Chapter 19 Working with Sybase Unwired Orchestrator
The Complex Activity is a composite of atomic activities and implies drill-down capabilities. Complex activities can exit normally, after a Timeout event, after a Fault event or after a Compensate event.
Unwired Orchestrator defines the following exits (with custom symbols) on the Complex Activity:
The Complex Activity can define the following types of event handlers that you create by assigning the corresponding type of event to a flow. The type of the flow is automatically determined by the type of the event (stereotype):
| Handler | Created by |
|---|---|
| Fault handler: to manage or catch the Fault event that happened during the execution of the Complex Activity (created by a Fault activity) | Event with <<Fault>> stereotype + Business Error flow type |
| Compensation handler: to manage or catch the Compensation event that happened during the execution of the Complex Activity (created by a Compensate activity) | Event with <<Compensation>> stereotype + Compensation flow type |
| Timeout handler: to manage the timeout expiration | Event with <<Timeout>> stereotype + Timeout flow type |
Iteration is a cycle involving the repetitive execution of one or more activities until a condition is met. Unwired Orchestrator defines iteration as a Complex Activity loop object.
Since a Loop is a Complex Activity, it can be ended:
