Interface Workflow

All Superinterfaces:

Result

All Known Implementing Classes:

WorkflowImpl

public interface Workflow

extends Result

Defines a network of new Tasks and Links between them.
The only way to create new Tasks is for a PTask's Function to return a Workflow as a Result. This PTask will then become the parent of the newly defined Tasks. Additionally, the network bindings specify how new Tasks are re-linked to their parent's inputs and outputs.
After the Workflow is committed to the WorkSpace, all Tasks contained by this Workflow will be turned into PTasks. After committing, the inputs and outputs of the parent PTask are set to the new PTasks - as defined by the bindings.
