Hi Jörg,
the Java Doc of the workflow package in MDM4J was omitted by accident during the packaging. It will be included in the next Patch.
Meanwhile I try to provide it to the MDM community by another way.
Regards
Andreas

Hi Jorg,
While the helper classes from the a2i.workflow package aren't in the Javadoc, the functionality to create a workflow job, add records to the job and then launch it are available through methods of the CatalogData class, not classes from the a2i.workflow package.
Here's a little code snippet.
//get record ids to be part of workflow
//here i take the first record in the repository
int[] recordIDs = {1};
CatalogData c = new CatalogData();
try {
//here i'm retrieving the first workflow in
//the workflow table
int wfRid = c.GetWorkflowByID(1).GetID();
//create workflow job
int wfJobID = c.CreateWorkflowJob(wfRid, recordIDs);
//launch the workflow
c.LaunchWorkflowJob(wfJobID);
} catch (StringException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
Hope this helps,
Richard
Hi Richard,
I wrote similar java code to launch MDM workflow by API.
After the LaunchWorkflowJob() method is called, MDM server, Console and Data Manager gets hang( can not refresh screen). Can not see what's happing in Data manager. Then need to bounce the MDM server to get back access to MDM console/Data manager.
I have setup workflow to be triggered "Manually". Is there any other configuration need to be done? like Max Time to Launch?
Or is it a Bug in MDM SP04.
Here is my code. Is there any problem with the code?
int recId[]=;
try{
WorkflowProperties[] wfp = catalog.GetWorkflows("Vendors");
for(int i=0; i< wfp.length; i++){
System.out.println("Active " + wfp<i>.IsActive() + " |ID " + wfp<i>.GetID() + " | Name " + wfp<i>.GetName() + " | Desc " + wfp<i>.GetDescription());
int wfjId = catalog.CreateWorkflowJob(wfp<i>.GetID(), recId);
catalog.LaunchWorkflowJob(wfjId);
}
}
catch(StringException se){
se.printStackTrace();
}
Thanks,
Abhay

Hi,
If you are referring to MDM 5.5, its workflow is configured using Microsoft Visio. As of now, it is still evolving.
