On Shutdown process starter
The On Shutdown process starter specifies a process to execute when
the process engine shuts down, after all process instances are
executed.
The On Shutdown process starter can be useful for specifying any
post-processing that must be done before shutting down the engine. For example,
your application may back up a database table then purge the data. Also, you
may wish to send email to administrators notifying them that the process engine
is shutting down.
Typically, you create one process definition that uses the On Shutdown process
starter and place all post-processing activities into that process definition.
However, you can have more than one process definition that uses the On
Shutdown process starter. All process definitions with the On Shutdown process
starter execute in no specific order when the process engine shuts down.

On Notification Timeout process
The On Notification Timeout process starter specifies a process to
execute when a timeout is reached for storing notification data for a
Notify activity
execute when a timeout is reached for storing notification data for a
Notify activity
On Event Timeout process starter
The On Event Timeout process starter specifies a process to execute
when a Wait For ... activity discards an incoming event due to a
timeout. A Wait For ... activity’s event timeout is specified by the
Event Timeout field on the Event tab of the activity.
The default behavior for an event timeout is to confirm and then discard the
event. You can override the default behavior by creating a process definition
using the On Event Timeout process starter.
You can specify an On Event Timeout process definition for a specific event source
(that is, a specific Wait For... activity). You can specify one or more On Event
Timeout process definitions for specific event sources, but you should not create
more than one process definition for the same event source. Once a Wait For...
activity experiences a timeout, that timeout can only apply to one On Event
Timeout process definition.
You can also specify that an On Event Timeout process definition applies to any
event source that experiences a timeout. If there is no On Event Timeout specified
for a particular event source, the process engine calls the On Event Timeout
process definition whose Any Event Source field is checked.

Null activity
The Null activity is an activity with no action performed. This activity
has a name and a description specified on the Configuration tab, but
there is no input or output for the activity.
This activity is useful if you wish to join multiple process flows. That is,
when you have multiple transitions out of an activity and each transition takes a
different path in the process definition, you can create a transition from the
activity at the end of each path to a Null activity to resume a single flow of
execution in the process.

Notify Configuration resource
The Notify Configuration resource specifies a schema to use for
passing data between executing process instances. Corresponding
Receive Notification, Notify, and Wait activities use the same
Notify Configuration resource to define the data for inter-process
communication. The schema can be empty, if you do not wish to pass data
between processes.

between processes.
Notify activity
The Notify activity allows a process instance to send data to a
corresponding process instance containing a Wait activity or Receive
Notification process starter. The Notify Configuration resource specified
on the Configuration tab and the key specified on the Input tab create the
relationship between the Notify activity and the corresponding Wait or Receive
Notification. The data specified in the Notify’s input is sent to the Wait or Receive
Notification that specifies the same Notify Configuration resource and has the
same value for the key.

Notification. The data specified in the Notify’s input is sent to the Wait or Receive
Notification that specifies the same Notify Configuration resource and has the
same value for the key.
Mapper activity
The Mapper activity adds a new process variable to the process
definition. This variable can be a simple datatype, a TIBCO
ActiveEnterprise schema, an XML schema, or a complex structure. You
can map data values from the current list of process variables to the
elements of the variable added with the Mapper activity.

ActiveEnterprise schema, an XML schema, or a complex structure. You
can map data values from the current list of process variables to the
elements of the variable added with the Mapper activity.
Lock Object
Lock Object shared configuration resources are used by Critical Section
groups to ensure that only one process instance executes the activities in a
critical section group at a time.
The Lock Object resource can be used to synchronize process instances
from more than one process definition in the same process engine, or it can be
used to synchronize process instances across multiple process engines.

critical section group at a time.
The Lock Object resource can be used to synchronize process instances
from more than one process definition in the same process engine, or it can be
used to synchronize process instances across multiple process engines.
Label activity
The Label resource allows you to create a generic label so that you can
provide documentation and comments in your process definition. The
Label is not an activity, because you cannot draw transitions to or from it,
and it does not perform any action. You use the label to create a
descriptive tag that you can place anywhere in a process definition

Job Shared Variable
A Job Shared Variable shared configuration resource allows you to
store data for use by each process instance. A copy of the variable
is created for each new process instance. This resource is useful for
passing data to and from sub-processes without creating an input
or output schema for the called process.
You can use the Get Shared Variable and Set Shared Variable activities to access
the data instead of mapping data to a called processes input or output schemas.
New process instances receive a copy of the variable, so data cannot be shared
across process instances. Therefore, if a called process has the Spawn
configuration field checked, a new process instance is created and the process
instance receives a new copy of the job shared variable.

