An object of the ezcWorkflowNodeAction class represents an activity node holding business logic.
When the node is reached during execution of the workflow, the business logic that is implemented by the associated service object is executed.
Service objects can return true to resume execution of the workflow or false to suspend the workflow (unless there are other active nodes) and be re-executed later
Incoming nodes: 1 Outgoing nodes: 1
The following example displays how to create a workflow with a very simple service object that prints the argument it was given to the constructor:
