This function begins a transaction.

Syntax

BOOL CeBeginTransaction(
  HANDLE hSession,
  CEDBISOLATIONLEVEL isoLevel
);

Parameters

• hSession
  [in] Handle to the session. This handle must be returned from either the CeCreateSession (EDB) or the CeGetDatabaseSession (EDB) function.

• isoLevel
  [in] Isolation level to use for this transaction.

Return Value

TRUE indicates success. FALSE indicates failure. To get extended error information, call GetLastError. The following table shows possible values.

Remarks

Once a transaction is changed, all changes to all databases that were opened with the same session are not committed or rolled back until you call the CeEndTransaction (EDB) function.

If the session is already in a transaction, this function fails because it is not possible to create a nested transaction.

EDB supports the following transaction isolation levels:

• CEDB_ISOLEVEL_DEFAULT or CEDB_ISOLEVEL_READCOMMITTED
• CEDB_ISOLEVEL_REPEATABLEREAD
• CEDB_ISOLEVEL_SERIALIZABLE
