Quote:

If a system exception occurs within a transaction, the EJB container rolls back the transaction. However, if an application exception is thrown within a transaction, the container does not roll back the transaction.

now CaveatEmptorFacadeBean looks like:

Code:

public Bid bidForItem(Long userId, Long itemId, BigDecimal bidAmount) throws RemoteException {
try {
    //...
    HibernateUtil.commitTransaction();
}
finally {
    HibernateUtil.closeSession();
}

I think it should look like:

Code:

bidAmount) throws RemoteException {
try {
    //...
    HibernateUtil.commitTransaction();
}
catch (InfrastructureException e) { // or any another base application   level one
   sessionContext.setRollbackOnly(); // to tell container to rollback current transaction
}
finally {
    HibernateUtil.closeSession();
}

I don't know if hibernate Transaction.rollback() inside CMT rollbacks/marks current CMT transaction with sessionContext.setRollbackOnly()?

Code:

catch (InfrastructureException e) { // or any another base application level one
   sessionContext.setRollbackOnly(); // to tell container to rollback current transaction
   throw e;
}

Transaction.rollback() does this.
