TransactionFactory (Spring Framework 4.3.30.RELEASE API)

All Known Implementing Classes:
JtaTransactionManager, SimpleTransactionFactory, WebLogicJtaTransactionManager, WebSphereUowTransactionManager
```
public interface TransactionFactory
```
Strategy interface for creating JTA Transaction objects based on specified transactional characteristics.
The default implementation, SimpleTransactionFactory, simply wraps a standard JTA TransactionManager. This strategy interface allows for more sophisticated implementations that adapt to vendor-specific JTA extensions.

Transaction createTransaction(String name,
                              int timeout)
                       throws NotSupportedException,
                              SystemException
```
    Create an active Transaction object based on the given name and timeout.
    Parameters:
    name - the transaction name (may be null)
    timeout - the transaction timeout (may be -1 for the default timeout)
    Returns:
    the active Transaction object (never null)
    Throws:
    NotSupportedException - if the transaction manager does not support a transaction of the specified type
    SystemException - if the transaction manager failed to create the transaction
  - supportsResourceAdapterManagedTransactions
```
boolean supportsResourceAdapterManagedTransactions()
```
    Determine whether the underlying transaction manager supports XA transactions managed by a resource adapter (i.e. without explicit XA resource enlistment).
    Typically false. Checked by AbstractMessageEndpointFactory in order to differentiate between invalid configuration and valid ResourceAdapter-managed transactions.
