Subject: [Fwd: [wsbpel] Issue - 82.3 - AP 1.1 definition to be refactoredas a profile.]
Hi all, I have modified the suggested change that is about issue 99 below to address the ambiguity Monica had raised about the original wording. After discussing this with her off-line, we realized that the discussion about that was heading into 99 territory and the right thing to do is to relegate to that. That had been my initial intent, but my wording was kinda crap ;) Please take the below as the revised text for consumption ;) Regards, Rania -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [sbpel] Issue - 82.3 - AP 1.1 definition to be refactored as a profile. Date: Mon, 27 Jun 2005 14:05:05 -0400 From: Rania Khalaf <rkhalaf@watson.ibm.com> To: wsbpel@lists.oasis-open.org References: <42BC4975.1090107@watson.ibm.com> <42BC4F4A.4080907@tibco.com> <42BC51BC.5020005@watson.ibm.com> <42BC5FBE.8060400@oracle.com> <42C02C11.3010500@watson.ibm.com> Hi everyone, Here is a summary of the main points of the AP1.1 profile. I would like to do two rounds of this: One to agree on the 'meat' (points below), and another of the spec wording/motivation/etc.. Like what we did for main 82. The main idea here was to make the AP1.1 into a profile, and adding a completions section that is based on the idea of keeping the messages exchange order the same. Regards, Rania -------------------------------------------------- AP1.1 refactoring, start. ------------------------------- (add motivation) (consider what old text to bring in from spec and how to modify it to introduce various aspects, especially regarding clarifications about initialization of correlation sets and variable omission). ProfileURI: - http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2004/03/business-process/abstract/ap11 Base Language subset _____________________ .. This profile restricts the base in the following manner: (From AP1.1 original): * The only expression that can be opaque is <from opaque='yes'> * The only attributes that can be opaque are the attributes "variable", "inputVariable" and "outputVariable", on receive/invoke/reply/onMessage/onEvent (Note: bug fix based on Issue 97: fixing the consistency for elements onMessage and onEvent). * It is not clear whether BPEL function 'getVariableData' is allowed (what's the new form of this with $ etc): Text disallows it, but example uses it. Need to vote on this. Preference is to disallow it. However, 'get VariablePropery' is still allowed. * Activity <exit > is not allowed. * Uses omission-shortcut for the opaque tokens above. (Suggested Changes): * In this profile, allow leaving out the createInstance receive (This is a part of the consideration of Issue 99 which may also affect Issue 82). * Allowing opaque activity, as a bug fix for the two reasons below. Note that its use elsewhere is superfluous since completions in this profile allow adding new BPEL activities anywhere: -Allows for hiding an activity that is the source or target of -links. Allows for using omission-shortcut in places like fault handlers etc (This had led to Issue 91). * Allowing all expressions to be opaque except joinCondition. Please note that the joinCondition is based on the transition conditions on the incoming links. If the joinCondition is missing its default value is the disjunction of the status of the incoming links. Base Completions subset _________________________ Places where new activities may be added are not explicitly defined in processes in this profile. The permitted executable completions of abstract processes in this profile include both 'Opaque Token Replacement' and 'Addition of BPEL Constructs', but subsetting those such that: o Each process that is a valid executable completion of a process in this profile MUST NOT: * add to * omit any of * or change the order (control dependency) of any of the interactions along the partnerlinks already defined in the abstract process, even if replacing opaque activities (including those omitted with omission-shortcut, such as activity of a fault handler). Note that this still allows for adding new interactions with new partnerLinks (ie: partnerLinks added in the executable completion but not present in the abstract process). o It is not allowed to add copies in assigns whose 'to' is any of the EPRs of the partnerLinks defined in the abstract process, because that is equivalent to removing subsequent interactions with that partner. Remember that 'opaque token replacement' also replaces opaque tokens omitted through the omission-shortcut. ( Note: The phrase 'even if .. ' sentence is pending whether opaque activities get allowed. ) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this mail list, you must leave the OASIS TC that generates this mail.
