Task with AFTER method question

[Dart, Jocelyn]

Hey Rick
 
The intent of secondary methods is to do non-important stuff like
display things.  
If you are using it for updates you might want to think again. 
 
An alternative if you are using UWL is just to create an extra action
(button) for your item type that calls your secondary app directly
rather than through an object method. 
You still need to make sure the workflow is able to respond to any
changes made by the secondary app as needed. 
However it's quite a handy approach for e.g. User Decision + Extra
function

Subject: Task with AFTER method question


I have a task with a bor-method as a secondary method. 
After MUCH fuss with the buffers I almost got what I want. 
 
In a the task when you use an object-method that has Exceptions 
you can see these exceptions in the Outcomes and take 
action. i.e. not a before / after method.
 
I removed the method from the main task, put in a void BG method,
(testing)
then moved that same method to a secondary method. 
I do not get these exceptions added to the Outcomes when 
in a secondary method. 
 
Any ideas how to handle exceptions from a secondary method?
