Method Detail

execute

void execute(ActivityExecution execution)
             throws java.lang.Exception

invoked when an execution arrives in an activity.

An ActivityBehaviour can control the propagation of execution. ActivityBehaviour's can become external activities when they invoke ActivityExecution.waitForSignal(). That means the activity will become a wait state. In that case, ExternalActivityBehaviour should be implemented to also handle the external signals.

java.lang.Exception
