Comprehensive Example

Transaction integrity, message communication, and resource access are the major requirements of an Online-Transaction-Processing (OLTP) application.

This section provides a code sample that illustrates the ATMI transaction, buffer management, and communication routines operating together with SQL statements that access a resource manager. The example is borrowed from the ACCT server that is part of the BEA Tuxedo banking application (bankapp) and illustrates the CLOSE_ACCT service.

The example shows how the set transaction statement (line 49) is used to set the consistency level and access mode of the transaction before the first SQL statement that accesses the database. (When read/write access is specified, the consistency level defaults to high consistency.) The SQL query determines the amount to be withdrawn in order to close the account based on the value of the ACCOUNT_ID (lines 50-58).

tpalloc() allocates a buffer for the request message to the WITHDRAWAL service, and the ACCOUNT_ID and the amount to be withdrawn are placed in the buffer (lines 62-74). Next, a request is sent to the WITHDRAWAL service via a tpcall() call (line 79). An SQL delete statement then updates the database by removing the account in question (line 86).

If all is successful, the buffer allocated in the service is freed (line 98) and the TPSVCINFO data buffer that was sent to the service is updated to indicate the successful completion of the transaction (line 99). Then, if the service was the initiator, the transaction is automatically committed. tpreturn() returns TPSUCCESS, along with the updated buffer, to the client process that requested the closing of the account. Finally, the successful completion of the requested service is reported on the status line of the form.

After each function call, success or failure is determined. If a failure occurs, the buffer allocated in the service is freed, any transaction begun in the service is aborted, and the TPSVCINFO buffer is updated to show the cause of failure (lines 80-83). Finally, tpreturn() returns TPFAIL and the message in the updated buffer is reported on the status line of the form.

Note: When specifying the consistency level of a global transaction in a service routine, take care to define the level in the same way for all service routines that may participate in the same transaction.
