Interface ActionDescription

All Superinterfaces:

java.lang.Comparable<ElementDescription<?>>, ElementDescription<Action>, com.jbbres.lib.search.Searchable

All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaultActionDescription, ResourceBundleActionDescription, SimpleActionDescription, VariableActionDescription

public interface ActionDescription
extends ElementDescription<Action>

Provides information regarding the action, such as its name, a short description, its version number etc.

Those information might or might not be the same as the one provided by the element information property list and have various usage within the workflow definition process, but one of the strength of the ActionDescription over the element information property list is that it can provide information specific to an instance of the action, where the element information property list only provide general information regarding the Action class.
