Difference between Actor and Role #9

Hi there are 2 very confusing items in your documentation page, Im hoping you can clarify it.

There is Actor settings, Name, Value and Rule:

Is this the same as a role in ASP MVC, or is it a user, how does correspond to the ASP MVC user. So why does it only get one rule, I thought a roles/actor can have a full collection of rules
What is the relationship or difference between Commands Actions and Transitions
What is the diff between IWorkflowActionProvider and RuleProvider
On serverside you have public ActionResult API(), but there where to get the change in state etc Post/ back to the controller

Do you have a valid license with support?

sergy79 commented 8 years ago

@patagoniahiker Just switch over to

Stateless - fully free and very easy, then attach to jsplumb UI for free version, send me msg, I will email you some code to start.
Nservicebus, also free for 3 servers / company with full support for 3 servers

This is a poor choice, the documentation and service are booth very bad :-1:

patagoniahiker commented 8 years ago

@dmelnikov I'm am trying the free license version, do I need something else to run that, am I missing something.

@sergy79 I like the stateless its very simple, how can I get the progress to the task, does the stateless object support that?

dmelnikov commented 8 years ago

@patagoniahiker I'm glad that you look this project. But you must understand - support isn't free even you're using a version with free limits.

@sergy79 please, don't mislead other users. WFE has well and fully documentation. This documentation is better than for "Stateless". And, please, don't tell about services if you didn't purchase those services. Thanks.

Its a simple question, your documentation did not explain it. Your own site says the free version is fine. Your Tuple<> are over complicating, are very hard to follow or debug without documentation.

dmelnikov commented 8 years ago

The free version is fine for non-commercial and non-critical systems. It's truth.

A documentation can't give answers to any questions. For this case, we offer the support service.

sergy79 commented 8 years ago

you notice he removed some the documentation hahaha

dmelnikov has a horrible attitude :-1: actually this is similar case with many of companies from Russia they good at coding, but very unfriendly and poor customer sense, poor communication.
