Specific embodiment
Technical solution of the present invention is described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples.
A kind of flow engine of the invention, including the deployment of process design, process and process flow operation three parts.
Process design includes process and activity creation, and each process is made of multiple activities, and process includes process name, stream
Journey description and active set six Activity Types composition, combined with Figure 1 and Figure 2, active set include come into play, processing activity,
Judgement activity, iteron process action, the activity of parallel substreams journey and ending activity.Wherein, each process must include starting to live
Dynamic, three Activity Types of processing activity and ending activity.
The specific effect of six Activity Types is as follows:
It comes into play as the start node of definitim flow.
Processing activity is that definitim flow node is specifically handled at item, including handling suggestion, upload attachment, selection next step
Reason people, customized processing control, process are agreed to, return to processed riposte and turn the flow processings steps such as group.
Judgement activity is according to the judgement selection execution follow-up process node for presetting expression formula.
As shown in figure 3, iteron process action is that definitim flow node is multiprocessing people while handling identical nested stream
Journey, only can a nested sub-process.If department distributes confirmation process, the department owner of being distributed is carried out the same confirmation behaviour
Make, then flow engine can generate the process of corresponding number according to selected portion personnel for departmental staff's processing.
Parallel substreams journey activity is that definitim flow node is multiprocessing people while handling different nested processes, can be nested more
A sub-process, and trigger condition is started according to nested sub-process, trigger corresponding sub-process.As shown in figure 4, with two sub-processes
For, the joint examination of parallel substreams journey includes sub-process 1 and sub-process 2, respectively to sub-process 1 and the processing joint examination of sub-process 2.
Ending activity is the end node of definitim flow.

Deng.
Flow engine of the invention is needed by iteron process action, the various complicated business of parallel substreams journey movable supporting
It asks, repeats sub-process, when distributing to more people on stream and examining, the approval processes of all processing people are all identical, parallel son
Process when distributing to more people on stream and examining, can configure different approval processes for different approvers.
Defining parallel substreams journey includes three kinds of end modes:
Sub-process must all terminate after the completion of all sub-processes all examination & approval, and step examination & approval are completed, and carry out in next step
Process；Any sub-process terminates, as long as other parallel substreams journeys continue to run after have a sub-process, the step knot
Beam, carries out next step, other parallel substreams journeys continue to examine；Any sub-process terminates, other parallel substreams journeys are tied automatically
Beam, as long as the sub-process including sub-process is to have a sub-process to terminate the step to terminate, other parallel substreams journeys are tied automatically
Beam does not need to examine.
Process disposes the incidence relation of visioning procedure and specific business, and so as to certain business, certain Flow driving runs deployment stream
It is may choose whether when journey using copy mode operational process；When using copy mode, when creating a certain service operation, process
Back up the activity of current business process simultaneously, if this business is at runtime, main process change, then the operation flow run not by
It influences, continues to run the process of previous version；If not starting copy mode to run, all processes according to newest process flow operation,
Main process change, then the operation flow that runs while changing, the process that Real Time Effect has been run.
Process deployment creation include deployment process name, deployment process description, flow type, bind domain object title,
Whether domain object editor's user control path, domain object are handled and check user control path, run in a manner of copy
Step.
Process action when process and operation, records the specific letter when Flow driving service operation when process flow operation includes operation
Breath.When flow startup, record traffic data start start flow step, and start follow-up process automatically according to default rule,
It is sent simultaneously to subsequent processing human hair pending.
Processing people enters flow processing node by backlog, and whether flow nodes when determining operation are shape to be processed
State carries out business processing or retraction operation, corresponding business information and approval status is updated after processing when being armed state, send out
Send it is pending and automatically start follow-up operation when flow nodes, if subsequent node be judgements, parallel substreams journey, repeat sub-process, tie
Then system automatically processes Shu Jiedian.
As shown in figure 5, flow nodes when must first select returnable operation, execution is moved back before processing people executes retraction operation
Return that operation post-processing present node state is returned and handles pending, updates parallel node is returned state, and is labeled as
Can not returns state again, create selection retract node and to send the node pending.If follow-up process node type is to terminate,
Then system ends automatically the process.
