Read the Source, Luke.  ;)

I've done that a couple of times.  What you have to do, is write a data
manager class and register it with the current transaction (by calling
transaction.get().join(your_data_manager_instance)).  Then, when
you get to transaction.commit() or transaction.abort(), your data
manager will be notified accordingly.

See transaction.interfaces.IDataManager.
