Process Manager Components

The Process Manager Web service is incorporated into the processmanager.war file. The Web service is automatically deployed when the WAR file is deployed.

The Process Manager Web service utilizes technology from Apache Axis. The WSDL is generated from the same base classes as the Workflow Java API.

Starting with CA Workflow r1.1, a new Process Manager API supports complex data types as part of the WSDL definition, allowing for easier processing of the data returned from various API methods. The new API also allows third party WSDL2Java tools to generate Java stub classes which are a native Java representation of input and output parameters for most methods.
