Trigger Happy Madness

Hi everyone,Wonder if anyone can help...I'm using the 8.1.2 version of the Builder and trying to enable workflow triggers (specifically Performer Callbacks) but seem to be having some problems....I've created a new OSpace and orphaned the following object:WFMAIN:WF Root:CallbackEventScripts:PerformerCallbackScriptsthen overriddent the fEnabled feature and set it to true. I thought this was all there was to enabling the triggers.After running BuildOSpace in the Ospace global and stop-starting, I fully expected the EventScripts tab to be present in a test workflow. Guess what? Nothing there....After sniffing around for a while I found that if I actually unlocked WFMAIN and did the same thing to the original object, it works fine.... :0(Am I just being completely stupid or is there something I'm missing here....Any help would be greatly appreciated..Jonny

Jonny,The way the registration of triggers works, is that only script features that are actually in your object will get registered. Features that are only inherited will not be registered.So, all you need to do is make a minor change to the LoadBalance script (just add and then delete a character), so your object actually 'contains' the feature.Hope this helps,Phil.

Thanks for that - I've finally figured this out now. (After much tracing through original code).I've knocked together a couple of PerformerCallback scripts and they seem to work ok. What I'd really like to do is have a bash at creating a custom Workflow step....(a multiple branch decision step would be really useful...)Have u got any ideas on how this mechanism works...I've found the stuff in and around CustomCallbackEvent which make some cryptic references to this kind of thing but then stops....Any info would be greatly appreciated...TaJonny

Jonny,Are you aware of the developer documentation for workflows ?It's athttp://knowledge.opentext.com/knowledge/livelink.exe?func=ll&objId=2120340&objAction=browse&sort=nameIf you don't have permissions to it, I suggest you contact Andrew Woolstone or your account manager.Cheers,Phil.
