Hello, This could be a basic question but I don't seem to find any sample for this. According to BPEL spec, wait activity can take duration or datetime as attribute values but in strings. This is straight forward. User specifies a constant value. However the spec also says that wait can get input from variable. But it does not specify the syntax for querying such value. I assume in that case something like | <wait for="bpws:getVariableData('variable', 'part', 'query')" /> | would work. Am I right here? Can someone please confirm if this is how it is supposed to work? Thank you, Meghana View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4146664#...
