Re: [OSWorkflow] Proposal for a Workflow.canInitialize with Inputs arg

Patrick,

The issue is opened on #WF-148.

BTW the method canInitialize not execute any validator.

Do you propose modify this method to execute the validators?

This is a good point. Though not clearly stated in the docs, it has been my
opinion that the restrict-to conditions should not depend on INPUTS, even
though they technically could. Instead, things that depend on inputs should
be _validators_, since they validate the input.

Open a case on this and we can discuss it more. Hani, how do you feel about
this?

Hi,

Should it exist a canInitialize public method with an Inputs argument?

Currently exist a private canInitialize which signature includes an Inputs
arg and it's called by the initialize method in order to check if the
workflow can be initizalized.

But you can't check if the workflow can be initialized in the same way by a
client class.

 So why no create a canInitialize method with the same arguments as
initilialize method?

If the proposal is accepted I can provide the patch
