Work Item Library

The work item library is a set of work items provided with the Workflow application to enable you to build your own workflows.

This chapter contains the following sections:

• Start State and End State Work Items
• Synchronization Work Items
• Token Processor Work Items
• Regular Work Items

Table 32 in Chapter 6, Building Workflows, lists the available work items. We provide a BeanInfo class with each work item to facilitate the use of a visual design tool. The associated BeanInfo describes all item properties. You can edit the properties to customize the behavior of a work item to suit the environment in which it is going to be executed and the task it is going to perform. When you specify the pathname, relative paths are taken from the workflow engine root directory; the default value for this directory is /opt/UMC/wkf.

All the listed work items with the exception of the loggers are located in the net.juniper.smgt.workflow.wkitemlib package listed in Table 32. The Logger and Lazy Logger work items are provided as examples. They are not intended for use in real workflows. The loggers are located in the net.juniper.smgt.workflow.wkitemexamples package.
