<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=790235307-10052006><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>1.) This is exactly what i have done. I developed a wrapper
method (static) which calls the find~by~lpor method. This wrapper method is
implemented in a task in my workflow and returns an instance. Unfortunatelly the
returned instance is always initial in my workflow even tho the key which gets
passted to the task is a valid key. As the task is exectuted by the background
user wf-batch i cant debug it. So its hard to figure what is running wrong :(

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=654542007-10052006><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>Restrictions in 6.20 are:</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=654542007-10052006><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>* No functional methods (which is sad but you'll

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=654542007-10052006><FONT face=Arial

<DIV><SPAN class=654542007-10052006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>1.
Always add a CREATEINSTANCE static method to your ABAP OO object. This
method should accept in your object key, do a create object step, and catch any
exceptions (e.g. object does not exist) and return the object in a returning
parameter. You can then call the CREATEINSTANCE step in a
task. Double check your binding - I often find it easier to
bind directly to the returning parameter rather than use the _WI_Object element.

size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=654542007-10052006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Note:
You are not permitted to call the Constructor method directly in a task, and
likewise leave all the LPOR stuff alone -that's for internal use by the workflow
engine only. In NW04s you don't even get to choose those methods when you
create a task so best not to touch them at all. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=654542007-10052006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>2.
Absolutely use ABAP OO Events. You should only use BOR events if you have
an SAP provided BOR object and no way of raising an OO event due to the way that
applications config works. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=091293506-10052006>i am currently
implementing Workflows baseing on ABAP OO in a 6.20 System (yes i know there are
some restrictions, just dont know much about these restrictions, as i
havent yet found any valuable infos).</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=091293506-10052006>I do facing some
problems and need some ideas:</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=091293506-10052006>1. How do i get a
handle of a ABAP OO class (included the IF_WORKFLOW as well as implementation of
the respective Methods (find~by~lpor etc)) in my workflow container at
runtime?. I do start the workflow with the WAPI-FB to start a workflow. So
far i have tried to wrapp the find~by~lpor method in another static method
which is called from my workflow. I do pass a key to the task which implements
the wrapper method. The task passes the key to the method and the
method should return a handle which will then passed back to the
workflow. Everthing on the data-level is fine, meaning the key is a valid
key (did run the class in testmode and called the wrapper method with
that key and i do get a valied handle back) . Unfortuantelly the
container element of the workflow which should hold the returned handle is
always empty.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=091293506-10052006>2. Is it recommend
to use EVENTS as part of ABAP OO to control workflows or should i
better go with a BOR implementation for that matter?</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
