Project/Overview

(Status: Incubation) The support for WS-Notification has three phases:

  • interoperating with third-party WS-Notification implementations
  • providing a basic subset of WS-Notification features in a JBI Service Engine
  • providing enhancements and tools (and a more advanced subset of WS-Notification features)

    1. Actors - participating in the use-cases
    2. Primary Use Case - the main Basic Flow ("happy-path") use case (no error paths)
    3. Alternate Use Cases... - several alternative Basic Flow ("happy-path") use-cases (no error paths)
