Dears ,
How do i debug a flow that contains a timeoutnotification node ?
Do i have to deploy my flow everytime to recieve the trigger for starting the message flow (after the debugger is attached)
OR
is there any other way to start the trigger from the notification node ? |

The flow which starts with Timeout notification node will trigger on each interval it is been configured (Timeout Interval property). So you can keep it it on debugger and wait for next trigger to come.
Also it will trigger whenever you deploy/redeploy the flow. |

IMHO this is not always true. It will trigger when the flow is started. You can re-deploy to a stopped flow (in some versions) and the newly deployed flow will not start until an explicit start command is received.

Every time you reinvent the wheel the more square it gets (anon). If in doubt think and investigate before you ask silly questions. |

Agree... Messsage Broker v8 has the capability to configure and control the runstate of the message flow or application with help of new Start Mode property. |

Sorry guys , this is not what i was looking for ..
i was wondering if there was any way to trigger this flow externally through system.timeout queues or a test client or anything of that sort .
keeping repeated cycle does not help , as i might be debugging and the other trigger arrives..
BTW i am on version 7 and depolying everytime for the node to sent out is rather annoying ... |

Use an input node of some kind to feed a control node. |
