Identify the use and behavior of the MessageDrivenContext interface methods.

The container provides the message-driven bean instance with a MessageDrivenContext. This gives the message-driven bean instance access to the instance's context maintained by the container. The MessageDrivenContext interface has the following methods:

  • The setRollbackOnly method allows the instance to mark the current transaction such that the only outcome of the transaction is a rollback. ONLY instances of a message-driven bean with container-managed transaction (CMT) demarcation can use this method.

  • The getRollbackOnly method allows the instance to test if the current transaction has been marked for rollback. ONLY instances of a message-driven bean with container-managed transaction (CMT) demarcation can use this method.

  • The getUserTransaction method returns the javax.transaction.UserTransaction interface that the instance can use to demarcate transactions, and to obtain transaction status. ONLY instances of a message-driven bean with bean-managed transaction (BMT) demarcation can use this method.

  • The getCallerPrincipal method is inherited from the EJBContext interface. Message-driven bean instances MUST NOT call this method (caller is unknown for MDB).

  • The isCallerInRole method is inherited from the EJBContext interface. Message-driven bean instances MUST NOT call this method (caller is unknown for MDB).

  • The getEJBHome and getEJBLocalHome methods are inherited from the EJBContext interface. Message-driven bean instances MUST NOT call these methods (MDB has no home/local-home interfaces, as well do not have component interfaces).

package javax.ejb;

public interface MessageDrivenContext extends EJBContext {
}

public interface EJBContext {
	EJBHome getEJBHome();
	EJBLocalHome getEJBLocalHome();
	java.security.Principal getCallerPrincipal();
	boolean isCallerInRole(String roleName);
	UserTransaction getUserTransaction() throws IllegalStateException;
	void setRollbackOnly() throws IllegalStateException;
	boolean getRollbackOnly() throws IllegalStateException;
}
