Re: [Struts Workflow Extension] Help
With your configuration, your are in the following state, after having executed
the action "/main1":
- you are allowed to execute any action that leads to the state 2 in workflow "wf2"
- you are allowed to execute the action "/main"
So, this should admit you to execute the action "/main".
However in your definition of the action "/main" you specify that this action
can only be executed if the previous state of "wf1" is "1". You can solve this
issue by rewriting your "/main1" action definition like so:
> <action path="/main1" type="Main1Action">
> <set-property property="primaryWorkflow" value="w2" />
> <set-property property="newState" value="1" />
> <set-property property="nextState" value="2" />
> <set-property property="nextPath" value="/main" />
> <set-property property="secondaryWorkflow" value="w1" />
> <set-property property="newState" value="1" />
> <forward name="success" path="createOrderMenuDef"/>
> </action>
This makes the state of "wf1" being set to "1" when action "/main1" is executed
and now you can execute "/main"
Pls. let me know if it works then,

BTW: I would like to have the messages regarding the struts workflow extension
being stored in the struts mailing list archive, therefore I would like to have
our conversation to be sent to the mailing list as well. Nevertheless you should
also set my mail address into the to field, which makes the mail appear in my
inbox instead of being filtered in the struts mailing list folder.

Yes, specifying multiple prevStates is allowed.

Hi Matthias,
Thanks. It worked.
I want to know one more thing. Can there be 2
prevStates for a single action.
<action path="/main" type="MainAction">
<set-property property="primaryWorkflow" value="w1" />
<set-property property="prevState" value="1" />
<set-property property="prevState" value="2" />
<set-property property="newState" value="3" />
<set-property property="nextState" value="4" />
<forward name="success" path="Def"/>
</action>
Thanks,
Amit
