Decision Task -> Link to object's default Display method

[Rick Bakker]

Hi Rick,

I have bound an object to the Decision Task. It shows up on the right under
Objects and Attachments.
If I click on it, it runs its Display method. I put a breakpoint in the
Display method, all is as expected.

I'm not sure what you mean by "container values". You're passing parameters
to the method?
How do you do that?

If I pass a container element, say XTEST, from the workflow to the decision
task, I expect it to be available to the Decision task. I don't expect it to
be passed to the Display method of an object in the workitem. I'm not even
sure how to do that. Maybe I'm missing something.

regards
Rick
