BPMN2 — "isInterrupting" attribute of Start Events

  • Key: BPMN2-229
  • Legacy Issue Number: 14858
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Trisotech ( Mr. Denis Gagne)
  • Summary:

    The "isInterrupting" attribute is introduced in the start events to deal with the possible non interrupting nature of start events in the context of Event Sub-processes. It is to be ignored for other Start Events.

    A few issues:
    In Table 10-112 on page 294. The schema snippet is missing the "isInterrupting" attribute.

    In Table 10-80 on page 251 the isInterrupting attribute has no default value whereas the semantic.xsd file does set it by default to "false"

    Should we remove the default value from the schema or should we set the "isInterrupting" attribute to "true" by default so that if that attribute is pushed in the context of a normal start event the proper depiction will be rendered. (Eventhough it should have been ignored..)
