/** The <CODE>XAConnectionFactory</CODE> interface is a base interface for the
* <CODE>XAQueueConnectionFactory</CODE> and
* <CODE>XATopicConnectionFactory</CODE> interfaces.
*
* <P>Some application servers provide support for grouping JTS capable
* resource use into a distributed transaction (optional). To include JMS API transactions
* in a JTS transaction, an application server requires a JTS aware JMS
* provider. A JMS provider exposes its JTS support using an
* <CODE>XAConnectionFactory</CODE> object, which an application server uses
* to create <CODE>XAConnection</CODE> objects.
*
* <P><CODE>XAConnectionFactory</CODE> objects are JMS administered objects,
* just like <CODE>ConnectionFactory</CODE> objects. It is expected that
* application servers will find them using the Java Naming and Directory
* Interface (JNDI) API.
*
*<P>The <CODE>XAConnectionFactory</CODE> interface is optional. JMS providers
* are not required to support this interface. This interface is for
* use by JMS 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.
