Cancel out of Application

Question

Hi,
We have WD form we are calling from GP. We are implementing a cancel button and stuck with the functionality. Already created a sdn post on WD Java forum no results. We thought since the call to the form originates from a GP interface may be you guys have an experience about how to cancel out of the app.
Here is the scenario - GP initiates a process calls formA - PM reviews it and submits it for developer review - developers opens it for a review but in the middle is short of time and want to cancel out of the form so can come back to it later again. So devloper is only trying to close out of the app. We have implemented a cancel button.
Should we need to call a complete method on interface? Or is there any other method there which cancels the current action but leaves the tasks uncomplete?
Please in need of urgent help, your immediate replies to this will be much helpful.
Thanks
Shahid

Hi Sahid,
Nothing needs to be explicitly done to cancel. Just leave the screen, click somewhere else, close the browser. GP doesn't hold the state of the action when a user opened it as long as the "complete" is not triggered. In other words, the "processingComplete" method in the IGPExecutionContext is the only one that "tells" GP that the action is completed.
In the above mentionned link, the "cancel" possibility is more or less to influence the process flow (in this process, to break the loop).
To sum up: To leave the task uncomplete, just leave it
Hope this helps.
Best regards,
David
