3.3.1.1 Interface with the Core Transaction Manager Facet of the Local Transaction Manager

As specified in Prerequisites/Preconditions (section 1.5), an implementation of the TIP interoperability provider role MUST establish itself as a protocol extension to the core transaction manager of an OleTx transaction manager. (More information is specified in [MS-DTCO] section 3.2.1.5.) When it becomes a protocol extension to the OleTx transaction manager, the TIP interoperability provider acquires the following capabilities:

  • The capability to signal events on the Core Transaction Manager Facet of the OleTx transaction manager and to access data elements that are maintained by it.

  • The capability of receiving events from the Core Transaction Manager Facet of the OleTx transaction manager.

Through the above capabilities, the TIP interoperability provider becomes a facet of the OleTx transaction manager. (More information is specified in [MS-DTCO] section 1.3.3.3.)
