Job workflow

[cmoulliard]

Hi,

I would like to know if spring batch include :
- a workflow process in the sense that I can create a workflow with steps, decision points and integrate it within the batch or
- Do we have to use flow4j or equivalent framework to handle a workflow

Regards,
Charles

No.

What do you mean by 'workflow'? Like a workflow engine with lots of branching options, validations, etc? Or is your flow a 'linear' batch job?

There is definitely not any workflow provided as part of spring batch. However, since it's spring, you should be able to inject an existing one.
