Thrown if an attempt is made to release a WfResource from an assignmentto which it is not associated.

Package wt.workflow.work Description

Provides workflow classes responsible for managing the work assigned to individual users.

The Workflow Work Package

The workflow work package contains classes that are responsible for managing the work assigned to individual users. The activity’s work may be assigned to one or more resources. These assignees can be declared to be required or optional. This relationship is modeled by the association between the WfAssignedActivity and the WfAssignment class. These two classes, along with the WorkItem and WfBallot classes, provide for parallel work item distribution and completion by the assignees, and for decision-based event propagation based on the tallied results of the completed work.

WfActivity inherits many attributes and behaviors from the WfExecutionObject, including name, description, and input/output data (’context’ attribute). A WfAssignment has a status (which is not a WfState) and is not directly associated with a context. Instead, it inherits the context from the WfActivity to which it belongs. A WfAssignment maintains a set of ballots (Wfballot) that captures dispositions made by assignees. These ballots can then be used to tally the votes based on a voting policy to determine what routing events should fire when the activity is completed. Both WfAssignedActivity and WfAssignment have a trip counter attribute that is used to manage information generated as a result of loop iterations.
