Issue - 114 - Multiple Correlation Sets
Status: open

Categories: Correlation

Date added: 31 Mar 2004

Submitter: Dieter Koenig1

Date submitted: 30 March 2004

Document: BPEL4WS 1.1 (May 5, 2003), Chapter 10, "Correlation".

Description: If multiple correlation sets with initiate="no" are used in a receive or pick/onMessage activity, then it is not specified whether each one of them must resolve individually to the same process instance.

Submitter's proposal: We propose that the following clarification is added to the BPEL specification:

If multiple correlation sets with initiate="no" are used in a receive
   or pick/onMessage, then any individually must resolve to the same
   process instance.

The same rule applies if EPRs with Reference Properties are used to
   identify an instance and correlation sets are present.
