Re: outrigger recovery

Thank you, John, for answering this open-end question.

Let's focus on the transaction first.

I understand the part about not recover the transaction that is not yet in
PREPARED state.  Those transaction can be safely disgarded.

For those prepared transactions, I assume that the participant will call
getState() of the manager as indicated in the spec.  Then it decides
whether to rollforward or rollback depending on the result of getState.
Do you happen to remember which class does this?

For the committed transaction, the transaction is done.  We do not need to
recover that transaction.  Is that your assumption, too?

thank you.
