问题
I am creating a web application that is going to send messages using NServiceBus, and also write to a database. I want this to be an atomic operation, i.e. a transaction, so I wrap the code in a using new TransactionScope() statement.
When configuring NServiceBus you can call the IsTransactional-method. When do I pass 'false' to this method, and when is 'true' appropriate?
回答1:
IsTransactional(true) mean that all incoming messages will be processed within a transactionscope

For sends (outgoing messages) you need to create your own transaction scope to make sure that you're consitent with your database. Usually it's a good idea to move the actual processing (like writing to the database) to backend processes. If you do that NServiceBus will handle things like retries, exception management etc for you.
