That's correct. To diagram:
Function 1 calls
|
V
Function 2 calls
|
V
Function 3, which fails
|
V
Function 3 is rolled back
|
V
Function 2 is rolled back
|
V
Function 1 is rolled back
While this automatic tranactioning and "All succeed or fail together"
functionality is sometimes useful, its often also a major annoyance.
Changing it is on the "todo" list, but poses some major technical
challenges.
