Java Service Process Engine Readability
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current service process frameworks, such as Activiti, are cumbersome and difficult to maintain due to poor readability and debugging performance, especially in cloud platforms, which hinders efficient service process execution and maintenance.
Innovation Solution
A service processing method that creates a process instance for UI requests, determines the target process instance based on execution state, and executes corresponding methods from a register compiled according to a preset development specification, ensuring high readability and maintainability by using a simple and reliable workflow-focused approach.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If Activiti framework with XML-based service process is used, then rich and powerful functions are achieved, but device complexity and difficulty of maintenance increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the core workflow execution logic from the complex Activiti framework and implements a simplified version using only Java code. It takes out the essential process instance creation, method execution, and state management functions while removing the bulky XML configuration and complex framework overhead, achieving the same service process functionality with much lower complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates a simplified copy of the workflow engine functionality. Instead of using the full Activiti framework, it implements a lightweight Java-based process execution engine that copies only the necessary components: process instance management, method registration and execution, and state tracking, thereby maintaining functionality while reducing complexity
2Adaptability or versatility
If Activiti framework with XML-based service process is used, then rich and powerful functions are achieved, but ease of operation and debugging performance deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent substitutes the XML-based configuration system with a pure Java code-based system. Instead of using XML files for process definition and configuration, it uses Java classes, methods, and annotations to define and execute service processes, making the code more readable, easier to debug with standard Java tools, and more consistent with Java development practices
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements self-contained Java classes that encapsulate entire service process logic. Each service process is represented by a Java class with executable methods, allowing developers to read, understand, and debug the process logic directly in the source code without needing to interpret XML configurations or use specialized workflow tools

AI summary
Disclosed are a service processing method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a computer-readable storage medium. The method includes: when receiving a User Interface (UI) request, creating a process instance corresponding to the UI request, and storing instance information of the process instance in a storage module (S101); determining a target process instance from the storage module, and determining a step to be executed of the target process instance based on target instance information of the target process instance (S102); searching, from a register, and executing a target method corresponding to the step to be executed, wherein the register includes all methods compiled according to a preset development specification (S103).
