Interface Summary

Interface	Description
Status	The Status interface defines static variables used for transaction status codes.

Transaction	The Transaction interface allows operations to be performed against the transaction in the target Transaction object.
TransactionManager	The TransactionManager interface defines the methods that allow an application server to manage transaction boundaries.
TransactionSynchronizationRegistry	This interface is intended for use by system level application server components such as persistence managers, resource adapters, as well as EJB and Web application components.
UserTransaction	The UserTransaction interface defines the methods that allow an application to explicitly manage transaction boundaries.

Exception Summary
