#Advanced Scope control

There are a number of useful ways to interact with the scopes created by the Transaction Control Service

## Determining the current scope

The Transaction Control Service has methods which can be used to work out whether a scope is in effect:

* <code>txControl.activeScope();</code> - When <code>true</code> there is a scope in effect and resources can be 
accessed. The scope may, or may not, be transactional. When false there is no current scope and
<code>txControl.getCurrentContext();</code> will return <code>null</code>.

* <code>txControl.activeTransaction()</code> - When <code>true</code> there is a transactional scope in 
effect and resources can be accessed transactionally. When false there may, or may not, be a "No Transaction"
scope in effect.

Note that <code>assert txControl.activeTransaction();</code> can be used to enforce the presence of a
transaction. This is equivalent to a "Mandatory" transaction in Spring or Java EE.

## Avoiding rollback

When setting up a transaction certain exception types can be marked as not triggering rollback:

    txControl.build()
        .noRollbackFor(MyCustomException.class)
        .required(() -> {
                // A MyCustomException thrown here will not trigger rollback
            });


## Nesting a transaction

Nesting a Transaction can easily be managed using <code>requiresNew()</code>


    txControl.required(() -> {
            // Do some work...
            
            return txControl.requiresNew(() -> {
                    // Do some more work
                });
        });

## Suspending a transaction

Suspending a Transaction can easily be managed using <code>notSupported()</code>

    txControl.required(() -> {
            // Do some work...
            
            return txControl.notSupported(() -> {
                    // Do some more work
                });
        });
