BPMN2 — Fix difference between MessageFlowNode definition in specification vs the semantic.xmi file

  • Key: BPMN2-128
  • Legacy Issue Number: 14675
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: BPM Advantage Consulting ( Dr. Stephen White)
  • Summary:

    From Mohamed Keshk (via email):

    In "Semantic.xmi" file, the only sub-classes of "MessageFlowNode" are: Task, Event, and Participant.

    While in pdf specs, page 122, first section entitled with "MessageFlowNode", first paragraph, the following is written:
    "Only the Pool/Participant, Activity, and Event elements can connect to Message Flow and thus, these elements are the only ones that are sub-classes of MessageFlowNode".

    Am I missing something here, or some changes should be made?

  • Disposition: Resolved — BPMN 2.0
  • Disposition Summary:

    The elements listed in the schema are correct. If a Task or Event is contained within a Sub-Process that is collapsed, then the tool will be able to derived that the
    connection should be redirected to the boundary of the Sub-Process.
