ITemplate Update

posted Dec 19, 2018, 10:01 AM by Greg Kent
The following QBO3 ITemplate method signatures have been extended:

CreateInstance(GenericObject parent, IDictionary<string, object> parameters)

CreateInstanceAsync(GenericObject parent, IDictionary<string, object> parameters)

Both have been extended to include a Parent parameter that allows for accessibility to the Parent for optional actions. 

This is a breaking change: All classes that implement ITemplate  must be re-complied against this change to work. Do not deploy qbo.Application.dll without also deploying all other modules.

All modules that implement ITemplate have been updated.

The first use case was a bug fix in DecisionTemplate to address stalled workflows:
  • DecisionStep/StartTemplateAsync launches a Decision
  • Child Decision processing and completing before the parent DecsionStep could be properly bound
  • DecisionTemplate/CreateTemplateAsync was extended to persist information to the Parent to ensure bindings were in place before the child Decision processed
