public class BcfTransaction : IBcfUndoRedoItem

Public Class BcfTransaction
	Implements IBcfUndoRedoItem

The BcfTransaction type exposes the following members.

	Name	Description
	BcfTransaction	Transaction infrastructure. Do not call this method. To begin a transaction use BcfDataSet.BeginTransaction. To begin a sub transaction use the current transactions BeginSubTransaction method. Initializes a new instance of the BcfTransaction class.

	Name	Description
	AddItem	Adds the IBcfUndoRedoItem to the transactions compensation repository.
	BeginSubTransaction	Begins a sub transaction.
	BeginSubTransaction(BcfTransactionBuilder)	Begins a sub transaction.
	Commit	Commits all changes within this transaction.
	Compute	Executes all necessary operations to bring the BcfCell.Values up to date. The validation tags will not be updated.
	Compute(Boolean)	Executes all necessary operations to bring the BcfCell.Values up to date.
	EnforceRelationConstraints	Updates the internal indexes and throws ArgumentException if any foreign or unique key constraint is violated.
	EnterDumbMode	Sets all computed cells and validations to 'must recompute' and disables the internal change tracking until next call of Compute (implicit by BeginSubTransaction or Commit) or Rollback. When DumbMode ends all computed cells and validations will be recomputed. Very useful when loading data into an empty BcfDataSet.
	Equals	Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetHashCode	Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Redo	Infrastructure. This method supports the infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.
	Rollback	Discards the transaction and restores the data from state before the transaction started.
	Rollback(Exception)	Discards the transaction and restores the data from state before the transaction started.
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Undo	Infrastructure. This method supports the infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

	Name	Description
	CompensationRepository	Gets the compensation repository.
	DataSet	Gets the BcfDataSet the transaction belongs to.
	IsCommitted	Gets a value indicating whether this instance is committed.
	IsCurrent	Gets a value indicating whether this instance is current.
	IsDiscarded	Gets a value indicating whether this instance is discarded.
	IsSubTransaction	Gets a value indicating whether this instance is sub transaction.

Any update operation on a data object is wrapped in a transaction. Setting a value or adding a row will create a transaction, execute the operation and commit the transaction. Before every begin and end of any transaction or subtransaction the outstanding calculations and validations will be processed. To improve performance and get a nice undo repository when more than one cell update is required, it is recommended to use transactions explicit. Begin a try-block immediately after the transaction is created. The transaction commit should always be the last instruction inside the try-block. Rollback failed transactions.
