The transaction method is executed within the context of the active  
record class for the excution of the all transactions.  
Ex  
Account.transaction do  
account1.deposit(100)  
account2.withdraw(100)  
end

But i want to execute the transaction within the context of more than  
on active record class then what would be the solution? How should i  
specify the context?

Plz suggest me.  
Thanks.
