Add event catches

* New for 9.5 *

Add an event catch to an operation to react to the occurrence of the event while the operation executes. You can add up to four event catches to an operation, but you cannot add Exception event catches to operations.

If Operations include an Exception event catch, it is provided by default. You cannot replace exception event catches with other event catches.

After you add the event catch, you can specify which operation executes when the event occurs. (See Handling event catches ).

1. Drag the Event Picker from the Activity Toolbar to an empty corner of an operation or Activity element.

   

   After the event is attached to the operation, the operation looks similar to the following illustration.

   

2. (Optional) In the Name box, type a new name to replace the default name.

3. (Optional) To search for a specific event, replace the default string in the Find box with a value.

4. Select an event type from one of the event categories and click OK.

   Note: The Timer category appears only after you create and deploy at least one custom timer event. LiveCycle ES2.5 does not provide default system timer events. Custom timer events that are not deployed are listed in the current application category. (See Custom event types .)

5. In the Event Behavior Configuration dialog box, select Event Receive.

6. (Optional) Add event filters. (See Creating event filters .)

7. (Optional) Store event data to process variables. (See Storing event data to process variables .)

8. Click OK.
