Using XA Transactions

Download ODBC driver

Overview

The Microsoft ODBC Driver for SQL Server, starting from version 17.3, provides support for XA transactions with the Distributed Transaction Coordinator (DTC) on Windows, Linux, and macOS. The XA implementation on the driver side enables the client application to send serial operations (such as start, commit, rollback a transaction branch, and so on) to the Transaction Manager (TM). And then the TM will communicate with the Resource Manager (RM) according to these operations. For more information about the XA Specification and the Microsoft implementation for DTC (MS DTC), see How It Works: SQL Server DTC(MSDTC and XA Transactions).

The XACALLPARAM Structure

The XACALLPARAM structure defines the information required for an XA transaction manager request. It's defined as follows:

typedef struct XACallParam {
    unsigned int sizeParam;
    int          operation;
    XID          xid;
    int          flags;
    int          status;
    unsigned int sizeData;
    unsigned int sizeReturned;
} XACALLPARAM, *PXACALLPARAM; 

sizeParam
Size of the XACALLPARAM structure. This size excludes the size of the data following XACALLPARAM.

operation
The XA operation to be passed to the TM. Possible operations are defined in xadefs.h.

xid
Transaction branch identifier.

flags
Flags associated with the TM request. Possible values are defined in xadefs.h.

status
Return status from the TM. See xadefs.h header for possible return statuses.

sizeData
Size of the data buffer following XACALLPARAM.

sizeReturned
Size of data returned.

To make a TM request, the SQLSetConnectAttr function needs to be called with attribute SQL_COPT_SS_ENLIST_IN_XA and a pointer to the XACALLPARAM object.

SQLSetConnectAttr(hdbc, SQL_COPT_SS_ENLIST_IN_XA, param, SQL_IS_POINTER);  // XACALLPARAM *param

Code Sample

The following example shows how to communicate with the TM for XA transactions and execute different operations from a client application. If the test is run against Microsoft SQL Server, the MS DTC needs to be properly configured to enable XA transactions. The XA definitions can be found in the xadefs.h header file.
