Isn't this how SQL Server hosts the CLR? That is, I believe that all state is stored in the database and rolled back if a deadlock is detected. As a matter of fact, I believe you're not even allowed to use locks in CLR code running in SQL Server.

I'm currently working on a C library implementing the ideas on "Composable Memory Transactions" paper.

The library is designed to be easy to use (very small API), non intrusive (it doesn't require garbage collector nor special memory management for you shared variables) and very portable (it depends on Glib only, and not any particular thread implementation).

On http://libcmt.sourceforge.net you can find more info.

There are currently alpha source packages available, easy to compile with ./configure, make, make install (a Windows installer is planned too).

Best regards,
Duilio Protti.

Ok this might be a silly question, how does the use of the "volatile" keyword compare with the concept of STM?
