Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:  All users of IBM WebSphere Application      *
  *                  Server V8.5.0 and V8.5.5 who make           *

  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: OpenJPA Audit transactional listeners   *
  *                      are added too late to observe a begin   *
  *                      event.                                  *

  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  OpenJPA has an Audit feature (@Auditable) to allow
  applications to listen for certain transactional state changes
  of a JPA entity.  When a JTA transaction is used, the order of
  the transaction processing is such that these audit features
  are registered with the transaction too late to observe a
  transaction begin event.
  

Problem conclusion

• With this fix, code has been added to OpenJPA to ensure that
  it registers with a JTA transaction earlier enough to observe
  a transaction begin event.
  
  The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for
  inclusion in Service Level (Fix Pack) 8.5.5.3 of WebSphere
  Application Server version 8.5.5.
