Integrating a Workflow with a Component Integrator Component
To integrate a Component Integrator Java Component or a Java Message Service (JMS), use the following procedure:
- Adding a
workflow step that includes at least one of your custom classes, using
the Designer tool
for workflow authoring. For an example of this, refer to the Content Engine
Operations Component
Integrator example in the Help for Process Engine Reference online
help.
- Starting the Component Manager is described in the following references:
Note that the Component Manager must be stopped and restarted, whenever any
Component
Manager required library files are altered.
- Re-adjusting (as an option) configuration properties with the component
advanced properties runtime dialog of the Component Manager, for settings
changes that will affect only the current instance of the component.
- Starting
the connections for your component with the Component Manager.
- Launching
a workflow that has an integrated component step in it.
- Processing work items in Component steps
is described in the Component Integrator
Preparation and Processing Task Flow topic in this document. To view an
analysis of the processing required in to complete a step, see the topic Completing
the Step, in this document.