JNDI Configuration
The JNDI Configuration shared configuration resource provides a
way to specify JNDI connection information that can be shared by
other resources. This resource can be specified in any resource that
permits JNDI connections. For example, JDBC Connection and
JMS Connection can use JNDI connections
way to specify JNDI connection information that can be shared by
other resources. This resource can be specified in any resource that
permits JNDI connections. For example, JDBC Connection and
JMS Connection can use JNDI connections
Inspector activity
The Inspector activity is used to write the output of any or all activities
and process variables to a file and/or stdout. This is particularly useful
when debugging process definitions and you wish to see the entire
schema instead of mapping specific elements to the Write File activity
and process variables to a file and/or stdout. This is particularly useful
when debugging process definitions and you wish to see the entire
schema instead of mapping specific elements to the Write File activity
Get Shared Variable activity
The Get Shared Variable activity retrieves the current value of a Shared
Variable or Job Shared Variable resource. If you are using this activity to
retrieve the value of a Shared Variable resource, you may want to use a
critical section group to ensure that no other process instances are
altering the value of the shared variable at the same time.

altering the value of the shared variable at the same time.
Generate Error Activity
This activity generates an error and causes an immediate transition to
any error transitions. If there are no error transitions, the process
instance halts execution. This activity is useful in a group or in a
called process. If you would like to catch and raise your own error
conditions, you can use this activity to do so.

called process. If you would like to catch and raise your own error
conditions, you can use this activity to do so.
External Command activity
The External Command activity allows you to execute an operating
system command. This activity waits for the command to complete
before transitioning to the next activity. Optionally, the command
output and any errors can be included in this activity’s output
schema, written to a file, or both.
system command. This activity waits for the command to complete
before transitioning to the next activity. Optionally, the command
output and any errors can be included in this activity’s output
schema, written to a file, or both.
Engine Command activity
The Engine Command activity allows you to retrieve statistics and
information about process definitions, process instances, and
activities in the currently running process engine. This activity also
lets you perform engine maintenance, such as suspending and
resuming process instances and shutting down the engine.
This activity uses TIBCO Hawk to perform the desired command. A direct call is
made to the TIBCO Hawk AMI method (no message is sent).
Before using this activity, the Hawk.Enabled property must be set to either true
or local. Also, some commands require memory and processor overhead for
gathering statistics or for getting information on the current state of the process.
Because of the performance implications, certain instrumentation is disabled by
default. You can enable instrumentation for a specific process or for all processes
with the Instrumentation property.

Custom Activity
The Custom Activity resource allows you to create an activity that
references a process definition. This is useful if you wish to develop
processes for others to use, but you also wish to hide the
implementation details of the process from users. The Custom
Activity behaves like any other TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks activity.
You can also package and distribute custom activities within custom palettes

processes for others to use, but you also wish to hide the
implementation details of the process from users. The Custom
Activity behaves like any other TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks activity.
You can also package and distribute custom activities within custom palettes
Confirm activity
The Confirm activity confirms any confirmable messages received by
the process instance. For example, if a process is started because of the
receipt of an RVCM message, the Confirm activity can send a
confirmation message to the publisher of the RVCM message.
the process instance. For example, if a process is started because of the
receipt of an RVCM message, the Confirm activity can send a
confirmation message to the publisher of the RVCM message.
Checkpoint activity
The Checkpoint activity performs a checkpoint in a running process
instance. A checkpoint saves the current process data and state so that it
can be recovered at a later time in the event of a failure. If a process
engine fails, all process instances can be recovered and resume
execution at the location of their last checkpoint in the process definition. If a
process instance fails due to an unhandled exception or manual termination, it
can optionally be recovered at a later time, if the process engine is configured to
save checkpoint data for failed processes.

Catch activity
The Catch activity receives control of execution when an unhandled
exception occurs. You can select a specific exception type to catch or you
can specify that this activity should catch all unhandled exceptions. You
can have more than one Catch activity in each exception scope, but each
Catch activity must have a unique exception type.
The Catch activity allows you to transition to activities you wish to perform to
handle the exception. Transitions are permitted between Catch tracks within an
exception scope, but you can not transition back to the main execution track from
the Catch track.
If you wish to propagate the caught exception to the next highest scope, use the
Rethrow activity.

Call Process activity
The Call Process activity calls and executes an existing process
definition. The input to the called process is defined in the Start
activity of the called process. The output of the called process is
defined in the End activity of the called process
definition. The input to the called process is defined in the Start
activity of the called process. The output of the called process is
defined in the End activity of the called process

what is middleware
Middleware is computer software that connects software components or people and their applications.
The software consists of a set of services that allows multiple processes running on one or more machines to interact.
This technology evolved to provide for interoperability in support of the move to coherent distributed architectures, which are most often used to support and simplify complex distributed applications.
It includes web servers, application servers, and similar tools that support application development and delivery. Middleware is especially integral to modern information technology based on XML, SOAP, Web services, and service-oriented architecture.

what is 2 tier architecture
Question: Two-Tier and Three-Tier Architecture?
Hi,
I want know about 2-tier architecture and 3-tier architecture. Please explain me with some examples.
Answer
Basically 2 tier architecture : This has 2 parts namely client (front
end) and database (back end).The window application
generally developed in this technology
3 tier architecture :
1 Client-front end (request is given through client)
2.business logic :Middle layer (protocols are used for
processing the request)
3. Database :back end (response is given to the client)
Web applications are good examples for 3 tier architecture

What is the purpose of the inspector activity ?
What is the purpose of the inspector activity ?
The Inspector activity is used to write the output of any or all activities and process variables to a file and/or stdout.
This is particularly useful when debugging process definitions and you wish to see the entire schema instead of mapping specific elements to the Write File activity.

