how to configure event handler in process configuration


Alexander Kofman (2663) | asked Apr 24 '08, 5:22 a.m.
I'm implementing a new event handler. As an example I look at the CreateVerifyTask.java of the com.ibm.team.workitem.service plug-in. According to this example, to enable an event handler one should insert the corresponding <event> element into the process specification. The example of the <event> element syntax was as follows:
<event>
<handlers>
<handler>
...
</handler>
</handlers>
</event>
However, it seems that the process configuration schema has been changed since writing this example. Instead of <event> element the <change> element is expected, which doesn't contain <handlers> element. Instead, <followup> element is expected under the <change>.
I'm using Beta2a version of Jazz.
Should I specify my event handler as a followup action? Or, may be event handlers are no longer supported and followup actions (former participants) should be implemented instead?

Event handlers are still supported. We unified the concepts for
operations and events. Both now support follow-up actions. Here is what
an event handler specification looks like inside the behavior node:

<change>
<followup>
<followup>
.....
</followup>
</followup>
</change>
