Subject: Re: [wsbpel] repeatUntil description issue


Title: [wsbpel] repeatUntil description issue
Which is usually called do.. while.  We should either rename this, or redefine it.  The current definition doesn't match the name.

Hi Vinky,

 

I think the idea was to create a loop that executes at least once with a test after execution of the loop.  As opposed to <while> which tests before the loop is executed and thereby the loop code may not execute at all.  Is that still the semantics?

Subject: [wsbpel] repeatUntil description issue

 

As we discussed during the Nov 2nd conf. call. I would like to request opening the following new issue:

In 6.2 the description of <repeatUntil> is incorrect. It is opposite of the traditional meaning of a REPEAT UNTIL construct. The expected meaning is for the iterator to repeat *until* the boolean condition is met(becomes true). But the description says otherwise.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Current description:

The <repeatUntil> constructs allows you to indicate the repeated performance of a specified iterative activity. The iterative activity will continue to be performed so long as after it executes the given Boolean <repeatUntil> condition holds true.

Proposed Description:

The <repeatUntil> construct allows you to indicate the repeated performance of a specified iterative activity. The iterative activity will continue to be performed until the given Boolean <repeatUntil> condition becomes true.
