         Hi,
        I need to develope BAM for existing production projects. Some project have looping in orchestration.
        I am new to BAM dev. Could you give me some idea on how can I  build this?

        I did some research on web and SDK. According to research, I guess I need to create 2 activities, one for parent and other one for inside loop. I need to related them somehow. I dont know how can i do that without touching projects.
        It looks like I have to do some coding in each project’s orchestration to relate both activies, but i cannot do that since it will be too much work to modify all the projects and release them on production again. (Pleae correct me if i am wrong)

        Could you help me to solve this issue?

        Thank you in advance,
        Siva

          If you’re dealing with looping, and need to capture something within the loop, you’ll have to change the orchestration to use the BAM API (http://blogs.msdn.com/richardbpi/archive/2006/03/29/564114.aspx).  Don’t think there’s any way around that.

               Thank you Richard,

              I followed that link, however I dont see any record under the “related activities” on BAM. I used the msgID as ActivityID for parent activiy and used that in AddRelatedActivity.

              I have the following before loop start:

              msgID = inputMsg(BTS.MessageID);

              Microsoft.BizTalk.Bam.EventObservation.OrchestrationEventStream.BeginActivity(“Process Activity”,msgID);

              In side  the loop, I have following coding

              Microsoft.BizTalk.Bam.EventObservation.OrchestrationEventStream.BeginActivity(“ProcessLoopActivity”,singleInvoiceMsg.InvoiceNumber);

              Microsoft.BizTalk.Bam.EventObservation.OrchestrationEventStream.UpdateActivity(“ProcessLoopActivity”,singleInvoiceMsg.InvoiceNumber,”Begin”,System.DateTime.Now,”DocID”,msgID);

              After mapping donw I have following

              Microsoft.BizTalk.Bam.EventObservation.OrchestrationEventStream.UpdateActivity(“ProcessLoopActivity”,singleInvoiceMsg.InvoiceNumber,”EndSuccess”,System.DateTime.Now);

              Microsoft.BizTalk.Bam.EventObservation.OrchestrationEventStream.AddRelatedActivity(“ProcessLoopActivity”,singleInvoiceMsg.InvoiceNumber,”Process Activity”,msgID);

              Microsoft.BizTalk.Bam.EventObservation.OrchestrationEventStream.EndActivity(“ProcessLoopActivity”,singleInvoiceMsg.InvoiceNumber);

               

              I have map for both acivity as well. I deployed them too. I have seprate view for both just for testing purpose. I could see records under the ProcessActivityLoop view but not under the “Process Activity’s related actvity section.”

              Am I doing anything wrong here?
