Description

New component: OSWorkflow JBI Component
I attached a first very basic approach of an OSWorkflow service engine as example.

Compart Systemhaus GmbH is granting all remaining rights to the ASF.

To build a service unit:
You need to have in your SU's resources:

• osworkflow.xml
• workflows.xml
• xbean.xml
• your custom workflow xml file referenced inside workflows.xml

Then just write Conditions, Functions, etc. as java classes or use other OSWorkflow logic as you need.

Important to note:
The transient vars contain some important objects for your use...

Key - Value
OSWorkflow.KEY_IN_MESSAGE - the received normalized "in" message which started the workflow
OSWorkflow.KEY_EXCHANGE - the received message exchange which started the workflow
OSWorkflow.KEY_ENDPOINT - the instance of OSWorkflowEndpoint which processes the workflow

The message received is not answered until you do it inside the workflow. Also the processing of the message exchange / in message content as well as sending an answer has to be done from inside your workflow.
