Description
bool 
sesam_settransaction ( int isolation_level, int read_only )
     Returns: TRUE if the values are valid, and the
     settransaction() operation was successful,
     FALSE otherwise.
    
     sesam_settransaction() overrides the default
     values for the "isolation level" and "read-only" transaction
     parameters (which are set in the SESAM configuration file), in
     order to optimize subsequent queries and guarantee database
     consistency. The overridden values are used for the next
     transaction only.
    
     sesam_settransaction() can only be called
     before starting a transaction, not after the transaction has been
     started already.
    
     To simplify the use in PHP scripts, the following constants have
     been predefined in PHP (see SESAM handbook for detailed
     explanation of the semantics):
     
Table 1. 
       Valid values for "Isolation_Level"
       parameter
      
| Value | Constant | Meaning | 
|---|
| 1 | SESAM_TXISOL_READ_UNCOMMITTED | Read Uncommitted | 
| 2 | SESAM_TXISOL_READ_COMMITTED | Read Committed | 
| 3 | SESAM_TXISOL_REPEATABLE_READ | Repeatable Read | 
| 4 | SESAM_TXISOL_SERIALIZABLE | Serializable | 
Table 2. 
       Valid values for "Read_Only" parameter
      
| Value | Constant | Meaning | 
|---|
| 0 | SESAM_TXREAD_READWRITE | Read/Write | 
| 1 | SESAM_TXREAD_READONLY | Read-Only | 
     The values set by sesam_settransaction() will
     override the default setting specified in the SESAM configuration file.
    
     
| Example 1. Setting SESAM transaction parameters | 
<?phpsesam_settransaction (SESAM_TXISOL_REPEATABLE_READ,
 SESAM_TXREAD_READONLY);
