/** <p>The XAResource interface is a Java mapping of the industry standard
* XA interface based on the X/Open CAE Specification (Distributed
* Transaction Processing: The XA Specification).
*
* <p>The XA interface defines the contract between a Resource Manager
* and a Transaction Manager in a distributed transaction processing
* (DTP) environment. A JDBC driver or a JMS provider implements
* this interface to support the association between a global transaction
* and a database or message service connection.
*
* <p>The XAResource interface can be supported by any transactional
* resource that is intended to be used by application programs in an
* environment where transactions are controlled by an external
* transaction manager. An example of such a resource is a database
* management system. An application may access data through multiple
* database connections. Each database connection is enlisted with
* the transaction manager as a transactional resource. The transaction
* manager obtains an XAResource for each connection participating
* in a global transaction. The transaction manager uses the
* <code>start</code> method
* to associate the global transaction with the resource, and it uses the
* <code>end</code> method to disassociate the transaction from
* the resource. The resource
* manager is responsible for associating the global transaction to all
* work performed on its data between the start and end method invocations.
*
* <p>At transaction commit time, the resource managers are informed by
* the transaction manager to prepare, commit, or rollback a transaction
* according to the two-phase commit protocol.</p>
