Now live on CodePlex! The OpenXML Workflow Activities library. I've only just started out doing WF development and Office Open XML was a nice way to provide some business feel to my dabbeling around in this cool framework. I plan to provide a series of activities which provide great business value for working with Open XML in a workflow scenario. And since everything is a workflow, there can be plenty of places where this value is useful.
The library includes the following activities (most of 'em do not work yet)
- sign package
- validate package
- validate signatures
- embed custom XML
- extract custom XML
- set Author
- clean document (reviewing / comments)
These activities need access to the Package class that they need to work on. My current idea is to require these activities to be placed inside a 'scope' activity. There are two provided, the FileSystemPackageScope and the SharePointPackageScope.
Now to find someone who can take a small look at this library and tell me whether I suck a lot, or only a little at WF... (Marcel, this means you :)
