Programming Guide

This chapter describes the sm_tm_command function and the transaction commands (listed alphabetically) that can be called using this function.

Each reference page includes the following information:

• Syntax—Lists the command and its parameters.

• Description—Gives an explanation of the command.

• Sequence—Lists other transaction manager commands that might be needed before or after this command.

• Events—Lists the transaction request events and slice events that can be generated with a command. This information is useful when writing a transaction event function to change the processing in a request or when modifying the transaction model. For information on writing transaction event functions, refer to Chapter 32, "Writing Transaction Event Functions," in the Application Development Guide.

Some requests refer to the following transaction attributes:

To test the value of transaction attributes, use the library functions sm_tm_inquire, sm_tm_pinquire, or sm_tm_pcopy. To set transaction attributes, use the library functions sm_tm_iset and sm_tm_pset
