Operation node GVCore element Description
Enqueue GVOperationNode Allows to perform a communication with an external systems (invocation, sending messages, receiving messages).
Its op-type parameter will be setted to enqueue.

A GVOperationNode is an operation node indicating that GreenVulcano® ESB must perform a communication with an external systems (invocation, sending messages, receiving messages).
For example, if the node indicates a receive a message (see attribute op-type), you can also define a DequeueFilter that sets certain conditions that the received message must meet.

The GVOperationNode is a Flow element that extends FlowNode. It has the following attributes:

Attribute Type Description
class fixed This attributes must assume the value it.greenvulcano.gvesb.core.flow.GVOperationNode.
op-type fixed This attributes must assume the value call, enqueue, dequeue
id-system -dp required Identifies the system involved in communication. Can be selected from systems declared as Participant in the Operation section. The attribute value can't be null.
operation-name required Identifies the communication operation selected by the channel of the system indicated by the id-system attribute.
Only the operations of the type declared in the 'op-type' attribute can be selected.
Its value cannot be null.

and the subelements:

  • InputServices
  • OutputServices
  • DequeueFilter
