/**
* The {@code XASession} interface extends the capability of {@code Session} by adding access to a Jakarta Messaging provider's
* support for the Java Transaction API (JTA) (optional). This support takes the form of a
* {@code javax.transaction.xa.XAResource} object. The functionality of this object closely resembles that defined by
* the standard X/Open XA Resource interface.
*
*
* An application server controls the transactional assignment of an {@code XASession} by obtaining its
* {@code XAResource}. It uses the {@code XAResource} to assign the session to a transaction, prepare and commit work on
* the transaction, and so on.
*
*
* An {@code XAResource} provides some fairly sophisticated facilities for interleaving work on multiple transactions,
* recovering a list of transactions in progress, and so on. A JTA aware Jakarta Messaging provider must fully implement this
* functionality. This could be done by using the services of a database that supports XA, or a Jakarta Messaging provider may choose
* to implement this functionality from scratch.
*
*
* A client of the application server is given what it thinks is a regular Jakarta Messaging {@code Session}. Behind the scenes, the
* application server controls the transaction management of the underlying {@code XASession}.
*
*
* The {@code XASession} interface is optional. Jakarta Messaging providers are not required to support this interface. This interface
* is for use by Jakarta Messaging providers to support transactional environments. Client programs are strongly encouraged to use the
* transactional support available in their environment, rather than use these XA interfaces directly.
