ADO.NET in a Nutshell

This class encapsulates a client-initiated database transaction. If you have an open connection, you can start a transaction by calling the OleDbConnection.BeginTransaction( ) method, which returns an OleDbTransaction object. The OleDbTransaction class implements the System.Data.IDbTransaction interface, and its members are described in that section of the reference.

You can also use the Begin( ) method to start a nested transaction (a transaction within the bounds of another transaction). This returns a second OleDbTransaction instance, which can be used to manage the nested transaction. The actions in the nested transaction can be committed or rolled back independently; however, if you roll back the parent transaction, the actions in the nested transaction are also rolled back (even if you committed the nested transaction).

public sealed class OleDbTransaction : MarshalByRefObject , System.Data.IDbTransaction, IDisposable { // Public Instance Properties public OleDbConnection Connection {get; } public IsolationLevel IsolationLevel {get; } // implements System.Data.IDbTransaction // Public Instance Methods public OleDbTransaction Begin ( ); public OleDbTransaction Begin (System.Data.IsolationLevel isolevel ); public void Commit ( ); // implements System.Data.IDbTransaction public void Rollback ( ); // implements System.Data.IDbTransaction // Protected Instance Methods protected override void Finalize ( ); // overrides object }
