Polymorphic classes in workflow?

[Gavin Mooney]

Hey Mike,

Alon was having a moan about this back in November (thread "Specifying
Interface as Importing parameter") and as far as I know this is still
not possible in 700.

Actually it looks like Alon asked Jocelyn about it on 21/6 in the
thread "Presentation on Classy Workflows / BOR vs ABAP OO" and we're
still waiting for Jocelyn's reply.

Jocelyn? Any words of wisdom?

Cheers,
Gavin
