Class Flow

org.mule.AbstractAnnotatedObject

org.mule.construct.AbstractFlowConstruct

org.mule.construct.AbstractPipeline

org.mule.construct.Flow

All Implemented Interfaces:

AnnotatedObject, FlowConstruct, MessageProcessorPathResolver, Pipeline, Disposable, Initialisable, Lifecycle, LifecycleStateEnabled, Startable, Stoppable, NamedObject, DynamicPipeline, MessageProcessor, MessageProcessorContainer, ProcessingDescriptor, StageNameSourceProvider

public class Flow
extends AbstractPipeline
implements MessageProcessor, StageNameSourceProvider, DynamicPipeline

This implementation of AbstractPipeline adds the following functionality:

• Rejects inbound events when Flow is not started
• Gathers statistics and processing time data
• Implements MessagePorcessor allowing direct invocation of the pipeline
• Supports the optional configuration of a ProcessingStrategy that determines how message processors are processed. The default ProcessingStrategy is AsynchronousProcessingStrategy. With this strategy when messages are received from a one-way message source and there is no current transactions message processing in another thread asynchronously.
