In CMT If I set Requires_New transactional attribute and throws system exception then client gets which exception?

[chintanpatel.it]

For example, If I call EJB method from web context. EJB has Container Managed Transaction(CMT) with Local Bean and its method has required_new transactional attribute. What does client gets if EJB method throws System Exception? I mean, transaction is rolled back. So, Does client gets EJBTransactionRolledBackException or simply EJBException?

Thanks in advance.

Since the bean starts a new transaction, the client's transaction will not be rolled back. The client gets EJBException. Check out section 14.3.1 table 15.

Thank you for your answer.

I have one more question. Is there any way to know status of EJB's transaction in above mentioned case?

Yes, you should call getRollbackOnly method on SessionContext object if it's CMT.
