
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalStateException - If the state of the transaction is not "ready", i.e. the transaction has begun, been committed or rolled back. The exception is also thrown if the property container has been disposed of.
      • commit

        public void commit()
        Commits the work done in the property container.
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalStateException - If the transaction state is not in "begin" state.
      • rollback

        public IFocusComp rollback()
                            throws PropException
        Rolls back the work done in the transaction and returns the component who's focus must be restored to.
        Returns:
        The component who had its focus changed first during the transaction and needs to receive focus (perhaps when e.g. the session busy state is released), or null if no focus change occurred.
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalStateException - If the transaction state is not in "begin" state.
        PropException - If the rollback operation failed.
