Default Client Event

Hello,


In K2 2003 I had a custom code module that did some Active Directory lookups.


Based on the location of a user, the URL for the tasklist was altered.


How do you this in BlackPearl ? If I click on "View Code - Event Item", a WWF layout is loaded. If I switch to code view, no reference to my URL for tasklist (as set in the wizard) is found ...


Any suggestions ?


Thanks,


Nicolas

If you click through the XOML you should be able to locate this within the "SendWorkToInternet" method.  I see the below method for one of my default client events:


        private void SendWorkToInternet(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            string strURL = K2.Configuration.InternetUrl;
            strURL = strURL.Replace("{SERIALNO}", K2.SerialNumber);
            K2.AddWorklist(K2.Configuration.InternetPlatform, System.Web.HttpUtility.UrlPathEncode(strURL));                    
        }
 


You should be able to put your URL generation logic here by overriding the value placed in strURL..

OK, thanks for the answer.


And what if I want to use my own custom c# component ? I think this can not be referenced in a blackpearl project, or should this c# component be exposed with smartobjects ? (not really read the details about that)

I managed to add a reference to a custom c# component.


However, when trying to run the workflow, an error occurs:


Could not load file or assembly 'My Assembly', Version=1.0.1.5, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=63e1f8899bc791ca' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified

We are aware of the problem in this regard - will be addressed shortly.  For now, I think if you copy the assembly to the '...HostServerBin' directory on the HostServer machine, your workflow should run just fine.


Edit: If the assembly is in the GAC on your development machine, you'll also need to add it to the GAC of the HostServer machine.

Hi NS,


This is a known isuue and have been logged to be fixed. An easy workaround is to add the 3rd party assembly to the K2Server's GAC or to create a deployment package on the client machine and move the package to the K2Server, deploying it there.

Hello,


I copied my dll to the hostserverin folder. I get the error: Object Reference not set to an instance of an object.


This is probably because my .dll requires a config file. Where must I put that config file, and what name should it have? (app.config ? myassembly.config ?)


Thanks,


Nicolas

Gert,


Can you explain "K2Server's GAC"? Do you mean the bin folder of the workprocess.


So the issue is fixed and pending hot fix release?


On a related topic. My workflow has 3 projects with guids. where do those assemplies end up. I'm trying to attach a debugger and the symbols never get loaded, and I assume that's because the .pdb file isn't in the correct place.

NS,


I would try using the blackpearl host server config:


     C:program Filesk2 blackpearlhost ServerinK2BlackPearlServerK2BlackPearlServer.exe.config


It is possible that it doesn't exist, so you may need to create it and restart the K2 service.

Thanks Bob, modifying K2BlackPearlServerK2BlackPearlServer.config did the trick.


Another handy tip from one of my colleagues.


You can put the .dll on a custom folder on your server. eg (c:mylibrariesk2)


Then add to your config file:


<runtime>
    <assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">
      <probing privatePath="c:librariesk2" />
    </assemblyBinding>
  </runtime>


And the appropriate .dll will work in your project.


Regards,


Nicolas
