Method Details

process

public final SimpleResult process(RouteContext routeContext,
 RouteHelper routeHelper)
                           throws Exception

Specified by:

process in interface SimpleNode

Overrides:

process in class RequestActivationNode

Throws:

Exception

generateRequests

protected List<ActionRequestValue> generateRequests(RouteContext routeContext)
                                             throws Exception

Throws:

Exception

applyPoliciesOnExit

protected void applyPoliciesOnExit(List<ActionRequestValue> requestsGenerated,
 RouteContext routeContext)

Applies policies that should get checked prior to transitioning out of this node. The default implementation of this method checks the "mandatory" policy.

Parameters:

requestsGenerated - the requests generated on the current iteration of the route module

routeContext - the current route context

processCustom

protected boolean processCustom(RouteContext routeContext,
 RouteHelper routeHelper)
                         throws Exception

Used by subclasses to replace the functioning of the process method.

Returns:

true if custom processing was performed and the base implementation in process(RouteContext, RouteHelper) should be skipped.

Throws:

Exception

verifyFinalApprovalRequest

protected void verifyFinalApprovalRequest(DocumentRouteHeaderValue document,
 List<ActionRequestValue> requests,
 RouteNodeInstance nodeInstance,
 RouteContext routeContext)
                                   throws RouteManagerException

Verifies the state of the action requests when a final approval action is involved. Throws a RouteManagerException if actions were not generated correctly.

Throws:

RouteManagerException

getNewActionRequests

public List<ActionRequestValue> getNewActionRequests(RouteContext context)
                                              throws Exception

Throws:

Exception

getRouteModule

protected RouteModule getRouteModule(RouteContext context)
                              throws Exception

Returns the RouteModule which should handle generating requests for this RequestsNode.

Throws:

Exception

isPastFinalApprover

protected boolean isPastFinalApprover(DocumentRouteHeaderValue document,
 RouteNodeInstance nodeInstance)

Checks if the document has past the final approver node by walking backward through the previous node instances. Ignores any previous nodes that have been "revoked".

isPastFinalApprover

protected void isPastFinalApprover(List previousNodeInstances,
 RequestsNode.FinalApproverContext context,
 Set revokedNodeInstanceIds)

getKey

protected Object getKey(RouteNodeInstance nodeInstance)

The method will get a key value which can be used for comparison purposes. If the node instance has a primary key value, it will be returned. However, if the node instance has not been saved to the database (i.e. during a simulation) this method will return the node instance passed in.

detectRunawayProcess

protected void detectRunawayProcess(RouteContext routeContext,
 int currentIteration)
                             throws NumberFormatException

Throws:

NumberFormatException

isSuppressingPolicyErrors

public static boolean isSuppressingPolicyErrors(RouteContext routeContext)

setSuppressPolicyErrors

public static void setSuppressPolicyErrors(RouteContext routeContext)

getParameterService

protected ParameterService getParameterService()
