conditional "convoy" ?
|

| Ravi Shankar 2005-05-14, 1:16 pm |
| Hi,
I have a scenario where due to certain size restrictions in the defined
"standard" message format, it might be required to sequence certain messages
to get more information across applications. In such a scenario I'd be
getting multiple messages which need to be handled by a singe orchestration.
This is a "sequential convoy" pattern right ? But not all instances of the
message to this orchestration would necessarily result in multiple messages...
So can I invoke a "sequencial convoy" pattern on a condition within the
orchestration ?
The example is: A standard format allows me to report a maximum of 20
intances within one message. Our client says provide a maximum of 100
instances.. so I'd sent one message with the request and the application will
send me 5 messages with the responses. Another service request wants only the
default 20 instances so only one message ever would come as a response..
Hope I've managed to state my req clearly.

| Hi Ravi,
Sure, sequencial convoy message pattern can be implemented by
features lik looply receive and message correlation, etc. However the
key point is: if your orchestration doesn't know the number of
response batches when sending the request, the partner must send
something particluar to mark the last batch.
For convoy implement, the following reference should help much:
