WfXML component

Having this component, you are able to connect to a workflow engine which supports WfMC interface defined by WfMC, and to manage XPDL files on the engine.

To connect to a workflow engine, valid registry service URL must be entered. After you enter it, and press the button right to the URL, you should connect to the engine, and get a list of the process definitions already uploaded to the engine, as on the picture below:

The toolbar for this component contains buttons for performing actions for managing XPDLs on the engine. The actions are described in the following table:

Downloads XPDL from the engine.

Uploads XPDL to the engine.

Updates XPDL to the engine.

Clears the history (which you are able to select from a combo box) of most recently entered URLs of WfXML compliant engines.

As with all other components, you are also able to change the content of the toolbar, and the order of toolbar buttons.
