[overlord-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (SOAG-68) Async Perform

Async Perform ------------- Key: SOAG-68 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SOAG-68 Project: Overlord Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: Conversation Runtime Affects Versions: 1.0 MR1 Reporter: Gary Brown Assignee: Jeff Yu Fix For: 1.0 CR1 Currently the Brokerage example iterates through a list of suppliers to find the best quote, before proceeding to perform a credit check and complete the transaction. However the list of suppliers is processed using a loop containing a synchronous perform, so each supplier is dealt with in turn. The next step is to cater for an asynchronous perform, where the suppliers can be dealt with concurrently (i.e. so multiple sub-sessions active at the same time). This would require the 'WhenAction' to block, awaiting all of the sub-sessions to complete, before making its decision regarding the best quote.
