This section explains the syntax of the API functions which implement the TX interface. The text in this section is quoted from 5. C Reference Manual Pages which is the syntax reference section of the X/Open CAE Specification Distributed TP: The TX (Transaction Demarcation) Specification published by X/Open Company Limited.

Additional notes on using these functions from UAPs used with the OpenTP1 are enclosed in symbols <<>>.

The syntax of the following functions is explained below:

• tx_begin - Begin a global transaction
• tx_close - Close a set of resource managers
• tx_commit - Commit a global transaction
• tx_info - Return global transaction information
• tx_open - Open a set of resource managers
• tx_rollback - Roll back a global transaction
• tx_set_commit_return - Set commit_return characteristic
• tx_set_transaction_control - Set transaction_control characteristic
• tx_set_transaction_timeout - Set transaction_timeout characteristic

TX interface functions (tx_~) can be used in the UAPs for both TP1/Server Base and TP1/LiNK.
