Workflow Description#

This workflow writes content to the node created in the previous one.

The neat thing about using the CML statements approach to performing repository operations is that the BPEL application is identical apart from the content of the SOAP initiation message. This is given below.

Code snippet 5.1. Worflow input SOAP message.

Alfresco#

If we go back to Alfresco, the screenshot below shows that there is now 0.26 kB of data in the node which was previously empty.

Figure 5.1. The new node with content.

Clicking the node's hyperlink reveals the content:

Man is distinguished, not only by his reason, but by this singular passion from other animals, 
which is a lust of the mind, that by a perseverance of delight in the continued and indefatigable generation of
knowledge, exceeds the short vehemence of any carnal pleasure.

(Hobbes)
