The typical definition of an atomic task or process is one that cannot be decomposed further. This is vague and subject to interpretation.

This example uses the Java Data Objects (JDO) Binding. Notice that all the
code is Java. You will not find a
database sub-language in this example. The part in blue relates to the animation of transparent
persistence (new window). Note that the
same code would used for object-relational
mapping products (new window).
Transparent persistent interfaces work with both object database or
object-relational mapping products.
import javax.jdo.*;
import java.util.Collection;
PersistenceManagerFactory pmf; // assume this variable is set
pmf.setConnectionUserName(" ");
pmf.setConnectionPassword(" ");
pmf.setConnectionURL("database URL");
PersistenceManager pm = pmf.getPersistenceManager();
Transaction txn = pm.currentTransaction();
txn.begin();
Extent people = pm.getExtent(Person.class, false);
