*                      when using the extension helper's       *

****************************************************************
When using the extension helper's
TransactionControl.handleException API, the application
server's transaction manager might not be notified of
rollback-only status for the transaction, in which case the
transaction is not rolled back.
Problem conclusion
Extension helper code was fixed to properly notify the
transaction manager of rollback-only status when the
TransactionControl.handleException API is used.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion
in cumulative fix 5.0.2.17. Please refer to the recommended
