Transactions in IBatis.NET

[Jakub Malý]

Hi, 

I am not sure how to work with transactions correctly

This is a working piece of code:

IDaoManager DaoManager = ... 
...
IDalSession dalSession = DaoManager.BeginTransaction();
DaoManager.CommitTransaction();
dalSession = DaoManager.BeginTransaction();

I thought this:

IDalSession dalSession = DaoManager.BeginTransaction();
dalSession.CommitTransaction();
dalSession = DaoManager.BeginTransaction();

But it throws DataAccessException: "DaoManager could not invoke BeginTransaction(). A DaoSession is already started. Call CommitTransaction() or RollbackTransaction first."

What is the difference between the two pieces? Is there a way to correctly commit when holding IDalSession and not DaoManager?

Also, what is the difference between IDalSession.Complete and IDalSession.CommitTransaction?
