TRANSEND Statement (DataBasic) (m618703+transend_s.htm)
Commits a transaction.
TRANSEND {transaction-information} [THEN statement(s) | ELSE statement(s)]
transaction-information
Optional text to be saved in the transaction-end record. It can be used
to identify a particular transaction or iteration of a repetitive transaction.
transaction-information can be text within double quotes or a
variable.
If you are using Transaction Logging, transaction-information can be used when listing a clean log or during a TL-RESTORE.
You can use transaction-information only if Transaction Logging is installed and enabled. transaction-information is not used in Transaction Handling.
statement(s) Either a THEN or an ELSE clause (or both). A statement must be included. The THEN clause is executed if the commit is successful. The ELSE clause is executed if the transaction end fails. One cause of such a failure would be when no transaction is active.
If no transaction-information parameter is supplied, the file-name and item-id containing the program performing the transaction along with the time and date is substituted.
Item locks that are released within a transaction boundary are held until successful execution of the TRANSEND statement.
Text is only written to the clean log if there is something in the transaction. So if you do TRANSTART then TRANSEND with nothing between, the TRANSTART/TRANSEND is not written to the log.
