Jocelyn,

Just out of curiosity, has there been any changes to the Workflow Builder to allow the declaration of interface container elements?. This would be a really powerful feature and would allow the use of polymorphism in Workflow.

Regards,

Alon Raskin

Actually Mike, I think if you show ABAP OO using both the ABAP OO pattern builder, and the latest ABAP OO editor which has that Java-like instant help with putting together your ABAP statements, that would go a long way to helping folk such as Sherie to make the transition from BOR to ABAP OO. 

The creation of attributes and methods is really no harder - as you needed to specify instance/static, dictionary types, parameters and exceptions even in BOR, and as any workflow specific settings such as the "synchronous" flag are now on the task or are no longer relevant (such as "dialog"). 

Also Sherie I would recommend you try the SDN blogs yourself as they do show you all the critical code which gives you the patterns you need to create your own classes. 

I'm hoping to finish the final blog on linking BOR to ABAP OO very soon. Just having some access problems from this site.

Hi,
This can vary quite wildly by company. I would start with your ABAP dev
standards and follow the general theme.

I usually end up with a "Development Standards" doc that incorporates WF.
Some of my favoured naming conventions:

Workflows: Z<module>_name - e.g. ZMM_POAppr, ZFI_InvAppr, ZHR_LeavReq
Bus Objects: Z<original object> for subtypes
  --> Components (attr, methods): zNameWithProperCase
Classes: ZCL_WF_<description>

Hope that helps for a start, maybe people can chip in....
Mike
