Examples

The following code example demonstrates the use of this class.

// A CRM Worker
[Transaction]
public ref class Account : public ServicedComponent

    // A data member for the account file name.

    String^ filenameValue;

        {
            filenameValue = value;
        }
    }

    // A boolean data member that determines whether to commit or abort the 
    // transaction.
private:
    bool allowCommitValue;

public:

    // Debit the account,

        }
    }

Remarks

Each clerk is associated with a compensator, which is called back to perform actions during the two-phase commit of the transaction.

Constructors

Clerk(String, String, CompensatorOptions)	Initializes a new instance of the Clerk class.
Clerk(Type, String, CompensatorOptions)	Initializes a new instance of the Clerk class.

Properties

LogRecordCount	Gets the number of log records.
TransactionUOW	Gets a value representing the transaction unit of work (UOW).

Methods

Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object)
Finalize()	Frees the resources of the current Clerk before it is reclaimed by the garbage collector.
ForceLog()	Forces all log records to disk.
ForceTransactionToAbort()	Performs an immediate abort call on the transaction.
ForgetLogRecord()	Does not deliver the last log record that was written by this instance of this interface.
GetHashCode()	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object)
GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
MemberwiseClone()	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
ToString()	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)
WriteLogRecord(Object)	Writes unstructured log records to the log.
