How the ATG Order flow manages a transaction

See more about ATG  Tx management @ http://tips4ufromsony.blogspot.com/2012/05/atg-how-to-use-transaction-manager.html

Most of the ATG Commerce form handlers extend atg.commerce.order.purchase.PurchaseProcessFormHandler. The transaction management pattern in order flow is implemented through this form handler’s beforeSet, afterSet, and handler methods.

The transaction will be started @ beforeSet method and is ended @ afterSet method.

In general, the design pattern for updating an order is as follows:
  1. Acquire lock-manager write lock on profile id from the /atg/commerce/order/LocalLockManager
  2. Begin Transaction
  3. Synchronize on the Order object.
  4. Modify Order
  5. Call ((OrderImpl) pOrder).updateVersion(); --> atg.commerce.order.InvalidVersionException is thrown based on this
  6. Call OrderManager.updateOrder()
  7. Release Order synchronization
  8. End Transaction
  9. Release lock-manager write lock on profile id from the /atg/commerce/order/LocalLockManager
       If you extend atg.commerce.order.purchase.PurchaseProcessFormHander, then steps 1,2,8 & 9 are done for you in the beforeSet and afterSet method implementations. Steps 3&7 are no longer strictly necessary, but are still good practice. Steps 3-7 should be performed manually in your application code.

ATG - basic concepts of ATG

This blog is for the ATG beginners to get some basic overview about ATG. I just given the ATG concepts as a list of numbered points for the ease of understanding. 1. At the framework level, ATG is a               java based application platform for hosting web-based applications, as well as RMI accessible business components,               with an ORM layer,               a component container,               an MVC framework,               and a set of tag libraries for JSP. 2. Art Technology Group(ATG)'s Dynamo Application Server (DAS) is a Java EE compliant application server. DAS is no longer actively developed as ATG recommends using other Java EE applications servers for its products such as BEA WebLogic, JBoss or IBM WebSphere. 3. Prior to ATG 2007, JHTML was used instead of JSP for view purpose. J...

Search Facets - how to create a new search facets in ATG Search

A Facet is a search refinement element that corresponds to a property of a commerce item type. ATG supports the search result refinement using the Faceted Search concept. Read more about facted search @  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faceted_search . Facet can either be ranges or specific values. Each facet is stored in the RefinementRepository as a separate refineElement repository item. Facets are divided into Global and Local facets. Global facets apply to all the categories and local facets only to the category in which they are created. For example Price/Brand can be considered as the facets that are common for all skus and New Release/Coming Soon can be considered as the facets that are specific to Physical Media products like Vidoe/DVD/Blue-ray/Books. We can use the ATG BCC - Merchandising UI to create facets. The Faceting Property depends on the meta-properties defined in the \atg\commerce\search\product-catalog-output-config.xml ( the def...
