                 Key: ODE-730
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ODE-730
             Project: ODE
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: BPEL Runtime
            Reporter: Sean Ahn
            Assignee: Sean Ahn


Explanation:

1. An instance is created from a process definition. The instance executed to 
the point where it will invoke an external service after a <receive>.
2. A new version of the process is deployed. In the new version, the <invoke> 
is removed and so as the partner link definition.
3. A message that correlates to the instance arrives. The <receive> is executed 
and the instance invokes the external service. The definition of the partner 
links have been changed for the 'process'. The <invoke> on this instance does 
not find the parter link definition anymore.

Options:

1. All the other states of the process with a specific version, such as the 
bpel logics, are embedded to the instance when the instance is serialized. We 
can serialize the definition of the partner links with the instance.
2. When a message arrives, using the service map, we find the target process 
first. Then, it becomes too late when we correlate the process instance using 
the correlation key values. Reverse the logic here so that if the message is 
not an instance creating one, find the instance first and resove the 
process(with the right version).
3. The active processes map contains all processes(with at least one active 
process instance) by the process id(with version). When creating the 
BpelRuntimeContext, look up the active processes map and bind the 
BpelRuntimeContext with the correct process version. When an <invoke> is called 
on the instance, the correct process version will be used by the 
BpelRuntimeContext.
