Class semper.payment.PaymentTransaction

public class PaymentTransaction
extends Object
implements PurseServices
Class for the primary objects implementing payment services PaymentTransaction is the primary object in the payment service blocks for carrying out transactions. Each active transaction corresponds to a PaymentTransaction object. The payment manager has a list of all active transactions. The constructor of each PaymentTransaction object is responsible for notifying the payment manager of its creation. Each PaymentTransaction object creates a PaymentTransactionRecord object. At the end of the transaction or at the end of a session (even if the transaction is unfinished), the PaymentTransaction object is removed while the PaymentTransactionRecord is not. They stay in the archive for a longer term. The adapter of a new payment system Xyz will define XyzTransaction as a subclass of this class. So for now, we'll leave it as an abstract class. In case we need transaction records for non-purse transactions (e.g. payment manager transactions) in the payment service block, we'll later make it non-abstract.
