      <p> 
        When using transactions with dbstl, you must call the dbstl
        transaction functions instead of the corresponding methods
        from the Berkeley DB C or C++ transaction API. That is, you
        must use <code class="methodname">dbstl::begin_txn()</code>,
        <code class="methodname">dbstl::commit_txn()</code> and
        <code class="methodname">dbstl::abort_txn()</code> in order to
        begin/commit/abort transactions. 
    </p>
      <p> 
        A container can be configured to use auto commit by setting
        the <a href="../api_reference/C/envset_flags.html#envset_flags_DB_AUTO_COMMIT" class="olink">DB_AUTO_COMMIT</a> flag when the environment or database
        handle is opened. In this case, any container method that
        supports auto commit will automatically form an independent
        transaction if the method is not in an external transactional
        context; Otherwise, the operation will become part of that
        transaction. 
    </p>
      <p>
        You can configure the flags used internally by dbstl when
        it is creating and committing these independent transactions
        required by auto commit. To do so, use the
        <code class="methodname">db_container::set_txn_begin_flags()</code>
        and/or
        <code class="methodname">db_container::set_commit_flags()</code>
        methods. 
    </p>
      <p> 
        When a transaction is committed or aborted, dbstl will
        automatically close any cursors opened for use by the
        transaction. For this reason, any iterators opened within the
        transaction context should not be used after the transaction
        commits or aborts.
    </p>
      <p> 
        You can use nested transactions explicitly and externally,
        by calling <code class="methodname">dbstl::begin_txn()</code> in a
        context already operating under the protection of a
        transaction. But you can not designate which transaction is
        the parent transaction. The parent transaction is
        automatically the most recently created and unresolved
        transaction in current thread. 
    </p>
      <p>
        It is also acceptable to use explicit transactions in a
        container configured for auto commit. The operation performed
        by the method will become part of the provided external
        transaction. 
    </p>
      <p>
        Finally, transactions and iterators cannot be shared among
        multiple threads. That is, they are not free-threaded, or
        thread-safe.
