Subject: Issue - 273 - Removing capability of <empty> to execute prior to createInstance
This issue has been added to the wsbpel issue list with a status of "received". The status will be changed to "open" if a motion to open the issue is proposed and that motion is approved by the TC. A motion could also be proposed to close it without further consideration. Otherwise it will remain as "received".
The issues list is posted as a Technical Committee document to the OASIS WSBPEL TC pages on a regular basis. The current edition, as a TC document, is the most recent version of the document entitled in the "Issues" folder of the WSBPEL TC document list - the next posting as a TC document will include this issue. The list editor's working copy, which will normally include an issue when it is announced, is available at this constant URL.
This was discussed during the April 24-28 meeting and the general consensus was to remove <empty> from the list. Since this is a normative change, a new issue is being opened for any further discussion.
As discussed during the meeting, allowing an <empty> to execute prior to a start activity seemed out of place since all of the other activities were container activities in which the start activity would have been embedded. Furthermore, allowing an <empty> to execute prior to the start activity introduces the possibility that outbound links from the <empty> might fire and trigger the execution of other types of activities prior to the execution of the start activity. Based on these issues, the proposal is to remove the <empty> from this list.
Submitter's proposal: The proposed change is in Section 10.4
From:
NO other "non-start activities" but scope, flow, sequence or empty activities may potentially be performed prior to or simultaneously with a "start activity".
To:
NO other "non-start activities" but scope, flow, or sequence activities may potentially be performed prior to or simultaneously with a "start activity".
