/** ManagedConnection instance represents a physical connection

*
* <p>A ManagedConnection instance provides access to a pair of
* interfaces: <code>javax.transaction.xa.XAResource</code> and
* <code>javax.resource.spi.LocalTransaction</code>.
*
* <p><code> XAResource</code> interface is used by the transaction
* manager to associate and dissociate a transaction with the underlying
* EIS resource manager instance and to perform two-phase commit
* protocol. The ManagedConnection interface is not directly used
* by the transaction manager. More details on the XAResource
* interface are described in the JTA specification.
*
* <p>The LocalTransaction interface is used by the application server
* to manage local transactions.
