Session close and Transaction commit

Hi,

I have en EJB that call another EJB that opens a session using ThreadLocal pattern and after do some work getting other session. That looks like this:

Code:

public void methodA(Object obj)
{
  methodB(obj.getChild()); // in another EJB
  session = ThreadLocalSession.currentSession();
  delete(obj)
  session.flush();
  ThreadLocalSession.closeSession();
}

public void methodB(Object obj)
{
  session = ThreadLocalSession.currentSession();
  delete(obj)
  session.flush();
  ThreadLocalSession.closeSession();
}

I'm closing the Session in the methodB but I want that both delete operations be part of the same transaction. I'm using JTA transaction with CMT. The question is :
The Session.close() commits the transaction ? Or the container do this ?

If you are using JTA in an EJB environment, the container handles your transactions for you, using the declarative transaction settings you declare in your deployment descriptor. At least that is the usual way.

Even if I close the session ?

I supposed that the container manages with if I use transaction.commit()...

So, I don

No with CMT, tx will be commited by the EJB if neither:
- ctx.setRollbackOnly() as been set
- runtime exception is throwned through the EJB layer
