Move ChainedTransactionManager from spring-data commons to spring-tx [SPR-13735]

[spring-projects-issues]

Attila Király opened SPR-13735 and commented

Spring-data common has a hidden gem: ChainedTransactionManager.
It is not mentioned in the reference documentation only in javadoc.
There is a good blog entry about it which describes why it is useful.

ChainedTransactionManager is in a package which doesn't have any dependency on anything else in spring-data. Basically it only depends on org.springframework.transaction from spring-tx.

Considering that it is a pretty general functionality, could it be moved (and documented) into spring-tx itself?

With ChainedTransactionManager being deprecated in Spring Data, we have no intention to move this feature in the core framework. Thanks for the suggestion, in any case.
