Just one small point... In all my (admittedly brief compared to some) travels through workflow land, I've never had a workflow that was specifically tree. They all end up forming a graph at some point. One could argue that you can just have jump points from one branch to another, but in my ex

Since my needs are for web container persistence, let me make a suggestion in that area. An object called WorkflowPath could be created with configurable values sucked up from a file. The values could be some kind of tree, like a decision/process tree. The WorkflowPath object would be stored in

Thats fine. You would like the state of the workflow saved in spite of a server failure. The truth is we should figure out both situations anyway for both types of requirements: 1) storing state in a database 2) storing state in the web container - Original Message - From: "Geir Magnusso

Persistent storage is an option too. I was hoping, however to limit calls through the enterprise parts and database. You could argue that it belongs there because the database is the central location holding all data and information and therefore should hold workflow info, especially in the face

Can I ask why you don't go with persistant storage, like a rdbms? I have been thinking about workflow recently as well, although not specifically w/in struts, and I believe that for the general solution, where someone can come back a long time later and resume, or be it an automated process, pers

Another tag works well for me :-) - we have our own customised versions of struts tags to do this. I submitted a Bugzilla to make tags more "granular" so that individual bits of behaviour (like generating the name )could be overriden. Unfortunately :-( it didn't make it into Struts 1.0 and I thi

I hear what you are saying Niall, but again, I'd sooner introduce a new tag like 'html2' before I'd change existing tags/property names - especially now that struts 1.0 is out and feels "more formally defined" if you know what I mean. Too bad there was no way to label something 'depcrecated' in a
