Windows Workflow Design Patterns

Design patterns provide a common, repeatable approach to solving software development tasks, and many different patterns can describe how to accomplish a certain goal in code. When developers begin working with Windows Workflow Foundation (WF), they often ask about how to accomplish common tasks with the technology. This month I discuss several design patterns used in WF.

Ron Jacobs : CancellationScope Activity

How do you cancel work in your application? Many middle tier components and services rely on transactions to handle cancellation for them. This makes a great deal of sense because transactional programming is well understood. However there are many times when you must cancel work that cannot be done under a transaction. Cancellation can be very difficult because you have to track work that has been done to know how to cancel it. WF4 also includes compensation activities that can be used to do clean up work as well.
