/**
 * XASession provides access to a JMS provider's support for JTA (optional) and the associated Session. This support
 * takes the form of a <CODE>javax.transaction.xa.XAResource</CODE> object. The functionality of this object closely
 * resembles that defined by the standard X/Open XA Resource interface.
 *
 * <P>
 * An application server controls the transactional assignment of an JMSXASession by obtaining its XAResource. It uses
 * the XAResource to assign the session to a transaction; prepare and commit work on the transaction; etc.
 *
 * <P>
 * An XAResource provides some fairly sophisticated facilities for interleaving work on multiple transactions;
 * recovering a list of transactions in progress; etc. A JTA aware JMS provider must fully implement this functionality.
 * This could be done by using the services of a database that supports XA or a JMS provider may choose to implement
 * this functionality from scratch.
 *
 * <P>
 * A client of the application server is given what it thinks is a regular JMS Session. Behind the scenes, the
 * application server controls the transaction management of the underlying JMSXASession.
