Subject: RE: [bpel4people] ISSUE BP-2: Defer Activation Time is missing from HT protocol message
I believe that Mark Ford may not have made
a mistake when he suggested that the protocol for WS-HT specifies only an exact
time for DeferActivationTime, while B4P allows either <for> or
<until> for the corresponding <deferActivation> element. When the duration form of deferAction is
used (<for>), there should be a single point in time when the timer for
the duration starts. It is the B4P process that should start the timer,
figure out when the end time is going to be, and then send the end time for the
deferral to the task. If that is true, then the previously
accepted resolution for issue 2 is valid. We may, however, want to say
explicitly in B4P that the people activity is responsible for computing an
absolute time from the duration, rather than leaving it up to the task. Michael Rowley |
