WorkflowRuntime.WorkflowCreated Event

Definition

Namespace:

System.Workflow.Runtime

Assembly:

System.Workflow.Runtime.dll

Occurs when a workflow instance is created.

public:
 event EventHandler<System::Workflow::Runtime::WorkflowEventArgs ^> ^ WorkflowCreated;

public event EventHandler<System.Workflow.Runtime.WorkflowEventArgs> WorkflowCreated;

member this.WorkflowCreated : EventHandler<System.Workflow.Runtime.WorkflowEventArgs> 

Public Event WorkflowCreated As EventHandler(Of WorkflowEventArgs) 

Event Type

EventHandler<WorkflowEventArgs>

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use WorkflowRuntime functionality from a workflow host. The code associates the WorkflowCreated with an event handler, a method named OnWorkflowCreated.

This code example is part of the Custom Persistence Service Sample.

static void Main()
{
    using (WorkflowRuntime workflowRuntime = new WorkflowRuntime())
    {
        try
        {
            // engine will unload workflow instance when it is idle
            workflowRuntime.AddService(new FilePersistenceService(true));

            workflowRuntime.WorkflowCreated += OnWorkflowCreated;
            workflowRuntime.WorkflowCompleted += OnWorkflowCompleted;
            workflowRuntime.WorkflowIdled += OnWorkflowIdle;
            workflowRuntime.WorkflowUnloaded += OnWorkflowUnload;
            workflowRuntime.WorkflowLoaded += OnWorkflowLoad;
            workflowRuntime.WorkflowTerminated += OnWorkflowTerminated;
            workflowRuntime.ServicesExceptionNotHandled += OnExceptionNotHandled;

            workflowRuntime.CreateWorkflow(typeof(PersistenceServiceWorkflow)).Start();

            waitHandle.WaitOne();
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Exception \n\t Source: {0} \n\t Message: {1}", e.Source, e.Message);
        }
        finally
        {
            workflowRuntime.StopRuntime();
            Console.WriteLine("Workflow runtime stopped, program exiting... \n");
        }
    }
}

Shared Sub Main()

    Using currentWorkflowRuntime As New WorkflowRuntime()
        Try

            ' engine will unload workflow instance when it is idle
            currentWorkflowRuntime.AddService(New FilePersistenceService(True))

            AddHandler currentWorkflowRuntime.WorkflowCreated, AddressOf OnWorkflowCreated
            AddHandler currentWorkflowRuntime.WorkflowCompleted, AddressOf OnWorkflowCompleted
            AddHandler currentWorkflowRuntime.WorkflowIdled, AddressOf OnWorkflowIdled
            AddHandler currentWorkflowRuntime.WorkflowUnloaded, AddressOf OnWorkflowUnloaded
            AddHandler currentWorkflowRuntime.WorkflowLoaded, AddressOf OnWorkflowLoaded
            AddHandler currentWorkflowRuntime.WorkflowTerminated, AddressOf OnWorkflowTerminated
            AddHandler currentWorkflowRuntime.ServicesExceptionNotHandled, AddressOf OnExceptionNotHandled

            currentWorkflowRuntime.CreateWorkflow(GetType(PersistenceServiceWorkflow)).Start()

            waitHandle.WaitOne()

        Catch e As Exception
            Console.WriteLine("Exception \n\t Source: 0} \n\t Message: 1}", e.Source, e.Message)
        Finally
            currentWorkflowRuntime.StopRuntime()
            Console.WriteLine("Workflow runtime stopped, program exiting... \n")
        End Try
    End Using
End Sub

Remarks

The workflow run-time engine raises the WorkflowCreated event after the workflow instance is completely constructed but before activities are processed. For this event, the sender contains the WorkflowRuntime and WorkflowEventArgs contains the WorkflowInstance associated with the event.
