Aspose.Workflow for .NET v2.0.0 has been released. This release includes new XPDL Designer and enhanced Workflow Engine. Designer provides ability for its users to create or manage XPDL 1.0 or XPDL 2.1 packages and Engine allows the users to upload XPDL 1.0 and XPDL 2.1 packages and to create XPDL 1.0 and XPDL 2.1 compatible workflow applications.
XPDL 2.1 includes some new features and elements and the most interesting of them is the ability to edit and execute scripts without specifying any external tool agent class for an activity. The new XPDL Designer supports VB, CS and JS script types.
Aspose.Workflow Engine automatically detects the version of XPDL and allows its users to upload XPDL 1.0 and XPDL 2.1 packages using the same API. The exciting feature of the Engine is that it allows the parallel execution of XPDL 1.0 and XPDL 2.1 processes in the same workflow application.
Because of the backward compatibility provided by Aspose.Workflow Engine, the existing workflow applications will not be affected and users can enhance their existing applications.
Other new features include
· Ability to suspend or resume a workflow process at runtime
· Ability to get the assigned users for a task