Services can be invoked in several ways.
A one-way operation is executed once and does not wait for a response.
A request-response operation is executed once and waits for one response. In a request-response service, communication flows in both directions.
The complete interaction consists of two point-to-point messages—a request and a response. The interaction is only considered complete after the response has arrived.
Publication (notification) means an operation sends information on an as-needed basis, potentially multiple times.
Subscription means incoming information is processed on an as-needed basis, potentially multiple times.

TIBCO Designer
TIBCO BusinessWorks is a scalable, extensible, and easy to use integration platform that allows you to develop, deploy, and run integration projects.
TIBCO Designer is the graphical user interface (GUI) for defining business processes.
BusinessWorks can help you specify the business logic and automate the processing of the interaction between the systems in your enterprise. This allows you to reduce the time to implement an integrated, enterprise-wide computing environment and ultimately lower the cost of deploying and maintaining the system
An ideal solution for handling business process automation would be a tool that can handle the different environments and applications and allow you to create programmatic business rules easily. That tool should also allow you to automate your business processes for the greatest efficiency.
TIBCO BusinessWorks allows you to model business processes with a graphical tool. You can use the BusinessWorks process definition palette to diagram complex business logic easily. Once the business rules have been specified, BusinessWorks can execute the business processes, allowing you to easily automate the critical functions of your business.
Starting TIBCO Designer:
Click start->programs->Tibco->Designer_version
TIBCO Designer Administration
Startup panel Administration options
TIBCO Designer Interface Overview:
Main Window
- Project panel
- Design panel
- Configuration panel
- Palette panel
TIBCO Designer - GUI
TIBCO Designer - Panels
Project Panel - A project contains resources that implement the enterprise integration. Ex- SharedConnections, ProcessDefinition
Palette Panel - Palettes organize resources and allow you to add them to your project. You select resources in the palette panel and drag and drop them into the design panel to add them to your project.
Design Panel - The design panel displays the current resource selected in the project panel. The contents of the selected resource are shown in the design panel. For example, if you select a folder, its contents is displayed
Configuration Panel - The configuration panel allows you to specify various configuration options for each resource. The type and the purpose of the selected resource determine the contents of the configuration panel.
Process definition
A process definition is the graphical representation of your business process.
You develop and test process definitions using TIBCO Designer.
The process definition is executed by a TIBCO BusinessWorks process engine.
A process engine creates instances of process definitions.
These process instances automate your business process.
-- Activities
-- Transition
-- Groups
-- Shared Configuration Resources
-- Sub Processes
Activities are the individual units of work within a process definition. Activities are available on the various palettes within TIBCO Designer. Each palette has a set of activities that can be performed for that palette.
Transitions describe the flow of processing within a process definition. A transition is represented by an arrow between two activities. The arrows are unidirectional, and you cannot draw a transition to a previously executed activity. Control flow in a process definition must proceed sequentially beginning with the Start activity (or a process starter) and ending with the End activity
- Create File
- Remove File
- Write File
- Read File
FTP
- FTP Put
- FTP Get
JDBC
- JDBC Query
- JDBC Call Procedure
- JDBC Update
Mail
- Send Mail
Groups - To create sets of activities that are to be repeated. You can repeat the activities once for each item in a list, until a condition is true, or if an error occurs
Shared Configuration Resources - are specifications that are shared among activities. These are resources, such as database connections, WSDL files, schema definitions, and connections to other servers
Subprocesses - Business processes are often very complex and it is difficult to diagram the complete process in one process definition. You can create several smaller process definitions instead of one monolithic process definition. You can then call each process definition from another process definition, when necessary. When you call a process definition, the called process is known as a subprocess
Process Variables
Process variables are data structures available to the activities within the process. Process variables are displayed in the Process Data panel of each activity’s Input tab.
There are four types of process variables:
- Activity Output
- Predefined process variable
- Error Process Variable
- User – Defined Process Variable
XPath
XPath (XML Path Language) is an expression language developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) for addressing parts of XML documents.
TIBCO BusinessWorks uses XPath (XML Path Language) to specify and process elements of data schema. These data schema are either process variables or input schema for an activity. You can also use XPath to perform basic manipulation and comparison of strings, numbers, and booleans
The XPath formula builder
Entering the testing environment starts a TIBCO BusinessWorks engine. The engine starts process instances based on the process definitions stored in your project.
You can select one of the running process instances to display in the design panel, and the currently executing activity is highlighted as the process instance runs.
