eZ Components

Version 1.2 of the Workflow component that is part of the eZ Components adds support for the Cancel Case workflow pattern:

Cancel Case

As soon as a node of the ezcWorkflowNodeCancel type is activated, the complete workflow instance is removed. This includes currently executing nodes, those which may execute at some future time and all parent and sub-workflows. The workflow instance is recorded as having completed unsuccessfully.

My diploma thesis paper has been updated accordingly to reflect the addition of the ezcWorkflowNodeCancel class.

    Hi Sebastian, I've started work on a product using the ezcWorkflow components and had a question. How would one go about the case where an Input Node could be sent back to the previous node (or even back to the Start Node), for more information for example?
