Working with transactions

[Jef_E]

Hi,

I am building a product configurator and to finalize it I am using so transactions to make it possible to do some undo actions.

But for one step I'm  not certain. My configurator works bottom-up so at a given piont parts are created. Is it wise to wrap this in a single transaction to undo? what will happen will the undo also undo the file creation?

Hi, it depends on if you save each new created part after it's created or create them within an assembly and save them only when user hits save manually.

If the parts are already saved, the only thing that will happen is they'll be excluded from the assembly.

I'd personally exclude the parts' creation from the transaction or wrap them in their own.

I agree, it's wiser (for undo purposes) to exclude the part generation from the assembly placement transaction.
