Subject: RE: [wsbpel] Issue - 2 - A subfunction proposal
See
below
This
is something I have been worried about but I decided not to address it in
the first proposal. I try to only bite off so many problems at once.
:)
Personally I think the best thing to do would be to allow subfunctions to
have qnames. I don't understand why the BPEL spec uses ncnames.
qnames are so much nicer.
If we
don't like qnames then we could always add a second attribute to function calls
that specify an identifier for the file the function is supposed to have come
from.
If we
don't like that then we can just do collision detection and either raise an
error or use a solution such as Java's classpath. I must admit that I'm not a
big fan of using classpaths because I think they lead to surprises and I don't
like surprises.
I just
picked a word and don't feel any attachment to it.
I am a
HUGE fan of being able to specify in, out and in/out parameters. I think
this is a great idea. The only reason I didn't put it into the proposal is,
again, I wanted to start with something simple.
I'm
not sure what you mean. In what context are you referring to
XPATH?
Again,
I'm not sure in what context you are referring to
XPATH.
I
suspect we will all sleep better if functions aren't allowed to be start
activities. Although I could think of some ways we could make it possible I'm
not sure it's worth the effort.
