Class Description

 rooTrans corresponds to ooTrans class

 The non-persistence-capable class rooTrans represents a transaction object,
 which you can use to start and terminate a series of transactions against
 an Objectivity/DB federated database.

rooTrans()
 ctor

~rooTrans()
 dtor.

Bool_t start(Int_t mode,Int_t waitOption,Int_t indexMode)
 Parameters:
    mode - concurrent access policy for the newly started transaction.
          Objectivity/DB uses this policy to determine whether the locks
          requested or held by this transaction are compatible with those
          of other transactions:

          o  Specify kooNoMROW (the default) to enable the exclusive
             concurrent access policy. This policy allows multiple
             transactions to lock the same container for read, but
             prevents concurrent read and upgrade locks on a container.

          o  Specify kooMROW to enable the multiple readers, one writer
             (MROW) concurrent access policy. This policy allows multiple
             transactions to lock the same container for read while one
             transaction locks it for update.

    waitOption - lock-waiting behavior for the newly started transaction:

          o  Specify kooTransNoWait (the default) to use the default
             lock-waiting option currently in effect for the Objectivity
             context.

          o  Specify kooNoWait or 0 to turn off lock waiting for the
             transaction.

          o  Specify kooWait to cause the transaction to wait indefinitely
             for locks.

          o  Specify a timeout period of n seconds for the transaction,
             where n is an integer in the range 1 <= n<= 14400. If n is
             less than 0 or greater than 14400, it is treated as kooWait.

          Lock waiting does not apply to MROW read transactions.
          Therefore, any waitOption value you specify is ignored when you
          set the openMode parameter to kooMROW.

    indexMode -   policy for updating indexes after creating or modifying
          objects with indexed fields:

          o  Specify kooInsensitive (the default) to update all applicable
             indexes automatically when the transaction commits.

          o  Specify kooSensitive to update all applicable indexes
             immediately after an indexed field is created or modified.
             You should use this value for a transaction that modifies
             indexed fields and then performs predicate scans on the
             relevant indexes.
          o  Specify kooExplicitUpdate to update all applicable indexes
             only by explicit calls to the rooUpdateIndexes global function.

Bool_t abort(Int_t mode)
 Terminates the currently active transaction on this transaction object,
 and aborts (does not apply) changes to the federated database.

 Parameter mode - determines what happens to the transaction's open
 object references and handles after the transaction is aborted:

  - Omit this parameter (or specify kooHandleToNull) to convert the
    pointers in open object references and handles to null.

  - Specify kooHandleToOID to convert the pointers to object identifiers
    (OIDs). Some of these OIDs might be invalid after the aborted
    transaction, however, so your application should avoid reusing these
    invalid OIDs.

Bool_t commit()
 Terminates the currently active transaction on this transaction object,
 and commits all changes to the database.

Bool_t commitAndHold(Int_t mode)
 Parameter mode - mode in which update locks are to be treated:

    -  Omit this parameter (or specify oocNoDowngrade) to preserve all
       locks held by the transaction as is.
    -  Specify oocDowngradeAll to change all locks to read locks
       (MROW read if the transaction is an MROW transaction, and normal
       read locks otherwise).

 Checkpointing a transaction terminates it, commits all changes to the
 database, and implicitly starts a new transaction. By default, all locks
 acquired during the transaction are preserved as is.

Bool_t upgrade()
 Identifies the application containing this transaction object as a
 special-purpose upgrade application for converting objects after schema
 evolution.

 You must call this member function before starting the first (and only)
 transaction in an upgrade application. This transaction must be an update
 transaction (that is, the transaction must open the federated database
 for update) and it must also call the rooFDObj::upgradeObjects member
 function to initiate the upgrade process.

 Object conversion is the process of making existing persistent objects
 consistent with class definition changes introduced by schema evolution.
 Certain schema evolution operations affect how instances of a class should
 be laid out in storage.

 After you perform such operations, existing objects of the changed classes
 are rendered out-of-date until they are converted to their new
 representations. In general, affected objects are converted automatically
 when they are accessed after schema evolution. However, some schema
 changes require that you convert objects explicitly using an upgrade
 application to ensure referential integrity.

Bool_t isActive()
 Returns kTRUE if this transaction object is active; otherwise kFALSE.

void begin()
 This member function calls start with default parameter values.

void checkpoint()
 Checkpointing a transaction terminates it, commits all changes to the
 database,and implicitly starts a new transaction.
