Field Summary

Fields

Modifier and Type	Field and Description
static String	ERROR_RETURN_CODE Special return code to be interpreted by the Process Engine.
static String	RETRY_RETURN_CODE Special return code to be interpreted by the Process Engine.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
String	execute(T process) Executes this Action's business logic working on the given BusinessProcessModel.
Set<String>	getTransitions() Accesses all possible return codes of this Action.

Field Detail

RETRY_RETURN_CODE

static final String RETRY_RETURN_CODE

Special return code to be interpreted by the Process Engine. If an Action's execute method returns RETRY_RETURN_CODE it tells the process engine, that it currently is unable to fulfill it's logic and that execution should be scheduled for a later time. The retry return code can not be overridden by any transition mapping.

Constant Field Values

ERROR_RETURN_CODE

static final String ERROR_RETURN_CODE

Special return code to be interpreted by the Process Engine. If an Action's execute method returns ERROR_RETURN_CODE it tells the process engine, that an internal error occurred. The process will be marked accordingly. The default behavior (ending process with error), can be overridden on process definition level by specifying an onError node to continue with and/or on action level by specifying a transition for return code error.

Method Detail

execute

String execute(T process)
        throws RetryLaterException,
               Exception

Executes this Action's business logic working on the given BusinessProcessModel.

Parameters:

process - The process context to work on.

Returns:

the return code as stated in the process definition. This code is used the process engine by the process engine to determine the next actions.

Throws:

Exception

RetryLaterException

getTransitions

Set<String> getTransitions()

Accesses all possible return codes of this Action. This method is used by the process engine to validate a process definition. Furthermore it can be used by (graphical) editors to access all return codes which have to mapped in transitions.

Returns:

all possible return codes of this Action
