<p>
The <span class="emphasis"><em>txn</em></span> <span class="bold"><strong>abort</strong></span>
command causes an abnormal termination of the transaction.
</p>
<p>
The log is played backward, and any necessary recovery operations are
performed. After recovery is completed, all locks held by the
transaction are acquired by the parent transaction in the case of a
nested transaction, or released in the case of a non-nested
transaction. As is the case for <span class="emphasis"><em>txn</em></span> <span class="bold"><strong>commit</strong></span>, applications that require strict
two-phase locking should not explicitly release any locks.
</p>
<p>
In the case of nested transactions, aborting the parent transaction
causes all children of that transaction to be aborted.
</p>
<p>
After <span class="emphasis"><em>txn</em></span> <span class="bold"><strong>abort</strong></span>
has been called, regardless of its return, the <span class="bold"><strong>txn</strong></span> handle may not be accessed again.
</p>
<p>
The <span class="emphasis"><em>txn</em></span> <span class="bold"><strong>abort</strong></span>
command returns 0 on success, and in the case of error, a Tcl error is
thrown.
