dectxn uses the aquarium AOP framework for wrapping transactions around methods.

To install the aquarium gem.

Installing the dectxn plugin (see above) will create config/initializers/dectxn_config.rb.

Entries in this file can be used to declaratively apply transactional support to method calls.

For example the following entry will apply required transactional semantics to calls to all methods beginning "my_" in instances of the Account class.
