Sure, especially in this case, but in general, I'm trying to make a little change as possible as a first step.

I still need to somehow handle exceptions I guess. Is there a general good practice for this? I.e what to do with exceptions in agents or embedded participants? Let them go up the stack and the engine will handle them gracefully, or wrap them in a specific exception, or catch them? What happens with uncaught or runtime exceptions ? On a related note, I'd also like to know if I can (how) use the decision tables features. I can rather easily configure the decision service ( engine.getContext().add(service); ) but how about the decision participant? Since it's not an embedded one. I suspect I can wrap it or reimplement it against the embedded participant interface ... ? I was also wondering if the decision tables could be loaded from the classpath (Ive seen other things being loadable with a resource: prefix in openwfe but didnt see this for the decision tables, at first glance) Cheers and thanks again for any tip/info ;) greg --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "OpenWFE users" group.
