Descision Flow

[hindustani_ind]

1. I have an application that uses a webflow with 5 views.

One of the requirements for the flow is that if user selects an option on view 4, he is to be returned to view 2. However, after the users selects continue, on view 2, instead of going to view 3, he has to be redirected to view 4.

How can I use descision flow to implement this? Is there a better way of implementing this?


2. How do you display error messages in a webflow? I want the user to be redirected to the same page with the error message displayed.

can you show your code in the way how you are solving this?

SWF code examples and even documentation show how to work with
descision flow

other way is create a controller and do the same control of the decision

For decision logic your best option IHMO is to use Flow Listeners unless the logic is very very simple.

Listeners are easier to test and offer you more control and if your requirements change you don't have to dive into XML.

See class "FlowExecutionListenerAdapter"

Thanks. What about displaying errors on the jsp. The error I need to display is an application exception, AND NOT a validation exception
