I think I'll rewrite it here: | <sequence name="START"> | <receive operation="connectMe" partnerLink="atm" portType="atm:FrontEnd" variable="agilproReq"/> | I have implemented a connectMe operation in my agilpro_impl.java file (partner relation) and added the following code (for test purpose): System.out.println("**** connectMe ****"); | So I see allways a log message in jBOSS console everytime an operation is performed. If I start a receive operation like above - this code is not performed. The only way - I now found out - is the following: sequence name="START"> | <receive operation="connectMe" partnerLink="atm" portType="atm:FrontEnd" variable="agilproReq"/> | <invoke inputVariable="agilproReq" name="initialConnect" operation="connectMe" partnerLink="agilpro" portType="agi:AgilproIssuer"/> | Like above: If I first use a receive on the atm relation and then an invoke on the partner relation - my code works. The only thing now: will this cause problems later on? Or would you say it is "good code"?
