Description Liangent 2009-12-16 05:07:47 UTC 
Although it may be a little bit complex, it can be useful.
Comment 1 Roan Kattouw 2009-12-16 10:11:45 UTC 
Please explain what you mean by "transaction support".
Comment 2 Liangent 2009-12-18 04:52:38 UTC 
Just like transaction support of DBMS. Follow [[ACID]] rules when clients query data and/or edit pages if they request to start transactions.
Comment 3 Max Semenik 2009-12-18 07:27:19 UTC 
This bug makes no sense. All database write queries are transactioned wherever appropriate.
Comment 4 Liangent 2009-12-18 10:41:07 UTC 
I'm not talking about low-level database queries. I mean something like:

api.php?action=transaction&operation=start
// ...
// any requests here are [[ACID]]
// ...
api.php?action=transaction&operation=commit
Comment 5 Roan Kattouw 2009-12-18 10:49:31 UTC 
This would be a complex feature to support, for little gain (AFAICT).
