<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:35.4pt'><font size=2 face=Arial><span

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:35.4pt'><font size=2 face=Arial><span
lang=EN-GB style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>of my Action is connected
with the Fault. The outgoing connection of the CompositeNode is connected with
the next Action. When I run the process it comes to the Action node and hangs
there if no exception occurs (the next Action is never reached). Looking at the
model this is reasonable since the outgoing connection leads to the Fault node.
So my question is how can I properly model this kind of exception handling,
where I need two ways of execution (one if everything goes fine, and one for
fault handling)? Wrapping everything inside a CompositeNode alone does not seem
to be sufficient…</span></font></p>
