Chapter 17 Working with WS-BPEL 2.0

Flow activity

The flow activity is used to specify one or more activities to be performed concurrently. You can define explicit control dependencies between nested child activities using a <<link>> stereotype within a flow activity.

Syntax:

<flow standard-attributes>
   standard-elements
   <links>?
   <link name="NCName" />+
   </links>
   activity+
</flow>

Mapping

You design a flow activity using a synchronization object.

You can also design a flow activity using a composite process with a <<Flow>> stereotype, when the flow activity has specific properties.
