Property to Disable Workflow Server CleanInTranslation Job

Added new configuration property workflow.blueprint.clean-in-translation.enabled in Blueprint class com.coremedia.blueprint.workflow.boot.BlueprintWorkflowServerAutoConfiguration as option to disable the Workflow Server’s CleanInTranslation background job. It defaults to true, which keeps it enabled as in previous releases. The default value will change to false in future releases.

The CleanInTranslation background job is not necessary and can be disabled if all used translation and localization processes use the CleanInTranslationFinalAction in their process definition, which is recommended. For details, see the Blueprint Developer Manual, section “CoreMedia Blueprint - Functionality for Websites | Workflow Management | Translation Workflow | Configuration and Customization”.

You can check whether CleanInTranslation is enabled or disabled in the Workflow Server log. If enabled, it will log an INFO message at startup time containing Scheduling CleanInTranslation. If no such message is logged after start, then CleanInTranslation is disabled.

Forking Multiple Subworkflows and Dynamic Variable Assignment

The Workflow Server now allows workflow definitions to fork multiple workflow subprocesses at once in a <ForkSubprocess> task, and then join them again using one <JoinSubprocess> task. Furthermore, variables of a forked subprocess can now also be assigned dynamically from a struct value that is provided by the parent process. For details, see the documentation of the <ForkSubprocess> and <AssignStruct> XML elements in the Workflow Manual, chapters “Reference | XML Element Reference” and “Customize Workflow Definitions | Defining Workflows | Subworkflows”.
