available_templates.cfg

1. If a template file is declared active = "no" ,does it become active anyway if it is a successor or predecessor of any other task?

2.If active attribute is not declared for any template file then what does it become by default ;active/inactive?

Thanks in advance.

1. Question does not make any sense. WF Template, active or otherwise is not a task and can be neither successor nor predecessor to one.
It is an entity to generate WF Specifications that may be at some point instantiated into WF Job with multiple tasks organized into oriented Graph
with successors, predecessors, etc.

2. Default is active="yes", check available_templates.dtd within the same folder

What was I thinking? Please forgive me for such a stupid question.

And one more question.
Is it necessary that all the .wft files have corresponding .cfgs ?And why?

No, that is a characteristic of the OOTB workflows that Interwoven provides. The cfg files make it easier to customize without a great deal of knowledge of WFT. Since I write workflows from scratch none of my WFs use those cfg files.

Nipper - Thanks for your reply.I am new to Teamsite and trying to learn as much as possible.Can you please explain this submit task.As far as I understood this is the task that is initiated when the workflow starts first as
start = "t" ,name,desc ,unlock ...all that is fine. If this succeeds then its successor load_content becomes active .What about the activation?I dint understand that part.Can you please explain.

submittask name = "submit" owner = "__INSERT__($iwuser);" start = "t" unloc
k = "t" override = "t" skiplocked = "f" description = "submit" savecomments = "t
" skipconflicts = "f"
areavpath v = "__INSERT__($iwarea);"
successorset description = "Go to load_content"
succ v = "load_content"
/successorset
__INSERT__($iw_selected_files);
activation
or
pred v = "Resolve"/
/or
/activation
/submittask

Learn how to post code and XML (using HTML tags)

The activation tags tell the WF what steps are allowed to start it. In this case it is the 1st step (start="t"), but it can also be reached from the resolve step, so if there is a problem, there is a step to allow someone to fix the error and start the WF
