External Task

janhavi

Hi,

Is it compulsory to add "command" for external task? I want to create one dummy external task in my current workflow which selects the "succ" depending upon some logic. But if I am not writing any command it is throwing error. Can anyone help me to solve this problem?

Can I write any dummy commad?

Thanks,

You can write one dummy command saying "$blankcmd"

And assign that command trigger to null value

$blankcmd = "";

Use standard <dummytask> instead. Note that since you can not attach Files to the dummy, it's a poor choice for the Start task

You want to escape the command element and still want to have some logic to select the successor, how are you trying to achieve this?

By using conditional activation set for example

I changed my external task to dummy task but it is giving some problem.
Can you please tell me the problem?

I have attached my dummytask code.

In my code, I am using logic to change "succ" value (logic is in selecting succ and not for task used). Currently i have added succ value as DeployEmail.

What error is it giving you ? Just the code does not good unless someone has everythign and runs it themselves.

You have incorrect "__INSERT__" function quoting - and you do not need it in the Perl context in the first place. Try

#push(@xmlArray,"<timeout v=\"__INSERT__($timeout)\">");
push(@xmlArray, qq(<timeout v="$timeout">));

Try changing __INSERT__($timeout) to just $timeout -- you do not want to use __INSERT__ within Perl code.

Also - if you're going to code your WFT in Perl - consider looking at TeamSite::WFconstructor - it's a lot better for job.

Thanks a lot for your help. I have changed the timeout command from insert_($timeout) to $timeout and it worked.

Thanks,
