• The menus at the top.
• A user's list of workbaskets to the left.
• A list of workpieces in the workbasket and detailed information in the main frame. For more information, see Enterprise Workflow Workpiece Information Page.

JspMappingRules.xml Syntax

The sample file below includes the following tags:

• mapping-rules - The document root. All the other content must be within these tags.
• rules - There are three types: workbasketList-rules, workbasketTOC-rules, and workpieceInfo-rules. Each defines how that area displays in the web client. The web client finds the first rule tag that evaluates to true. Rules contain either a full UNC web path for the page to display, or another set of rules.

  Note: You must have one workbasketList-rules rule with an expression that is always true. This includes parameters that turn on or off certain features, such as whether to display the number of workpieces in the workbasket next to the workbasket name.

• expression - For each rule, a Java expression that is evaluated at run time. When true, the expression's value is the web path to the page, relative to the web application root (for example: http://server:port/WorkflowWebServiceClients/).

  For example:

  • To make the expression always true, use true.
  • To make the expression true only if the workbasket name is Jenny, use workbasketName.equals("Jenny").

    For information on how to construct a Java expression involving string components, look up Java expression syntax.
