Difference between @Transactional and @TransactionAttribute

Question

I started persistence coding and I came across annotations such as @Transactional and @TransactionAttribute. I understand the basic functionality of these two annotations and also that they can be used at both class level and at the method level. What I would like to understand better is the difference between these two annotations. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Answer 1

@TransactionAttribute is for EJB3 beans.

@Transactional is for POJOs (for example Seam, Spring/Hibernate).
